Block Unknown Calls On iPhone 7 And iPhone 7 Plus (Caller Block Solution)

For those that own Apple’s iPhone 7 or iPhone 7 Plus, you may want to know how to block unknown calls on this smartphone. In this day, everyone is used to getting what can seem like an endless stream of spam callers or telemarketers calling you all the time. For some people, it may actually be an endless stream of unwanted callers. Below we’ll provide a few different methods to block unknown numbers on the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus.

The quick method to block any phone number on your iPhone7 or iPhone 7 Plus would be to go to Settings, tap on Phone, and select Blocked. It’s important to note that if you want to block an unknown caller, you need to first create a contact for that person.

Caller blocking on iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus

Method 1:

  1. Turn on your smartphone.
  2. Open Settings.
  3. Tap on Do Not Disturb.
  4. Switch the Manual toggle to ON.
  5. Now you can allow only calls that you want from your contacts list.

Method 2:

  1. Turn on your iPhone 7 or iPhone 7 Plus.
  2. Tap on the Phone app.
  3. Go to Recent Calls.
  4. Copy the Unknown Caller number that you want to block.
  5. Go to Contacts.
  6. Tap on the + sign, which will allow you to create a new contact.
  7. Paste the previously copied number in the fields provided and set any name you want for this blocked number.
  8. Tap Done.
  9. Now there will be an option to block this caller.

Method 3:

Another suggestion would be to copy the unknown person that is calling and paste them in the blocked caller list on your phone. Here you won’t have to enter any numbers, but whenever your phone gets a call from a caller with an UNKNOWN caller ID it will be blocked. If you frequently find yourself in the position of waiting for a call that might pop up as being unknown, then this method might harm more than it helps.

Method 4:

The final recommendation would be to download an app like TrapCall from the Apple App Store as a caller block on iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus. This app will block unknown callers when “No CALLER ID” is shown on calls.

After you use one of the methods listed above, you should be able to block unknown callers on iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus, and this will hopefully help reduce the number of telemarketers and spam callers contacting you.
