Blocking Contacts on Apple Watch

Hi-

I can’t figure out how to block contacts on my Apple Watch. It has a different number than my phone. All the old responses don’t work for me.

It’s not that the watch isn’t working properly. It works fine. It has a different number than my phone and therefore a blocked person on my phone is still getting through on my watch. How would I block them also on the watch

The first (and simplest) thing to try if something isn’t working right is to restart your Apple Watch and its paired iPhone. If necessary (device not responding), try a forced restart. Both methods can be found here:

If that doesn't help, the next steps would be to unpair and pair your watch again and restore from the backup just created. This should result in no loss of data. It deletes all temp and corrupted files and re-indexes the file system.
