Currently, Apple offers no one-step solution to blocking calls from unknown numbers on your iPhone. And there are plenty of work-around tips on the web that don't really solve the problem. However, I discovered one option that does. Here's how to block calls from unknown numbers.
As stated, there is no direct setting to fix this problem. So, what you do is use Do Not Disturb to your advantage. You simply set Do Not Disturb to a 24-hour schedule and allow calls only from your contacts. Here's how:
-
Open Settings.
-
Tap Do Not Disturb.
-
Select Allow Calls From.
Share this tip with a friend:
-
Choose All Contacts under Groups.
-
Return to previous menu and toggle on Scheduled.
-
Set schedule to a 24-hour period.
Now, your Do Not Disturb function will automatically stay on and only calls from your contacts will make a sound. Every other phone number will be silenced, which is something to keep in mind. However, since there isn't a setting for blocking calls, this is the best way I've found to set it up yourself.
Why not choose apps to block annoying callings? and to protect your information?
