Stop call blocking or spam features

I am having a telephone hearing, and I need to stop any car blocking or spam. Features on my phone for the day of my hearing. I cannot miss this call. It is very important. How do I do that?

Without knowing what call/spam blocking apps you may have installed, any answer may be incomplete.


  • Go to Settings>Phone>Silence Unknown Callers and turn it off.
  • Swipe down to access the Control Center and tap on the icon on the Focus button to turn off any notification filtering you may have enabled.

  • If you know the number in advance, add it to your contacts.
