How can I unblock someone?

Answered by Robert Flynn

To unblock a number on your phone, follow these steps:

1. Open your Phone app: Locate and open the app on your device. It is usually represented by an icon with a telephone receiver.

2. Tap More: Look for the “More” option within the app. This is typically represented by three dots or lines arranged vertically, usually located in the top right or left corner of your screen.

3. Tap Settings: Once you access the “More” menu, scroll down and tap on the “Settings” option. This will open the settings menu for your phone app.

4. Find Blocked numbers: Within the settings menu, search for an option called “Blocked numbers.” The location of this option may vary depending on your device and its operating system, but it is usually found under the “Calls” or “Advanced” section.

5. Select the number to unblock: In the “Blocked numbers” section, you will see a list of all the numbers you have blocked previously. Find the number you want to unblock and tap on it to access its settings.

6. Clear the number: Once you open the settings for the blocked number, you should see an option to “Clear” or “Remove” the number from your blocked list. Tap on this option to proceed.

7. Confirm unblocking: A confirmation prompt may appear to confirm your decision to unblock the number. Review the information and tap “Unblock” or “Confirm” to finalize the process.

8. Verify unblocking: After unblocking the number, it is a good idea to double-check if it has been successfully removed from your blocked list. You can do this by navigating back to the “Blocked numbers” section and ensuring the number is no longer listed.

By following these steps, you should be able to unblock a number on your phone and start receiving calls or messages from that particular contact again.

Please note that the specific steps may vary slightly depending on your device and its operating system. If you encounter any difficulties or cannot find the mentioned options, referring to your device’s user manual or contacting the manufacturer’s support team may provide further assistance.
