Android s will have inevitably blocked a few phone numbers over the years, but is there a way to see a list of all blocked numbers on a smartphone? Android devices can automatically reject calls from unknown numbers or identified spam numbers. When enabled, the feature blocks these numbers without any effort from the . Alternatively, s can manually block phone numbers they don't want to interact with from the Phone app.
If s want to review a list of phone numbers they've blocked on their Android phone, the method to do this is quite straightforward. Open the Google Phone app and tap on the three-dot menu button. Tap Settings and select 'Blocked Numbers.' This opens a list of all the numbers blocked on the smartphone. Here, s can view the numbers in the block list, add new numbers from their s or call log, or remove any numbers they want to unblock.
How To Unblock Numbers On Android
To remove a number from the block list, tap the 'x' button to clear it, and then hit 'Unblock' or the '-' symbol next to the number. s can also unblock numbers from their call log or s list. To do this, find the phone number or and tap on it. Tap the three-dot menu icon, and then select 'Unblock' or 'Remove from blocklist.'
While the Phone app is the default dialer on Android, some s prefer using third-party apps like Truecaller which provide advanced spam call filtering. To view a list of blocked phone numbers on Truecaller, open the app and tap on the 'Block' icon which looks like a shield with a checkmark. Select 'Manage Block List' to view a list of all the blocked numbers. Tap the '-' icon next to a phone number to unblock it.
Like Truecaller, the Google Phone app provides additional (though less advanced) call filtering options, including inbuilt Caller ID and spam protection. To enable this feature, open the Phone app, tap on the three-dot menu, hit Settings, and then tap 'Spam and Call Screen.' On the following screen, switch on the 'See caller & spam ID' toggle. Additionally, s can turn on 'Filter Spam Calls' if they want to block spam calls by default.
When this feature is switched on, s don't get missed calls or voice notifications for blocked calls, but the app displays filtered calls in the call history. Those who use Truecaller can also view a list of calls received from blocked numbers. To do this, open the app, tap the three-dot menu in the top right corner, and select 'Blocked Calls.' This displays a list of all the calls from blocked numbers on the Android phone.
