Hi everyone! In front of me I've got OPPO A17 and let me share with you how to
0:05
block a number on this device. So basically we've got two different ways
0:14
to block a number and the first one is the way to block a number from your
0:19
contact list so the one which is currently saved or on the second way to
0:23
block a number let's say kind of manually just by using the dialer settings and of course I'll show you both options and I'd like to begin with
0:30
the contact list so let's open your contacts for example and by using the
0:34
dialer and here let's find the contact we'd like to block and tap on it now
0:40
let's tap on the three dots icon in the right upper corner and tap on block
0:44
numbers your device will ask you if you really want to do it so so just tap on
0:49
block I don't want to report it as a spam and as you can see right here we
0:54
can see this characteristic icon what's more it is said that this number is
0:58
blocked which simply means that you will not receive any incoming calls or text
1:02
messages from this number of course you can unblock it the same way just by
1:06
tapping on the three dots icon and tapping on unblock but let me leave it
1:11
like this we will check if it will actually appear on the blacklist so now
1:14
let's go back and as I said I can show you the second way of blocking a number
1:18
and this way is kind of manually so you don't have to have the number saved and
1:23
here it doesn't really matter if you will be on the contacts reasons or the
1:27
favorites just up on the three that's again in the right upper corner and enter the settings as you can see in the general section we've got blocked numbers
1:35
so let's enter and this is our blacklist and that's the number we just blocked
1:40
from our contacts which simply means that the blocking option simply worked
1:43
and sorry as I said in this way you can add a phone number manually so simply
1:49
tap on this option and as you can see you can simply enter the number tap on
1:55
block and it will immediately appear on the blacklist once more here we've got
1:59
the option unknown which can be quite useful activated just by tapping on the
2:04
switcher and thanks to this your device will be allowed to block the calls from
2:08
all unidentified callers so as I said it may be useful in in some situations of
2:15
course you can turn it off the same way and if you'd like to unblock the number
2:19
just tap on this X button right next to it so basically that's all this is how to
2:25
block a number in your oppo a17 thank you so much for watching I hope that
