Blocking Contacts from Viewing Your Status

You can prevent someone from monitoring you by blocking the contact in your Contact Directory. If you
unblock the contact, the contact can add you to their Buddy list and monitor you.
User Tip: How to Access Your Blocked and Watcher Lists
To view a list of contacts that can and can't monitor your status, do the following:
 To display contacts that can view your status, tap Settings from Home view, and tap
Features > Presence > Watcher List.
 To display contacts that can't view your status, tap Settings from Home view, and tap
Features > Presence > Blocked List.
To block or unblock a contact from viewing your status:
1 From your Contact Directory, tap the contact you want to block or unblock.
2 From the contact's information screen, tap
From the Edit Contact screen, tap Block Buddy, and enable or disable the field. The default setting
is Disabled. When enabled, the contact can't watch your status, and the contact will display in
your Blocked List. When disabled, the contact can watch your status, and the contact will display
in your Watcher List.
3 Tap Save.
Timesaver: How to Quickly Unblock a Contact
You can use your Blocked List to unblock a contact, rather than updating the Contact Directory:
Tap Settings from Home view, and tap Features > Presence > Blocked List. From the Blocked List,
tap the contact you want to unblock, and tap Unblock. The contact can now watch your phone,
and will display in your Watcher List.

Monitoring Buddies

You can monitor your buddies from your Buddy Status list. If a buddy is a favorite, you can also monitor
the buddy from Home and Lines view.
