Mobile Security for iOS uses a built-in database of known scam numbers to automatically block fraudulent phone calls and filter scam text messages into designated folders. If a trusted phone number is mistakenly blocked, flagged, or filtered, you can allow it by adding the number to your Allowed Numbers list.
Only allow phone numbers you trust by adding them to the Allow list to ensure they are not blocked again.
