I know do not disturb means that in the phone settings. We'll see what Apple Accessibility has tsay since there is nothing else even close that I can find. I got that from some directions on the web on how to block text messages from someone not in your contacts. O well. Richard

Further to that, they will be able to see that I have read their messages, particularly if the feature is enabled in settings messages.

I just wrote Apple accessibility to double check, but I think it is basically the same steps only with different labels. Open the text message you want to block. Double tap on the "more info" button in the upper right. Then find the "do not disturb" button and toggle it to on. I think do not disturb is the same as block, but time will tell.

Facetime, fair enough, you can use the same method. I mainly want to block and unblock contacts in iMessage, that think it's a good idea to annoy me badly enough to block them. I don't use contacts, so this individual happened to also not be in the contacts. But with the phone, I have just found no ways.

I'm not sure my explanation went through. You do not have to add to contacts first. In the phone app, double tap on recents, find the call you want to block, flick up with one finger more information or flick right to more information then double tap. Touch in the bottom left corner on favorites, do not double tap, just touch to get focus there, then flick left with one finger and you are on the block contact button. Double tap and confirm and it is blocked.

IOS9, (the iPad, I mean, as it's on IOS9) the block button is there. I have no ideas, however, whether sighted can see it or not.

You know, since upgrading to IOS 10, I haven't been able to find that either. In 9, I used to be able to find and select the number and flick down with one finger to find the block caller action on which to double tap. Since 10, I can't find that selection anywhere. We shouldn't have to go all the way into contacts to do this when we have not made the call a saved cotact , and I don't plan to save to contacts just to be able to block the caller. I am receiving calls from solicitors and don't want their calls. Dianne and Hibiscus -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list..
