After a phone is blocked, the blocked caller cannot reach you through calls or texts. Their calls are typically redirected to voicemail, and texts might not be delivered. They won't receive a notification that they've been blocked. You won't receive notifications for these attempts either, providing privacy and peace of mind from unwanted communications. To unblock, navigate to your phone's settings or contacts app and remove the block.
