Do you find yourself getting annoying messages from unknown numbers on your iPhone X? Don't worry, we've got you covered with an easy solution to block those pesky texts. Blocking messages from unknown numbers is a breeze with a few simple steps on your iPhone X.
First, open the Messages app on your iPhone X. Once you're in the app, find the message from the unknown number that you want to block. Tap and hold on the message until you see some options appear on your screen. From the options, select "More."
After tapping on "More," you'll see even more options pop up. Look for the "Block this Caller" option and tap on it. A confirmation window will appear asking if you're sure you want to block this number. Confirm by tapping "Block Contact," and just like that, you've successfully blocked messages from that unknown number on your iPhone X.
But what if you want to proactively block messages from any unknown number without having to wait for a text to come in? No problem! You can set your iPhone X to filter out messages from unknown senders automatically.
To do this, go to your iPhone X's Settings app and scroll down until you find "Messages." Tap on "Messages," and then scroll down again until you see "Filter Unknown Senders." Turn on the toggle switch next to "Filter Unknown Senders," and your iPhone X will now automatically filter out messages from unknown numbers, keeping your inbox free from unwanted texts.
In addition to blocking messages, you can also block unknown numbers from calling you on your iPhone X. To block a caller, go to your Phone app, find the recent calls list, and tap the "i" icon next to the unknown number you want to block. Scroll down and select "Block this Caller" – it's as simple as that!
Blocking messages and calls from unknown numbers can help you maintain your peace of mind and keep your iPhone X free from undesirable communication. Whether it's spam, harassment, or just unwanted messages, taking control of who can contact you is empowering and easy to do on your trusty iPhone X.
Remember, if you ever change your mind and want to unblock a number you have previously blocked, you can always do so by going to your list of blocked contacts in Settings. Simply swipe left on the number you want to unblock and tap "Unblock."
With these simple steps, you can take charge of your messaging experience on your iPhone X and ensure that only the contacts you choose can reach you. Happy blocking!
