Block unwanted callers in FaceTime on iPhone
You can block FaceTime calls or Group FaceTime calls from unwanted callers, and silence calls from unknown callers.
Block a one-to-one FaceTime call from an unknown caller
When you receive an unwanted FaceTime call from an unknown caller, you can block the caller (iOS 17.4 or later).
Do one of the following:
In your FaceTime call history or during a FaceTime call, tap
next to the caller you want to block, then tap Block Caller.
In your FaceTime call history or in the Recents list in the Phone app, swipe left on the call, then tap
.
Tap Block.
Block a Group FaceTime call from unknown callers
When you receive an unwanted Group FaceTime call from unknown callers, you can block all participants by doing one of the following (iOS 17.5 or later):
While the call is ringing: Tap the left side of the notification to expand the window, tap
at the top of the screen, then tap Block All Participants.
During a Group FaceTime call: Tap
at the top of the screen, then tap Block All Participants.
After a Group FaceTime call has ended: Go to your FaceTime call history or the Recents list in the Phone app. Swipe left on the call, tap
, then tap Block All Participants.
The option to block all participants doesn’t appear if the Group FaceTime call includes someone in your contacts list.
Silence FaceTime calls from unknown callers
Go to Settings > FaceTime > Silence Unknown Callers, then turn on Silence Unknown Callers.
This setting ensures that you’ll receive FaceTime calls only from your saved contacts, people you’ve called before, and people suggested by Siri. Calls from unknown numbers go to voicemail and are displayed on the Recents list.
