Re: Blocking unwanted text messages
I use this method too. However, I usually have to swipe down to info double tap it and then another dialog box thing opens and then I have to swipe down to info again and double tap it and then the block option appears. However, there are some messages usually those with multiple numbers to which there does not appear to be a block option. Does anyone know how to block these particular spam texts? > On Apr 7, 2022, at 10:10 PM, Christopher Chaltain > wrote: > > > Sure, just follow these steps. > Double tap on the message thread in your list of messages to open up the > message or list of messages from that number or contact. > At the top of the list of messages from that number or person is a button > labeled with the number or contact’s name.
