how to check block calls on iphone

Many Users are facing issues regarding how to check block calls on iPhone. If you've blocked someone on your iPhone, it's likely because they were calling you unnecessarily—whether it's spam, harassment, unknown numbers, or someone you no longer wish to contact. 

A blocked call occurs when a phone user prevents specific numbers from reaching them. When a number is blocked on an iPhone:  

- The caller cannot ring through (goes straight to voicemail if enabled).  

- The blocked caller won’t appear in your recent calls or missed calls list.  

- If they leave a voicemail, it may appear under "Blocked Messages" in the Voicemail tab.  

Here’s how to check blocked calls or missed calls on your iPhone,These steps work above iphone 14, iphone 15 iphone 16 all models follow these steps:

Checking Missed Calls

1. Open the Phone App

   - Tap the Phone icon on your home screen.

2. Go to "Recents"

   - Select the Recents tab at the bottom.

3. Look for Missed Calls

   - Missed calls appear in red with a "Missed" label.
