Hi everyone, in front of me I've got a Samsung Galaxy Tab Active 5 and let me
0:05
share with you how to block a number on this device. So let's start with opening your contact list because first of all
0:16
I'd like to show you a way of blocking the number which you've got currently
0:20
saved and after that I'll show you another way. So after entering the
0:24
contact list just find the contact you'd like to block and tap on it and now we
0:29
have to tap on more so the three dots icon. Now let's tap on block contact and
0:34
your device will ask you if you really want to do it because you will no longer receive any incoming calls or text messages from this number. So let's
0:41
simply tap on block and as you can see here we've got this tiny characteristic
0:45
icon which shows us that this number has been blocked. Of course we can unblock it
0:50
the same way just by tapping on this option but let me leave it like this because I'd like to show you that it will appear on the blacklist which will
0:56
enter in the second way. So here it does not really matter whether we'll be on
1:00
the contacts, recents or the keypad. We have to simply tap on the three dots icon
1:05
right here so let's tap on it and then tap on the settings. Right here at the
1:11
top we've got block numbers and as you can see this is our blacklist with the
1:16
contact we blocked in the previous way so as we can see it also works. Right
1:21
here we can also tap on the contacts and here we can mark a lot of them so if
1:27
we've got a lot of contacts to block it is a better way to do it than manually
1:32
We can also block it from the recents or tap on this section and easily
1:37
enter the phone number. You can paste it if you've got it copied and tap on done
1:41
and finish just by tapping on this plus icon and as you can see it will
1:45
immediately appear on the blacklist which again means that you will not receive calls or text messages. Here you've got also block spam and scam
1:53
calls. Of course you can turn it on just by tapping on the switcher right here
1:58
and then on the switcher under it and you can customize it it's up to you and
2:06
block calls from unknown numbers just by tapping on the switcher you can
2:10
activate it. So it's up to you whether it is useful or not you can turn it off
2:15
and if you want to unblock the number just tap on this minus icon and it will
2:19
immediately disappear. Alright so that would be all thank you so much for
