Every person who has a mobile phone is sure to get spam calls or calls from people they want. There are many techniques to block an unwanted call. If you have an Android phone then there are few ways to block a number that you don’t want to have a call from. However, you can only block a number but not the person. They can use other numbers to call you and you have to manually block all the numbers that they use to call you. Let me teach you some techniques to block those numbers.
Guard your privacy
- To block spam phone calls then you must make sure that you guard your number well. Android phone or not, never share your number in websites that is not trustable.
- You surely have seen many mobile games or internet games that want your phone number to send you the score or more game news. Don’t ever give them your phone number. Protection is way easier than to block a number.
- When you meet a person, don’t give him or her phone number easily. Make sure you trust a person well before sharing your phone number.
Call blocking apps
- If you have an Android phone then you can use apps that help to block a number. Remember that you have to assign a number to these apps to block that. If the unwanted call is from a private number then your Android phone apps will not be able to block that call.
Send to voice mail
- The best thing about an Android phone is that it has many features that you can use for almost any of your needs. Most of the Android phones have an option to send specific numbers to the voicemail. It’s not actually a way to block a number but the result is all the same.
- When you have a particular number in mind to block then go to the options of that particular number and turn on the option to send it directly to voice mail. The option may not be same for different android phones but you will surely get an option to do that.
