How to Stop WhatsApp Calls From a Specific Person Without Blocking
While WhatsApp allows you to block contacts to prevent calls and messages entirely, you might not want to go that far for certain individuals. Fortunately, you can stop calls from specific contacts without blocking them completely by removing the person from your contact list and enabling “Silence Unknown Callers” in WhatsApp.
This will allow WhatsApp to block calls from that person and other unknown callers while allowing you to receive messages. Here’s how to do it on your Android or iPhone
On Android
Step 1: Open the Contacts app > find the contact you want to delete > tap on it.
Step 2: Tap the three-dot menu icon at the top right > select Delete > choose Move to Trash to confirm.
Step 3: Open WhatsApp > tap the three-dot icon at the top right > select Settings > Privacy.
Step 4: Select Calls and enable the Silence unknown callers option.
On iPhone
Step 1: Open the Contacts app > tap the contact you want to delete.
Step 2: Tap Edit at the top right > scroll down and tap Delete Contact > select Delete Contact again to confirm.
Step 3: Open WhatsApp on your iPhone > tap Settings at the bottom right > go to Privacy > Calls > enable Silence unknown callers.
You can repeat these steps for additional individuals if needed. This way, you can block calls from certain people while still receiving their messages. It’s important to note that WhatsApp will display notifications for these silenced calls.
Since your phone won’t ring for these calls, they won’t bother you. However, if you call the silenced number, WhatsApp will not automatically mute future calls from that person, even if they are not added to your contact list.
