The most common USSD code to disable private number (unhide your caller ID) is #31#. Dialing this code will deactivate the private number feature for outgoing calls, allowing your phone number to be displayed normally to recipients[1][3][5]. If your phone number has been hidden using a USSD code like *31#, you can reverse it by dialing #31# to disable hiding your caller ID[1]. You should open your phone’s dialer and simply enter #31#, then press the call button. You should receive a confirmation that the feature is disabled[3][7].
Alternatively, some carriers also let you check the status of caller ID hiding by dialing *#31#[6]. If your private number status does not change after using these codes, it may be a carrier-level restriction—in such a case, contact your mobile service provider for assistance[1][5].
Additionally, you can manage caller ID visibility through your phone’s settings:
- On Android: Go to Phone App > Settings > Supplementary services or Calls > Show your caller ID and select “Always”[2].
- On iPhone: Go to Settings > Phone > Show My Caller ID and turn it on[2][4].
