Are you sick of spam calls on you Android phone? Here are several ways that you can block annoying spam calls on your Android phone.



Unwanted calls are such an unfortunate inevitability in life. Whether you are getting too many robocalls or someone from your past would not leave you alone, you might be wondering how to block unwanted calls.

We will at least show you how to block calls and texts on your Android phone by using a variety of methods.

How to Block Numbers on Your Android Device

Android has an in-built option for blocking some phone numbers. This is a good option if a particular number keeps on calling you. We would go through the process in this section. If your device does not have all these features, try installing the Google Phone app.

To block a number that has recently called you, open your Phone app and switch over to the Recent list. Press and hold on a number, then click on the Block/report spam from the menu that comes up.

In the window that comes up, check the Report the call as spam box if it is applicable; this is not necessary if you only want to block the number for some personal reasons. Hit the Block again to confirm your choice.

To block a particular number that is not in the Recent list, tap on the three-dot menu that is at the top-right of the Phone app and choose on Settings. From the list, select Blocked numbers. From here, you can see all the numbers that you have blocked and you can remove any from the block list, if it is needed.

Click on “Add a number” to type out a phone number that you want to block. If you turn on the Unknown slider at the top of this page, your phone would block calls that show up as Private, Unidentified, or similar writing. Since the name can be a bit confusing, you should be aware that turning this on would not block all calls from numbers that are not in your contacts list.
