        I have no answer yet to your question.
        But part of my daily job is to connect people so...

        I think it might interest @lduboeuf as I think he is also interested in this topic and might have some useful information for you.

        Edit: Sorry wrong tag earlier

          The ability to have a user defined sound for when a number is being blocked would be amazing!

                  @domubpkm Yeah, I know about f-call 🙂 But this feature should be integrated into the OS though, so that's what I'm going to do. SailfishOS's ofono fork will help a lot.

                      @yoni Not yet, I had some higher priority stuff so for now I've just been reading though the relevant code.

                            @domubpkm Can you stop spamming this thread with ads for this app? I understand mentioning it once, but now it looks like advertising.

                              @klh It isn't this at all !! But if it makes you feel better, I deleted all my comments!

                                Glad to see this thread on call blocking! I have a number just endlessly hammering me, so number blocking would be great. But if I had to choose a SINGLE blocking mechanism, it would be to filter out calls/texts unless they're in my phone book. There's so much spam out there, and it's far too easy for them to change their calling number.

                                        I greatly support you in this implementation.

                                        I would like to see a whitelist which allows numbers in Contacts to call & text with notification/sound, and all other numbers to be sent to voicemail, and silenced when texting.

                                        Thank you!

                                          @keneda I've been deep in ofono recently so let's say the force is guiding me pretty well 😄

                                          No ETAs as usual, but things are slowly falling into place.

                                            Amazing if this can come true!

                                            I would also like to be able to let some calls go through when on silent mode. Just like alarm still notifies even on silent mode. Maybe favourites in Contacts.

                                            When I'm away from home working, I would like to be able to activate silent mode in the night and still let my wife and doughter to be able to reach me in case of an emergency. You can do that on Android for example.

                                            Will this be built in the OS or an app? If not an app, how can we contribute with money when it's finished?

                                            Thank's for your effort on this very important function!

                                              @dizzy Silent mode / dnd was split into a separate topic (can't find it now though, not sure what happened - if nobody beats me to it I'll probably work on that one too). This one is about blocking specific numbers from being able to call/message you 😜

                                              I want this to be a part of the OS, not an app. As for donations, you can always donate to UBports: https://ubports.com/donate
