Hi everyone, in front of me I've got Xiaomi 12 and let me share with you how to block
0:11
a number on this device. So basically we've got two different ways to block a number
0:16
First of all you can block a contact, so the number which is currently saved on your device
0:19
on your contact list, and you can block a number which you will enter manually
0:24
And of course I'll show you both options. So maybe let's begin with decontacts
0:29
So let's open your contact list, for example using the dialer, find the contact you would
0:33
like to edit, or maybe actually not really edit, but block, and tap on it
0:38
Now we have to tap on this 3, that's taken in the right upper corner, and as you can
0:42
see right here we've got block numbers option, so let's tap. Here your device is informing you that it will no longer receive any incoming calls
0:49
or text messages from this number. I don't want to report it as spam, so let me untick this option
0:55
And if you are ready, just tap on block. And as you can see here we've got the info, we can also see this characteristic icon
1:01
which means that we just successfully blocked this number. Of course you can unblock it the same way, just by tapping on this 3 dots icon, and tapping
1:08
on unblock numbers, but let me leave it like this, we will check if it will actually appear
1:13
on the block list. So now let's go back, and now let me show you another way to block a number, as I said
1:22
block it manually, let's say. So in the second way, it doesn't really matter if it will be on the contacts, recents or
1:29
the favorites, just tap on the 3 dots icon in the right upper corner again, and enter
1:34
the settings. Here in the general section on the third position we've got blocked numbers, so let's tap
1:40
And as you can see right here we've got our block list, and this is the number we just
1:45
blocked from our contacts. So everything went fine, we've got it on our block list, it is blocked
1:51
And as I said, you can block a number manually from this step, so simply tap on add a number
1:56
and as you can see right here you can enter it, so you do not really have to have the
2:01
number currently saved. Just tap on block, and as you can see it will immediately appear on the block list
2:07
What's more you've got the option unknown, and you can activate it just by tapping on
2:11
the switcher, and it's quite cool because your device, thanks to this option, will block
2:16
calls from all unidentified callers. Of course you can turn it off the same way
2:21
And if you'd like to unblock the number, just tap on this X button right next to it, and
2:25
tap on unblock. So basically that's all, this is how to block a number in your Xiaomi 12
