You may have thought of blocking some of the contacts on your iPhone when they bombard you with frequent calls. However, you can\u2019t cut off connections with them, as you may still want to receive texts from the numbers you want to block.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this article, we\u2019ll discuss different ways to do this and provide a step-by-step guide on how to stop calls on your iPhone without blocking a contact.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to Stop Spam Calls on iPhone Without Blocking Contacts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Here are the steps you can follow to stop receiving calls on your iPhone without blocking any of your contacts:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Solution 1: Turn on Airplane Mode<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Airplane Mode disables your device\u2019s cellular capabilities and puts it off the grid, jamming and blocking all network signals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are two ways to enable Airplane Mode on your iPhone \u2013 via the Control Center and the Settings.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the first option, swipe down from the top-right corner of your screen to open the “Control Center”<\/em>. Then, find the “Airplane Mode”<\/em> icon and tap it to turn it on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alternatively, open the “Settings”<\/em> app and tap the “Airplane Mode” <\/em>switch to turn it on. This will do the trick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Important Reminder:<\/strong> When Airplane Mode is enabled on your iPhone, no one from your contacts can text or call you. However, you can still use your device\u2019s Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. Learn more about how Airplane Mode on Apple devices works<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Solution 2: Enable the “Do Not Disturb” Mode<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

“Do Not Disturb”<\/em> allows you to still receive calls, texts, and other notifications without you iPhone ringing, vibrating, or lighting up in response. To enable “Do Not Disturb”<\/em>, open “Settings” <\/em>on your iPhone and go to “Do Not Disturb”<\/em> and switch it on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can also do this from your iPhone\u2019s “Control Center”.<\/em> If you can\u2019t find this menu, try tapping on the “AssistiveTouch” <\/em>on your screen. Then, hold the “Focus”<\/em> button <\/em>until it says “Do Not Disturb”.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
