How to block someone on Google Hangouts on mobile
There are small differences in this process, depending on whether you have an Android or an iPhone:
- Open the Hangouts application.
- If you are using an Android, open a call by pressing the plus sign in the lower right-hand corner of the screen for a new call or by selecting a call on the main screen; if you are using an iPhone, press the Conversations tab at the bottom of the screen, then open a call.
- Press the three points, then select People.
- Select the person you want to block, then press Block (or Block users if you have an iPhone).
- Tap on “Block” again to confirm your decision.
Once the person is blocked, they will no longer appear in your contact list and will no longer be able to see you on their list or chat with you. If you have Google Plus, they will be removed from your circle and will not be able to see or comment on your messages. However, you can still see your public activity on Google.
