The steps in this article were performed on an iPhone 7 Plus in iOS 10.3.3. Note that in order for an app to be able to block calls or provide caller ID, you must have already installed that app in the past. You can use the call blocking feature on your iPhone to block numbers or contacts, but you will need a third party app if you want to have someone else block calls automatically.

Note that your blocked contacts are shown on this menu as well.
