Same problem. Blocks every call, contacts or otherwise. Contacted RK Support but complete waste of time. They are unable to find my subscription and offer no assistance in eliminating this nuisance APP. Short of doing a factory reset there doesn't seem to be any way to avoid this utterly frustrating intrusion on iPhone use/enjoyment.


Following RK instructions on deactivating the BLOCKING after having removed the APP simple does NOT work. Endless aggravation. WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND ROBOKILLER as support is as useless as their product is disgusting.


If anyone learns how to deactivate the BLOCKING/SILENCING activity of ROBO KILLER after the APP has been removed, PLEASE SHARE the Step by Step of "HOW TO." Grateful!

INSTRUCTIONS FOR IoS/iPhone:

Yes, it can block all of your calls whether they’re in your contacts or not & is an absolute pain to fully remove. The first step is to delete any call blocking app from your phone’s carrier as that’s usually the conflict.

REMOVE ROBOKILLER Completely from Phone:

1) , delete the app. 2). Unsubscribe 3). In Settings go to Do Not Disturb, scroll down and change Calls to Everyone. 4). In Settings—Do Not Disturb. Under Phone change to Allow Calls from Everyone 5). In Settings—Phone: Call Blocking & ID & turn to OFF then to Call Blocking & ID: turn Silence Junk Callers OFF (while in there make sure Call Identification Apps are off & that RoboKiller isn’t listed) then SMS/Cell Reporting is set to NONE. 6). Settings—your name—Subscriptions: make sure RoboKiller plans are showing as Inactive.

Do a soft reset by powering off phone & turning on again. Have someone not in your contacts call you.

iF all of this still doesn’t work call your carrier’s technical support, allow them to see your phone & let them help you. That’s how I was *finally* able to fully remove RoboKiller. They do not make it easy in the hopes you’ll give up & keep their app 😬

Good luck!
