Wondering if you can see someone's iPhone location?

This guide shows how to see someone's iPhone location in three simple and effective ways.

Did you know your iPhone has a hidden feature that lets you control actions by tapping the back of the phone?

With the iPhone Back Tap feature, you can take screenshots, open the camera, or trigger shortcuts instantly. Most users never discover this powerful setting.

Try this useful iPhone trick today and make your phone smarter.

Sometimes, hiding your number permanently isn't always convenient. For example, if someone has set their phone to block calls from private numbers, your call won’t go through. In this case, you need to show your number, just for that one call.

That’s where the *82 code comes in.

🤩How it works: If you’ve set up permanent caller ID blocking through your phone or carrier settings, dialing *82 before a phone number will unblock your caller ID just for that call. This means the person you're calling will be able to see your number. 👉🏻Example: Let’s say you want to call 123-456-7890. Simply dial: *82-123-456-7890

Your number will appear on the recipient’s caller ID as usual.

This trick is very useful when calling businesses, customer service lines, or individuals who reject anonymous calls. It saves you from going into settings and turning off your private number option, which can be a hassle if you want to keep your number hidden most of the time.

Sometimes, changing the caller ID settings directly on your phone doesn’t work. You might open your settings only to find the “Show My Caller ID” option greyed out or missing entirely. Don’t worry—this usually means your mobile carrier is managing these settings behind the scenes.

🤔Why does this happen? Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, Vodafone, and similar companies may also control caller ID settings at the network level. So even if your phone does support caller ID hiding, it may still be disabled if your plan or carrier doesn’t let you set it directly.

🤓What’s the solution? To fix this, you need to manage your preferences directly through your mobile service provider.

😉Check Your Carrier Account Online: Visit the carrier’s website or app. Unlike many phones, most of the carriers provide a space for “Call Settings” or “Features” to set voicemail, forwarding options, including blocking the Caller ID. Therefore, you need to find a way to disable your caller ID.

🧐Call Customer Support: If you can’t find the setting online, or it’s locked, you can then contact customer support. The representative will then enable or disable caller ID blocking on your line. This can be done in most cases quickly and makes sure that your preferences are being updated.

💡Tip: Depending on the carrier, this feature might incur a charge or be available only on a specific plan. Make changes only after asking about terms.
