Can a contact be blocked (actually disabled) from texting, while still being able to call?
Is there any way I can block texts from a person without blocking their calls? I know I can turn off alerts. I know I can block the contact entirely. That isn’t what I mean. I want to prevent a contact from being able to text me in the first place, but still allow their calls. I think everyone probably has relatives or friends they wish they could do this with. There are people who will blow me up with 10,000+ character texts, when it would be so much easier and faster to just call. Of course, it seems many people these days don’t know how to have a verbal phone conversation. It’s become a lost art, like the ability to drive a car with manual transmission. Regretfully I updated to iOS 26.1, which is bloody awful, but that’s a whole other issue.
