Hidden features of your iPhone are accessible via secret codes; here are some very useful ones that will change your iPhone experience.
Some people don’t even know these codes exist. Imagine the look on your friends’ faces when you block calls on their iPhone with a few keystrokes.
These codes are USSDs that work with a large majority of phone carriers. However, they work on all iPhones.
You entrust your phone to a person and you want to be sure that he will not make calls with it, dial *33* followed by your PIN and # and validate. This will block the call function.
You can unblock calls by dialing #33* your PIN code.

You are calling someone with your iPhone and you don’t want them to see your name or number, follow the steps below to hide your number:
1. Type #31#.
2. Type in the number you want to call, adding the area code and initiate the call.
It’s a good idea to test it out with a friend or family member’s phone to make sure it works properly.
If for some reason you can’t take calls on your iPhone, you can forward them to another number on a landline or mobile.
If you just want to divert calls in a vacuum, dial *61*. If you want to forward calls to another number, dial *67*. Then enter the number to which you want to forward the calls and press #. Finally, press the call button to confirm the call forwarding service.
After that, all your calls will be diverted, even if your phone is on. To deactivate the service, type #62# or #67#.
You can type the code *#61# or *#67# to know if the service is active or not.
You are on the phone and someone is trying to reach you on the same number; to configure the possibility to put this person on hold, dial *43# and validate. On the confirmation screen that appears, press Ignore. To stop the service, press #43#.
Let’s finish with a classic. The IMEI code is a number unique to each device manufactured in the world. So it becomes very useful when you need to locate a stolen iPhone all over the world.
It is also used to unlock your iPhone in order to use it with another operator.
To get the iIMEI of your iPhone, type the code *#06# and even without pressing the call button, the IMEI will be displayed.
Both iPhones and Android phones have many codes that work with some operators and not with others. Don’t hesitate to test them, you will find treasures.
