How to Block Calls on an Android Smartphone

[@dannylaw7367]

Great video....I didn't know this update for this feature was now available!! I spent an hour trying to find a good call blocker that DID NOT SPAM me, or send more ads or cost me more money, and then I found I don't need to download anything OR buy one. THANK YOU very much. Good, worthwhile video!

This was very useful, thanks! Since my phone is new, I was very lost.

[@JohnSmith-gy4qj]

Thanks mate. Its a good simple technique if I remember it. but after a call i wish a screen would pop up and give that option after each call.

[@arrianranger5800]

Great information just a bit fast for those who are no longer as fast as they used to be.

same shit happening with me I dont wanna see the name of blocked person on screen.....annoying....

[@wandasanes]

for real.... lol

[@markpaycer6908]

If there blocked you wont see there number. Why cant people understand the difference between blocked and rejected. A reject call will go to voice mail. Or you wont hear it. That is not blocked.

[@hf1850]

[@Acc0rd79]

just block the actual numbers that are spam calling you, the 3 dots next to where their name would be if they were a saved contact. This is an old video, android has been updated.

[@sufiabdullah3024]

It is because u don't have any blocked numbers if u have it will state on your phone block list

[@RolfHartmann]

Well none of this is on my phone. Thanks for wasting my time.

[@williampennjr.4448]

It does matter because his suggestions won't work anyway. Call blocker doesnt work unless you put your phone on Do Not Disturb. You can set it to only recieve calls in your saved numbers list.

[@295jl]

There is a much simpler way to block unwanted calls. Go to settings, scroll to sounds, then scroll to Do not disturb. Click on that & you will see a button to turn on/off. Turn on. Below you will see allow exceptions. From there you can control what you will allow your phone to block any unwanted calls. If you are expecting a call from someone not on your list then temporarily turn it off. Otherwise they will leave a voicemail which you can check at your leisure. I have 2 Samsung phones & it works perfectly

[@studduck990]

That isn't a legitimate block. The calls still come. The phone just doesn't ring.

[@jayc7219]

thank you so much sir, i haven't used android device in almost 5 years and just bought an Xgody D10 i couldn't figure out how to block calls like on ios iPhone 5s i downloaded the app like you suggested in your video, thanks, i installed it hopefully it will block all those US government grant offers and telemarketers trying to sell me things i don't need, thank you so much for making this, i hope you can make a video on showing a newbie like me work with android lollipop OS or can you recommend a easy to understand guide or another video so i can learn how to use this phone, thanks again, your rock \m/ \m/

Fantastic. Got the info I was looking for. Thanks Subbed

Thank you I have a stalker that found my phone number I'm a kid and he was a adult this will help me alot you saved my life

[@fionajohnson7312]

The Ethan Diaz hi

[@williampennjr.4448]

None of these will work if you dont put voicemail on Do Not Disturb. There is no way to block calls with voicemail still on. Luckily I figured this out and to only allow calls from my phone book to ring. Now if robo callers try to call, my phone won't ring and it won't go to voicemail. You have to do both to block calls.

[@JewellAmber]

This does not block calls. It simply blacklists their calls but they can still leave voice mail which is what I'm trying to keep my blocked people from doing.

[@tanrose8645]

Same! (They shouldn't be permitted to make contact at all & therefore, NO voice mail! 😒)

[@lowkirby6490]

Thx it work because my dads phone theres a person calling him but he doesn't know what he is he told me to block it and it work thx

[@jimhalloran7329]

Hi. Thanks for the info. The video did not say this method would also block text messages from the number I just added to the auto reject list. Doe sit block text as well, or is there something else I need to do? Thanks again. Jim

[@adriennem9832]

Does not voice n text. I need block 4ever. But on verizon it blocks 90 days. You have to reblock.

[@SagaraUrz]

I just stopped on your channel and I subscribed because I absolutely love it... I have a question for you maybe you do have a video about.I used Google voice to call to Europe on my cell phone but now I purchase new cell phone and I can't transfer Google voice to my cell phone because I don't remember password which I set up a few years.... What I supposed to do,should I cancel Google voice account on my computer open new one and now I don't know how to transfer to my cell phone

[@HelpingMind]

Default call block system is old in your video. Have any updated video about default call block on android.

[@tonebeatz24]

Great now I can block my boss since I'm quitting my miserable job I hate. Screw the 2 wks notice 🤷‍♂️

[@ThankYouESM]

Awesome! I did this the hard way around 2005 which I made a new copy of my vCard and from a Python script I wrote had it add every number from a website and even generated more that very much starts with a 7-digit pattern if local... or 4-digit pattern if long-distance, but... some of those calls always made my call answering service full. Free cruise trips... duct cleaning... pool cleaning... surveys that I do not get paid for... non-English bots...

[@classynella337]

Is getting anybody'snumber blocked actually a hardcore bad thing or not really 🤔

[@Edward135i]

I clicked on this just to look at that old S5, WOW have phones changed!

[@BeeTammo]

Is there a way to use a second voice mail greeting for the rejected phone #, like a recorded dial up tone?

[@akiexlir7734]

Thank you! this caller keeps calling me saying she knows me but i dont

[@dirkgriggs3353]

I use Verizon Smart Family which lets you block out 20 number at the network level, i.e. even if they block their outgoing caller id, the call will not still not ring through and they cannot text you either and you can't call or text them (you wouldn't want to anyway). You can also block email addresses, screen names, etc. I used this in two jobs to prevent co workers trying to get their shifts covered from reaching me. Stupidly, these jobs did not let you call the shift straight off without getting it covered. Of course, as the requestee of coverage you had no obligation to cover any shift, but you would be amazed at the stories people death-chained to a shift would make up. Personally, I don't want to hear it. More importantly, I just never wanted to do it, and in the 2 years I have used this, no call such as this has successfully reached my phone!

[@volvobilbe]

The options you suggest don't seem to be on my screen. Phone will let me delete unwanted numbers, but not block them.

[@dadeleemurphy85]

I got it done in less than 2 seconds. thanks.

[@galesimons5142]

[@steveschindler2802]

I was hopeful for a solution to my unwanted calls issue with this video but unfortunately none of these tips seem to work for me with my pre paid verizon service and lg transpyre phone. In fact I have not found a solution anywhere. Even when they say go to the verizon website and block up to 5 calls I can't do it. Most of the features or options are simply not there as described and if they are they simply don't work. It is a very good and simple to understand video so I hope it helps a lot of people. The only thing that worked for me is a sort of fix and it doesn't really block calls but at least my phone doesn't ring. First I assign each unwanted number a caller ID of Z and a number (Z1, Z2 etc) This keeps all my unwanted numbers under the "Z" tab so they don't get in the way in my contacts list. Then I downloaded a ringtone app and selected a silent ringtone and assigned this ringtone to any number I don't want to answer. Like I said it doesn't block the calls but the phone won't ring. I have my phone on vibrate so it still does that when the call comes in and the number still shows up on my message bar as a missed call and in the recent calls log but its a small inconvenience. I know carriers don't give pre paid customers the same level of service or the same perks and options as their contract plan customers in hopes that we switch to a ridiculously expensive plan but I am not going to give verizon any MORE money just so they give me the service they should be providing anyway.

[@andreweide4948]

I have a Samsung Galaxy Android phone. I have the phone app and the three dots but I don't have call history or block numbers from that menu item. So...I still have to ask how I block an incoming call when I want to block them?

[@JohnSmith-fw5dm]

My nuisance callers seem to change the last two digits of their number. So potentially you would have to block hundreds of numbers. Is there a work a round for this problem?
