Iphone 11 blocked contacts

I have not blocked any contacts in several years, yet my doctors office was blocked, something I would never do of course. I missed an important call and message. Why would that happen and how would I know if I missed other important calls? I don’t always know what phone # an official government or medical call might come from so looking at blocked calls might not be helpful.

iPhone 11, iOS 16

If you feel an unauthorized person/app is remotely using, controlling or monitoring your device, then that is possible only if you have done one or more of the following Don'ts...


  1. Don't hand over an iPhone to kids or to a stranger without Enabling Guided Access
  2. Don't share Apple IDs
  3. Don't Jailbreak
  4. Don't share sensitive information pertaining to your device
  5. Don't give in to Phishing
  6. Don't plug in your device in Airports and Public places through third-party cables and trust the device. Beware of Juice Jacking. (Especially in India)
  7. Don't leave your iPhone unlocked and unattended in public places like offices, schools, malls, etc.


If one of the above is true then quickly change the Apple ID Password and Return iPhone settings to their defaults.
