1. Go to your phone's Settings
2. Tap 'Messages'
3. Tap 'Unknown & Spam'
4. Select 'Blockr'

If Blockr has already been selected, please email support@blockrapp.co for further assistance.

The app doesn’t need to be open or active in the background once it’s properly set up – you can just leave it to do its thing.

You can force close the app, though force quitting frequently used apps is not advised. Apple states that force quitting apps should only be done if an app is unresponsive. It might cause more battery drain when relaunching them.

The text might be from a number you've previously responded to more than 3 times, or one incorrectly identified as not spam that is still in the 'iMessage/Contacts & SMS' section.

You will need to delete the conversation before Blockr can block new messages from that number.

Our service is constantly learning and improving.

If you see a spam text that we missed, you can email support@blockrapp.co with the phone number and the text. We will add it to the block list.

First, open your phone's Settings and go to the 'Phone' section, then select 'SMS/Call Reporting'. Select Blockr on the screen that follows to ensure we receive any reports that you make.

Once you have completed these steps, you can report spam messages to us by simply tapping Report Message below the text you want to report.

The sender's information and the message is sent to us, and the message is deleted.

You must then open Blockr and update your block list with the number. Afterwards, the sender won't be able to text you again.

Blockr includes a call blocking extension that gives your iPhone a list of known spam and scam numbers, plus any numbers you block yourself. Your iPhone checks that list and stops those calls before your phone ever rings.

Your contacts are never blocked, and everything happens on your phone.

1. Open your phone's Settings
2. Tap 'Phone'
3. Tap 'Call Blocking & Identification'
4. Turn on 'Blockr'

The Blockr app also walks you through this during setup, on the Calls tab.

Open the Calls tab in Blockr and tap 'Block a number'. Enter the number and it is added to your personal block list. That caller won't be able to ring you again.

You can review or remove blocked numbers any time from the Lists tab.

No, and that's by design. Your iPhone stops blocked calls silently, so your phone never rings and nothing interrupts you. Apple doesn't tell apps about calls it blocked, so there is no call-by-call history.

The Calls tab in Blockr shows your protection status and how many numbers you're protected from.
