Managing your denylist
The Denylist is a list of phone numbers that you do not want to receive calls from. To block a call, add a phone number to the list. Contacts added to the denylist will not be able to contact you anymore. You can add numbers to the denylist via the contacts on your phone or manually.
On devices with Android 9-12, adding a number to the denylist automatically also adds it to the contacts list on your device.
If you want to unblock a contact, remove it from the denylist. You will receive calls from this contact again.
If you have a phone with two SIM cards, Call Filter does not block incoming calls on the second line.
