How to block a phone number on a Samsung mobile

The first mobile that we are going to use is a terminal from the Korean brand Samsung. The procedure is similar in all brands and very simple to execute. The first thing we are going to do is the following.

Open the phone app of your mobile phone.

We look for the phone that we want to block and click on it. The window will expand and a series of icons will appear. Click on 'Info'.

Within 'Info' we are going to press the three-point menu that we see located in the upper right part of the screen. In the pop-up window that appears, we must click on 'Block contact' and that's it, this number will no longer bother you.

How to block a phone number on a Huawei mobile

Now it is the turn of the Asian brand Huawei. This is how we block a number on a mobile of this brand.

• We proceed as in the previous Samsung case, going to the phone or contacts application and looking for the number we want to block. In this case, we will send the number to a ' black list ' in which all the numbers that cannot contact you will be.
• Once the number is located, we look at the bottom of the screen and select the 'plus' icon, represented by three vertical dots.
• On the screen below we select the option 'Add to the blacklist' and that's it.

How to block a phone number on an iPhone mobile

• If your thing is the manzanita and there is a phone number that does not stop bothering you, this is what you have to do to say goodbye definitively.
• We are going to enter the phone application and look for the phone we want to block.
• Then, we are going to press the small 'i' icon that we have right next to the phone. A new window will open in which we can block the contact. Once done, we will not receive any more calls or messages from it, as well as communication through Facetime.

How to block a phone number on a Xiaomi mobile

If yours is the Chinese brand Xiaomi, these are the steps you have to do to block a phone number forever.

• Open the phone application, the one you use to make calls, and search the list of calls received (or issued, you never know).
• Find the phone number you want to block. Next to it you can see a small arrow that you will have to press to access more options related to this phone number.
• On the next screen, we have to look at the bottom where it says 'Block'. Click and a confirmation window will appear. We press it and voila, we already have the phone locked forever.

Applications to block contacts and phone numbers

Call blocker

An application that you can download in the Google Play store, free, without ads and quite light, since its download file has a weight of 3 MB. With 'Call Blocker' we will be able to block phone numbers even if we don't have them added to our phonebook. For it to work, of course, we have to give permission to our call log and our contact list.

Once the application is open, we go to the second tab 'Black list' and, at the bottom of it, we press the green button 'Add'. We can add phone numbers to the black list from the call log, from the contact list of our phone or by entering the phone number directly. In the red button 'delete' we are going to remove the phone number that we want from the black list. Of course, the telephone numbers must be copied and pasted by hand since the law does not allow applications to read, directly, the list of personal contacts.

Should I answer?

With this application, exactly, we will not only be able to block the numbers but we will also be able to know if the number that calls us is spam, so that we can later decide whether to take the call or not. Should I answer? is a free application, without ads and with an installation file of about 10 MB. In this video you can see better what this useful application is about, which has a great rating in the Play Store.

On the first screen, the application tells us the permissions it needs to function and why it needs those permissions. One of the changes we have to make is to use this application by default to make calls. Once the permissions are given, our phone call log will open. If you click on one of the phones we will have detailed information about it, as well as options to block, evaluate the phone so that other users can see who it is as well as read the reviews of other users.
