As an iPhone user, it’s essential to know how to view and manage your call history effectively. Whether you want to delete individual calls or clear your entire call log, iOS 13 and later versions offer convenient features to help you maintain a well-organized call history. This article will guide you step-by-step on how to view and delete call records on your iPhone.
Please note that if you have enabled iCloud Drive, any changes made to your call history will be synced across all devices signed in with the same Apple ID and capable of receiving calls.
Step 1: Accessing the Phone App
Locate and open the Phone app on your iPhone. The Phone app icon features a green background with a white phone receiver symbol.
Step 2: View Call History
In the Phone app, tap on the “Recents” tab located at the bottom of the screen. This will display a list of your recent call activities, including incoming, outgoing, and missed calls.
Step 3: Filter Call History (Optional)
To view specific call types, you can use the filtering options. Tap on “All” at the top of the screen to see all calls, or select “Missed” to view only the calls you did not answer.
Step 4: Manage Call History
To delete calls from your call history, tap on the “Edit” button in the top-right corner of the screen. This will allow you to enter the editing mode for managing your call log.
Step 5: Deleting Individual Calls
To remove individual calls, locate the call entry you want to delete and tap on the red minus icon (Delete button) to the left of the call. Confirm the deletion, and the selected call will be removed from your history.
Step 6: Clearing Entire Call History
If you wish to clear your entire call history, tap on “Clear” in the top-left corner of the screen. Confirm your action if prompted. This action will remove all calls from the list.
Step 7: Saving Changes
After managing your call history, tap on “Done” in the top-right corner of the screen to exit the editing mode and save your changes.
Tip: Alternatively, you can delete individual calls by swiping left on the call entry and tapping on “Delete.”
In case you do not see the options to delete your call history, ensure that your iPhone is running iOS 13 or a later version. If not, consider updating your device to access the full range of features, including call history management.
By following these straightforward steps, you can efficiently manage your call history on your iPhone, keeping it tidy and organized according to your preferences.
