You can block someone on Phoner to stop receiving calls and messages from them. When you block a phone number or contact, they can still dial your number or send out a text from their end, but they will not be able to get through and their messages will not be delivered to your device.
Your contact will not be notified when you have blocked them. You can also unblock your contact at any time that you wish, for instance if you are ready to exchange communication with your contact again.
To block a number from reaching your Phoner number:
From your Contacts
- Launch the Phoner app
- Go to the ‘Phone’ tab
- Enter the contact number that you wish to block
- Tap the three dots at the top right of the screen and you should see the Call Control menu for your contact

- Once your contact is blocked, a message should appear letting you know that your contact has been blocked.
- To unblock your contact, simply tap 'Unblock'.
