Contacts not showing in Hiya Spam Blocker

Fix contacts not appearing in Spam Blocker by granting the correct permissions on Android or iPhone

If your contacts aren't appearing in Hiya Spam Blocker, the app likely doesn't have permission to access them.

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

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

Still not showing?

Try restarting your phone after granting permission. If contacts still don't appear, uninstall and reinstall Hiya Spam Blocker — this resets all permissions and prompts you to grant them again.
