We’ve all been there. You block a number in a moment of frustration—after a spam call at 6 AM, a string of annoying texts from a ex, or a heated argument with a friend. But time passes, feelings cool, and you realize you need to let that person back in.
The question is: How do you actually undo that block?
Don’t worry. Unblocking a number is quick, painless, and takes less than 60 seconds. Here is your step-by-step guide for both iPhone and Android. Before we dive in, understand this: Unblocking a number does not restore old messages or call logs. Once you unblock someone, they can call and text you going forward, but any messages they sent while blocked will not magically appear in your inbox. They’re gone for good.
