How to use the Block List and the Allow List?

Your personal Block List is a key feature in TrapCall that helps you prevent unwanted spam, scams, and harassment. Here’s how it works and how to manage it.

👉 How does the Block List work?

When someone calls you from a number on your block list, they’ll hear a message saying that your phone number has been disconnected and is no longer in service. The call will then disconnect, so they can’t leave you a voicemail.

If you’ve enabled Spam Protection, calls from blocked numbers won’t even ring on your phone.

👉 How to add numbers to your Block List

• On your iPhone, go to the Block List tab
• Select Add
• Enter the phone number and a label
• Tap Block Number

👉 How to remove numbers from your Block List

• On your iPhone, go to the Block List tab
• Select the number you want to remove
• Tap Unblock

To edit the label, select Edit, enter the new label, and tap Save Changes.

👉 How to allow a number to bypass blocking by adding it to the Allow List

If you receive a call that’s marked as spam but you’d like to allow it, you can add the number to your Allow List in the app.

1. Open the TrapCall app
2. Tap on the Block List tab at the bottom
3. Tap Allow List on the right side
4. Tap Add and enter the phone number

This ensures that important numbers can always reach you, even if they’re on the Global Spam List.
