I’m trying to unblock a number I inadvertently blocked months ago. I have hundreds of blocked numbers which seem to be in random sequence. How do I search or sort the blocked number list?

I am assuming that you do not have the owner name of that blocked number in your contacts. If you did then in the Blocked Numbers list, all you need to do is look for that name and then remove that number from the list. May have been easier to find.


How about we try something (which I have not tested). Add a new contact with any name and list that phone number as that contacts phone. Save the contact. Then Open Settings ➔ Phone ➔ Blocked Contacts : See if that contact that was just created appears in the list with the name that you had given. If you see it then remove it from the blocked list.
