How to Block a Phone Number on Android

Step by Step

1. Use the platform's official app or website and confirm you are signed into the intended account.
2. Open the number/conversation in the Phone or Messages app and use the Block/report controls; exact wording varies by device.
3. Review privacy, audience, recipient, or recovery settings before confirming important changes.
4. For account-security problems, secure the associated email account and enable two-factor authentication when available.

If That Doesn't Work

• Social-media menus and features change frequently and can differ by device, account type, region, and app version.
• Do not send money, passwords, one-time verification codes, or sensitive personal information to an account merely because its name or photo looks familiar.
