Adding a New Rule

 

Specify a group of phone numbers or a person. All unknown numbers will include the phone numbers not saved in your contact list. You can use this option to block unwelcome phone calls (e.g. "cold calls") or to prevent kids from dialing unknown numbers. The All known numbers option refers to all phone numbers saved in your contact list. Hidden numbers will apply to callers that have their phone number intentionally hidden via the Calling Line Identification Restriction (CLIR).
 
Specify which should be blocked or allowed:
 

  • outgoing calls
  • incoming calls
  • incoming text messages (SMS) or
  • incoming multimedia messages (MMS)

 
To apply the rule for a specified time only, deselect Always at the bottom and select the dates and times for which you want to apply the rule. By default, all days of the week are selected. This functionality might come handy if you do not want to be disturbed during the night or during the weekend.
 
NOTE: If you are abroad, all phone numbers entered in the list must include the international dialing code followed by the actual number (e.g., +1610100100).
