Blocking text messages prevents your phone from receiving text messages from a specific number. There are several reasons why you might want to do this, such as stopping spam or cutting ties with someone.

Fortunately, you don’t need a special message blocker to do this; you can block text messages on iPhone and Android using the settings built into those devices. However, the method you use to block numbers will differ depending on the app you’re using to send messages.

Another way to prevent a number from texting you is to log in to your carrier's website. There you can access your account and block messages.

There are multiple ways to block texts on iPhone. When you do this, you will not only block text messages from that number, but also phone calls and FaceTime calls.
