Keep your friends close and your enemies blocked.
Being primarily a messaging app, learning how to manage your contacts in WhatsApp is essential in order to get the best experience possible. The interesting thing with WhatsApp is how integrates directly with your iPhone's contact list — it means all your contacts are at your fingertips right away, no importing or searching for friends is needed. However, any editing you do to your contacts in WhatsApp will affect the contact outside of the app — and vice versa.

How to block a contact in WhatsApp for iPhone

Blocking on contact in WhatsApp is a good way of dealing with people who keep pestering you. We all like cute kitten pictures, but if your friend doesn't stop sending them and you think you just might snap maybe it's good to take a break from contacting that friend. There is two ways to block a contact on WhatsApp we will go through both of them.

How to block a contact from the contacts tab

1. Launch WhatsApp from your Home screen.
2. Tap on the Contacts tab. It's the middle tab which looks like a head-shaped icon at the bottom of your screen.
3. Scroll through your contacts and tap on the name of the person you would like to invite.
4. Tap on the Block This Contact button.
5. Tap on the Block button in the confirmation dialog.
Tap on the contact name, tap block this contact, and then tap on block.
This will stop the person from messaging or calling you in WhatsApp. It's important to note that this will not stop them from making regular calls or texts to you.
