    Handy guide I found when you wish to hide you iPhone mobile number, Perhaps you’re calling a company and you don’t want them to have a log of your number or maybe you’re using a personal phone for a work-related call and fear the person you’re calling may use your number to call out-of-hours.

    How to hide your number on iPhone using the keypad

    This method will entail you entering someone’s number manually rather than go via your list of contacts.

    1. Open the Phone app keypad
    2. Enter *67 on the keypad or 141 (both should work for UK)

    Now dial *67 (including the asterisk) and enter the number that you wish to dial. Tap the green phone button to connect. Your number or contact details will not be displayed to the person receiving your call

    Doesn’t #31# and number work on iPhones too, since it was possible on ISDN from the beginning and still supported on android?

    Yes, I believe #31# will also work to hide your number while calling someone

    Another option to hide your number on iPhone is via Settings which will allow you to hide your number permanently, affecting all the calls you make.

    • Go to Settings > Phone
    • Select Show My Caller ID
    • Toggle off Show my Caller ID
