This call blocking app is absolutely remarkable!!! It's gotta be the best app there is for blocking unwanted calls. I've tried numerous call blocking apps and none of them have worked nearly as good as this one has. Unwanted calls don't ring my phone, aren't transferred to my voicemail, or anything like that. If the caller isn't in my contacts list, the call is automatically blocked and there's no kind of interruption to what I might be doing at any given time on my phone.

Love it! I love it so much, I paid for the ad removal. One minor nit is I wish there was a way to configure the number of times a call is received before it is NOT blocked. I think it's hard coded to 2 but would like option to change it to bigger value. The answer and hangup option not only blocks calls but mostly blocks them from leaving voicemail too. Now if it only could block text messages! Hats off to the developer(s) of this app. Thank you for a great app.

This Call Blocker is literally the most stable and consistent app of this kind I've ever seen. The free tier offers everything one could need, and the call blocker actually works. My phone does not ring, but rather, all calls from unknown numbers are sent directly to voicemail. I've been using this for months and can say I've experienced no issues, no bugs and no hiccups of any kind. I happily recommend it 1000x over! 😄👍

Unfortunately I entered the realm of spam calls. I made it a long time but no longer. I searched a bunch of different options and this looked like the best. So far it has been a very good choice. It has blocked everything except my contacts. It hasn't been intrusive. The ads aren't bad. I think I had 1 full sized ad in like 4 weeks now. I don't need to be in the app much. Those that had trouble configuring probably didn't follow the suggested options. It's easy to update if you need.

update: had to uninstall like others. was unable to recieve phone calls because this newest update was blocking default phone app. just updated app and there was no change. if this gets fixed, I'd come back as the call blocking works well. So far it's working great. I can block all numbers with certain area codes. My phone has been silent for the most part. Good app

Used to be better/cleaner. I liked this app when I first installed it. It blocked my calls that weren't on my contact list. Pure and simple. And not too annoying. Now in later versions, when my contacts call me, there is some sort of on-screen floating options on the screen. Yes I can swipe them away, but that's annoying. Then after the call is done, it takes me to some sort of summary window about the call that I need to exit out of. Again, annoying.

Best call blocker app on the market today. Does exactly what it's supposed to do and then some! If you set it up with your white list and contacts only then it blocks any potential spam or unknown calls from even ringing through. It's amazing and I definitely recommend for anyone who is bombarded with spam calls. Also it doesn't wear the battery down even with it continually running in the background which is a huge plus for me!

Great so far! You know those scam calls you get that have the same 6 digits as yours? This app lets you block numbers that fit any pattern you want. When one of those calls come in all you get is a silent notification that a call was blocked. No interruption, no annoyance! (But you can set it to vibrate or make a sound when a call gets blocked if you want it to.) I sprung a few bucks for the ad free version because they did have some full screen ads, but I'm willing to pay for an app that works

Works perfect for completely eliminating unwanted spam calls. I have it set to only allow calls from people in my contacts. If any other numbers call they have to leave a message. I am able to determine which are legitimate calls by the message. Then I can add them to my contacts book if reasonable to do so. I get no spam or ads that I'm aware of from this app.

I went from 14 calls a day to none! Only quite notifications from the APP about the calls that were interceded and blocked. I do also appreciate that it will accept recordings in case its a doctors office or something that called and i can return it at my convenience and add to the "white list" for approval. Now I'm only down to text messages but it's not as pervasive and distracting and irritating as the phone calls.

Wasted way too much time on other call blockers.Fiorenza's V4.2.1 Call Blocker actually does what its supposed to do... block calls --- importantly, with wild carding that works -all- the time. Great app. I keep the app's 'shield' ICON on the notification bar (via settings) to be sure it's running in the background. Rarely, if ever, does the task die. If it does, other background tasks are dead too, so it's the phone's OS that should get the blame. My phone is currently running Android 8.1. Be sure to enable all permissions when installing.

Update 11-8-22: the newest update has made it completely unusable. The pop-up is not intuitive to answer calls. I had to uninstall the app to answer an emergency phone call from my contact list. I set it to block everything not in contacts, and it does that. I still get voicemail for blocked calls and calls appear as blocked in my log. This app has completely ended the constant interruptions due to spam.

This is by far the best call blocker I have found for an Android 10 phone -- better even than the numerous paid options. And you DO NOT have to set it as your default phone/dialer app. It allows you to block all incoming calls, save for numbers in your contacts and whitelists -- and allows you to set up wildcard filters for both your blacklist and, this is much rarer in blocking apps, your whitelist (i.e., getting a return call from an organization that has multiple lines sharing the same prefix). In addition, adding to both lists is made easier by being able directly to reference the call log (sadly, only incoming and blocked at the moment, not outgoing). Blocked calls do not ring, but will give you a notification in any form that you configure it. However, the blocked calls can still leave you voicemails -- but I'm not sure that can be changed unless the app is your default Phone app. Kudos also to the developer. He's extraordinarily responsive to suggestions. I've sent him a bunch and he's already implemented a number of them. I have confidence this app will continue to develop positively. You should try it, and definitely donate if you like it!

I used true caller for a few years but it got more intrusive with each update(wants to be your main phone and messaging apps, forces terrible caller id screens on you). I gave this app a shot and I'm glad I did! This doesn't force anything on you, you use whatever phone app you like, and there isn't any forced caller id screen. All you get is a notification when it blocks(if you want it to)which is all I want. The free version works perfect, but why not throw a couple bucks to the dev? Thanks!

Annoying "feature" that you can no longer turn off even when you disable it. The popup that displays after making a call will not stop popping up. It's been disabled for some time now and it's suddenly showing up again. I have reinstalled the app and turned off all of the popups yet they still display. Very annoying.

Some sort of update now forces you to see a half screen notification when a call ends, even if that option is set to OFF in the app. I found a good workaround for this. You can go to Settings > Apps > Call Block > Appear on top > and disable this. It still shows a notification but for only half a second. Great app other than that.

The send to voicemail option on unknown callers works well. The pickup and hangup option is hit and miss. In some instances the app picks up but doesn't hang up. There have been several times when I hear someone talking and it turns out to be a telemarketer where the app picked up but didn't hang up. I just have to wait for them to hang up because there is no "in-call" hangup window when that happens. Buggy setting. Also, turning off the after call pop up screen apparently means nothing.

This is the BEST!!!! I tried 3 prior Call Blocking Apps before I found this one. OMG! This App actually blocks all annoying calls. I have it setup to block any calls that are not in my contact, and I added a view numbers to the 'Whitelist', so that those calls will go through and do not end up being blocked. App shows you the phone # and or name that is associated with the number. At which time the caller is sent to your voicemail if you have one setup. I paid to have Ads removed.

Settings to turn off notifications after call completion set correctly, but app continues to show a notification when making outgoing calls with default phone. Recent update now has app running while using the default phone app. Only want it as a call blocker, not caller ID system. Used to work fine. Received response concerning the settings. All are correct. Still happening. Very annoying. This is a developer issue. Used to be the best call blocker app, but now I cannot recommend it.
