So you should go to the Phone app --> Log --> number --> More --> Block/unblock number.

Just so.

If you mean "significant other" (do you? Haven't heard that term in decades), if you mean it then it is best to not treat it as a common word like "so". You have several options:

1) Type "significant other (so)" as the way to introduce it.

2) Type it all capital letters "SO".

Note: Attention to detail helps with phones and getting understood by readers.

As to SO, 'round these parts (Canada) the common term these days seems to be "partner".

Two great countries divided by a common language. Well, it is often regional.

Sofa / couch / chesterfield

Soda / pop / soft drink

Hmm, three "so" there (didn't plan it).

If they are trolls they will know it is a live line. If it is important, they will leave a message.
