After we have learned how to block calls on an iPhone, many users might also find it interesting to know how to find out if any of our contacts have decided to block our phone number from their iPhone. In this way we will be able to know if the reason that our contact does not answer our calls is because he is really busy or because he has decided to block us so that he never knows anything about us again.
All we need to carry out this tutorial is a member of the range smartphone iPhone from Apple. Even one of the ideas that we indicate below can also be carried out from a mobile from any other manufacturer, so that we are also facing a valid tutorial for other operating systems.
How to know if someone has blocked our phone number on an iPhone
The first thing we must do to check if someone has blocked our phone number is to call that person from our mobile. This is an obvious step in which if we get a single touch as a response (followed by the automatic end of the call) we should start to have certain suspicions about the person we are calling.
But, far from being automatically a call blocking, there is also the possibility that the person we are calling has their phone turned off or has simply decided to divert incoming calls to another number that is not available at the time. Therefore, we are going to try to find out if we have been blocked by following these steps:
- First of all we must activate the hidden call mode on our iPhone. To do this we enter the Settings application, select the " Telephone " option and click on the " Show caller ID " option. The most common is that this option is activated by default, so we simply deactivate it by clicking on the white circle.
- From now on our calls will be completely anonymous to the people we call. We can only call the person who we believe has blocked us and, in the event that we obtain the usual ringtone, we will have been able to confirm that that person has blocked us from their mobile.
Another somewhat more obvious solution would be to call our contact using a different telephone number, although it is a remedy that is not available to users who do not have two telephone lines. For this reason, the solution that we explain in this tutorial turns out to be the simplest for all those who want to check from their own mobile if a contact has blocked their phone number. Hopefully anyone who decides to use this tutorial is aware that, in the event that it has been blocked by a contact, there is probably a good reason that justifies it.
