How to allow all calls from your contacts

Hiya Spam Blocker uses your phone's contact list to let calls from your saved contacts bypass filtering and call screening. Any number saved to your contacts can ring through to your phone.

Note: Hiya only uses your phone's contact list for this purpose. We do not use or share contact information for any other purpose.

Make sure contacts ring through (Android, in-app)

Open Hiya Spam Blocker → Settings → Call Settings and set "Calls from saved contacts" to Do nothing.

Allow contacts permission on Android

1. On your Android device, open Settings → Apps → Hiya → Permissions

2. Tap Contacts and select Allow

Allow contacts permission on iPhone

1. On your iPhone, open Settings → Apps → Hiya → Contacts

2. Tap Full Access

Note: Contacts access is required for Call Screener to work properly on iPhone.
