Here’s how you can hide caller ID on your iPhone and prevent your number from showing up to the person you are calling.
Learn to Hide Caller ID on iPhone and Protect Your Phone Number.
Whenever we receive a phone call, the first thing we do is check the person’s phone number. While that is something reassuring in a lot of cases, but the person calling you might not be comfortable revealing his or her phone number to you. If that’s the case with you too, then you might want to consider hiding your caller ID on your iPhone. So the next time you make a phone call to anyone, you will be pleased to learn that your number won’t be revealed at all. Keep one thing in mind though: this feature does not work on every cellphone carrier and some might even charge for such a thing. Therefore do not be surprised if the option is grayed out when you go ahead to enable it.
Hide Caller ID on iPhone.
1. Launch the Settings app from your home screen.
2. Scroll down and tap on Phone.
3. Select Show My Caller ID.
4. Turn the toggle switch off.
Once the feature is disabled, your number won’t show up whenever you call someone. But remember, this does not give you a free pass to do anything you want. Use this feature as responsibly as possible. The authorities will still be able to track you down if you’re planning to use this feature to pull off a prank on someone.
Keep in mind that hiding your caller ID feature is not just limited to the iPhone. Android phones support it as well. Heck, if you have a flip phone, that’ll work just fine, as long as you know where to find the feature in the first place.
