How long would a "recent" tag appear next to a blocked contact that has been attempting to reach your number?

There's a number I blocked a while back that seems to have been attempting contact. I've been keeping an eye on the number to see if the "recent" tag disappears but it hasn't gone away yet. Does anyone know with what frequency the number would need to be attempting contact for the "recent" tag to be sustained? I've been watching it for about a week.

When you block a phone number or contact, they can still leave a voicemail, but you won't get a notification.


You'll see the 'Recents' tag beside this contact if they leave you voicemails. If you've blocked them, please ignore this notification and don't try to view their messages or calls.
