How To Block Calls On Android 6.0 Marshmallow

For those that have upgraded to Android 6.0 Marshmallow, you may want to know how to block calls either from an individual or from unknown callers. There could be several reasons why you want to block calls on your Android Marshmallow smartphone, especially since more and more spammers and telemarketers contact people on their smartphones now.

How To Block Calls From All Unknown Callers

One main issue is that your smartphone gets calls from unknown numbers. The best way to block these calls is by going to the “Auto reject list” and selecting the option to block calls from “Unknown callers” on Android 6.0 Marshmallow. All you need to do is switch the toggle ON and you’ll no longer be bothered by callers who block their incoming number.

How To Block Calls From Individual Caller

Another method you can use to block an individual number or contact on your smartphone working on Android M 6.0 is by going to the Phone application. Tap on Call Log and select the number you want to block. Then select “More” in the top right corner, and then “Add to auto reject list.”

How To Block Calls From The Auto-Reject List 

A common way to block calls on Android 6.0 Marshmallow is by going to the Phone app itself. Once you get to the Phone app, select “More” in the top-right corner, followed by “Settings.” The second option in the list should be “Call rejection.” That’s where we’re headed. So, tap. Now tap “Auto reject list.”

Once you get to this page you can enter a phone number or a contact to block on your Android Marshmallow 6.0 smartphone. In addition, if you have blocked anyone in the past, those numbers will show up here as well, so it’s an easy place to remove folks from the rejection list if you want.
