To unblock a number on WhatsApp, follow these steps:
- Open the WhatsApp application on your phone after unlocking it.
- Click on "More".
- Click on "Settings".
- Click on "Blocked numbers".
- Click on "Delete" next to the number you want to unblock.
Once you have unblocked the number, you can use it to exchange messages, make calls, and view status updates.
To restore a blocked contact on WhatsApp, follow these steps:
- Click on "More options" and then "Settings".
- Click on "Account" and then "Privacy".
- Choose "Blocked contacts".
- Find the contact you want to unblock and tap on it.
- Finally, click on "Unblock contact".
After unblocking the contact, you will be able to use it to exchange messages, make calls, and view status updates.
If you block a mobile number from your phone’s contact list on iPhone and Android, you will usually receive notifications indicating that someone has tried to call you. However, you will not be able to receive their calls.
You can use a trick to call a number that has blocked you without changing the system settings. You can do this by typing the code #31# before the phone number you want to call.
To block calls, go to the "Settings" menu, choose "Apps and notifications", "Advanced", and "Default apps". Then, tap on the "Phone" app and select the default call management app, such as "Phone (System)".
If you have an Android smartphone, press on the name of the blocked contact. Then, in the pop-up box, select "Unblock" [blocked contact’s name].
From the main screen, select "Blocked calls and texts" and then "History". Now, you can click and hold on the blocked messages you want to restore. After that, click on the menu icon at the top and select "Restore in Inbox".
Go to the phone’s settings, then "Accounts", and then "Google". This will indicate the date of the last backup and whether synchronization is active or not. The contact will magically appear on WhatsApp after syncing the contacts.
A busy signal often indicates that someone is answering the phone or that the phone is off the hook. In these cases, the signal indicates that there are no technical obstacles preventing the call, but the call cannot be completed because the phone is in use.
To find out if someone has blocked you on WhatsApp, look for the following signs:
- The date and time of the last access are not visible.
- The profile picture cannot be viewed.
- The double blue checkmark does not appear.
- Calls cannot be made.
- Contacts cannot be added to a group.
When the service is started, the line is automatically active for each call. To remove the line, type 33# or dial 4711. To restore the line, you can type #33 + personal code + # or dial 4710 + personal code.
A temporary block can last for one or more days, and a timer on the app’s home screen shows the duration.
At the bottom of the main chat screen, you will find the WhatsApp archive, which is both simple and ingenious. When you find the list of chats and groups, simply scroll down to find the "Archived Chats" option (x). The number in parentheses shows the number of chats archived on WhatsApp.
