Had as a free service for years, and overall worked pretty well for identifying spam calls. I noticed about 5 months ago a lot of spam calls getting through as well as caller ID no longer working. Then they moved to a pay subscription and, given the drop-in functionality, I deleted it. It was a […]

Used to be a good app, but several months ago, they changed to a premium service options. I get it, charge users for caller ID. A bummer for a feature that was free for years, but the app still worked. Every update since then has removed more and more features for unpaid users. Then the […]

I love this application! It was recommended several years earlier by PC World magazine. I am so glad I found it! I have recommended it to anybody and everybody that has ever mentioned needing to block phone calls. Edit 6/24/19: This app is no longer free. I am saddened. Thank you for the time you […]

The initial version allowed blocking by pick up and hang up, now it goes to voicemail, so they keep calling every day. It looks like the updates work worse than the old version. Not to mention it says it is free, when actually it is not. The caller ID is not free even with the […]

This app was ok when I first started using. Over time it allows blocked spam to come through like a normal phone call. I have been using for a while and now there is a sudden change to a charge. Since there was no notification and the app doesn’t work I will be uninstalling. This […]

I’ve had this app for years and used to absolutely love it and recommend it to all my friends. Gradually over time it has declined to the point that I’m going to replace it. In the beginning, it identified most incoming calls. Now it IDs those in your contact list and asks you to pay […]

I don’t like the new updates. Seems like it’s making the app worse. I liked it better when it first came out. I can’t block numbers that are not already saved in my phone. That function was taken away now I have to block each number that calls as they call. I don’t like that. […]

Work great when it was free. What I didn’t like was the way they went about requiring a subscription fee now. No notice. Snuck it through on a update. I found out when it quit working and investigated why. If they would have notified me in advance they were going to require a subscription fee […]

UPDATE:no longer shows me a text message log. Took down two stars for that. —– No more spam and telemarketers, and no one who’s not in my contact list can bother me. It was free the first week I used it then it became a paid app, but at about a dollar a month it’s […]

I have had this app for months and it worked. It has now been uninstalled from my phone. When a developer is more interested in money, puts up a subscription wall without even telling all the customers so we could at least get our blocked numbers off, then it is time to move on. If […]

Uninstalled it today. It’s a pity because it was a great app. I had recommended it to many people. It was working great then I was suddenly presented with the paywall to continue using it. I definitely would have made a one time purchase for an ad free version but there’s no way I’m going […]

Was great for the years I used it (I got it back before it split from Whitepages) and only ever needed the options included in the free version. I was disappointed to open the app today to find a paywall for all functionality without warning. I’d much rather give my money to an app that […]

This was a great free app I used for YEARS. They added a paid feature where now some free features are part of a paid $2.99 monthly service. That went on for about a year or so, but features I didn’t need. Now after update, 100% of app is $2.99 month after 7 day trial. […]

I would give this 4 stars if they hadnt changed the setup! It was great for caller ID and identifying potential spam. Not the greatest for blocking bc your phone still rings a few times for blocked numbers. Not at all happy that they’re now wanting a subscription. I don’t mind paying for it, but […]

money for less… years ago had more blocking features and search options. now, more calls get through than ever, no searchand you want me to pay? nah. installing. I’d rather pay for an app that does what it says. I only kept it this long because when I change phones I install apps from the […]

Giving it 1 star bc it changed to a paid app w/o warning. I downloaded this app a couple years ago as a free app & loved it. It blocked unwanted numbers effectively. Sometime within the last year they changed their model so that you had to subscribe to get caller ID or info on […]

I was using this when it had full features for free. Then slowly things started changing and names were not included in the notification, but if I wanted to pay for it could. Received a notification that your service is no longer free. Thanks for that, you know, since I’ve been using your app for […]

This app use to be great. It would block unwanted calls or text. I loved it. It cut down on robot calls tremendously. However it seems like it is letting these blocked calls get thru to voice mail rather than simply hanging up on them. It’s happening more and more. Just had 5 such calls […]

Been using this app for years mainly as a phonebook kind of thing. I could put a phone number in the app, and it would give me a business, or person name associated with the number. Recently, I can no longer use the app at all without allowing the overlay on incoming calls, which I […]

I’ve used this app for 13 years. It was like $5 a year, but now they tried to pull out $80 a year. I had to cancel and block payment immediately. I really liked the app and never worried about spam. It’s very disappointing and very wrong to raise the price from $5 to $8, […]
