Timesaver: How to Quickly Unblock a Contact
You can use your Blocked List to unblock a contact, rather than updating the Contact Directory. Select Settings from Home view, and select Features > Presence > Blocked List. From the Blocked List, select the contact you want to unblock, and press Unblock. The contact can now watch your phone, and will display in your Watcher List.
