Unblock Text Messages [2021] -

Unblocking text messages is a quick fix found within your device’s Settings or Messaging app. Remember that communication is a two-way street—if you have unblocked someone and still aren't getting texts, it is possible they have blocked you in return, or there is a network issue. However, following the steps above resolves 99% of blocking-related issues.

This guide will walk you through unblocking contacts, retrieving filtered messages, and troubleshooting why texts might not be coming through even if you haven't manually blocked the number.

On an iPhone, blocked numbers are managed within the Settings app. When you unblock someone, they will be able to send you iMessages and SMS texts immediately.

If you're using an iPhone, follow these steps:

| Issue | Fix | |-------|-----| | Can’t find “Blocked Contacts” | Use search in Settings for “blocked” | | Still not getting texts | Check if you blocked them on a call-blocking app (Truecaller, etc.) | | iMessage vs. SMS | Unblocking fixes both, but check “Send & Receive” settings on iPhone |

: Tap Edit in the top right, then tap the red minus (–) circle next to the contact and select Unblock . How to Unblock Text Messages on Android
