More About Call Filter

The Call Filter is a simple and effective app to block unwanted calls. The app is free, does not contain ads, and does not collect or transfer personal data and contacts.
The Call Filter automatically blocks the following types of incoming calls:

- Advertising and intrusive services over the phone;
- Calls from scammers;
- Calls from debt collectors;
- Intrusive offers from banks;
- Surveys;
- "Silent calls", instantly dropped calls;
- Calls from the numbers in your personal blacklist. Wildcards are supported (optional);
- All incoming calls from the numbers that are not in your contacts (optional);
- Any other unwanted calls.

The Call Filter does not require access to your contacts!

Unlike other blocker apps, Call Filter does not require access to your contacts. It is easy to use and stable in operation.

The blocked numbers database is updated several times a day. Your phone chooses the refresh rate automatically based on the state of your battery, Internet connection speed, and connection type (Wi-Fi, LTE, H+, 3G, or EDGE). The Call Filter is designed to update the blocked numbers database as often as possible, without draining your battery, wasting extra traffic or slowing down your Internet access when you use it.

does a pretty good job at stopping most unwanted and annoying scams and or telemarketers. does require a bit of manual feedback to be accurate

Over the top. At first didn't thought it would work but spam calls is definitely not a problem anymore

After having used this for a couple months I wanted to update my review. This app is better than 5 stars. Developer continues to add great blocking options. I do believe this is the best call filter app anywhere. Tried others but this one is a true masterpiece. Thanks!

I've not found it heplful. It doesn't seem to block much of anything. I'm still getting trash calls, and I'm still having to look up numbers. What it does do is intercept all my phone calls and sends everything straight to voice mail. Even my contacts, which it just had to have access to. It's not a good app.

Doesn't prevent getting calls, these fake phone numbers robo calls use won't call again so why block the number AFTER theyve already called.... I don't want to be bothered the first time so yeah this app is useless.....

I'm from a country where telemarketing is allowed and overflows the calls. This app option to only allow contacts to call us is an absolute lifesaver.

While at first this was a great app, lately more and more calls that should be blocked are passing the check for me, which renders the whole thing useless.

does the exact thing that I need for FREE. my phone has never been so incredibly silent. finally my phone only ever rings for contacts. all other calls go straight to voicemail. I've never been so happy. I plan on upgrading my membership as soon as I can afford to. this app impressed me, I want to support it. telling my family about it too. thank you so much for the peace and quiet!!!

I really like the idea of this app but I have not used it any length of time. once I have more experience with it five stars as it shows great promise for blocking calls I don't want to answer.

How exactly is this app supposed to work and what does it need the "display over other apps" permission for when all that it does for an incoming call is to show a "block this? yes/no" notification which you won't see until the call has ended because the screen is taken over by the dialer app?

So far, I am extremely happy with this app. It does exactly what I want: block all calls that are not in my contact list, but allow unknown and private calls (since these are often from medical providers). Oh, and free!

I used to have Do Not Disturb turned on daily because of my leaked phone number. I'd get 20+ calls a day that would fill up my voicemail with silence. Thanks to this app I don't even need it turned on. The block all calls except contacts feature has been a life saver.

This works. It actually blocks numbers that are not in my contact list. I get 5 to 10 spam calls per day. Samsung (I have an S22) and T-Mobile apps let most spam calls through... This actually stops them. My phone is now silent throughout the day unless a friend or colleague calls. Thank you for creating this app!

while Call Filter is free it doesn't do the best job of blocking unwanted calls. It looks like there is a learning period where it gathers info and then it starts to use it later. Quite a few calls have gotten through which has been annoying. Hopefully the program will run more efficiently as time goes on.

I thought I was getting a filter that would stop telemarketers, robo calls, scammers. Instead the calls come through then tell me action is required. Once clicking on that it gives you several choices as to what type of call it was, once you select that it then wants you to fill out details about the call. Then you decide to mark it blocked etc... Much easier to just hit block caller from what button came with my phone as it's much quicker and without the hassle of you doing all work. Useless!

Works great!- I use my Contacts list for ok'd calls allowed to ring thru- all others silenced, but allowed to leave a voice-mail if desired so I can call back if needed. Eliminates heaps of scam & annoyance calls ! ⚠️But must remember to add a biz # to Contacts at least temporarily if expecting a call-back from repairman etc & can delete later, but voice-mail backup if they use other biz phone than expected. You have option to permanently block a # or just leave as unknown no ring-thru.

The only thing lacking in this excellent call blocker app is the ability to "turn off protection indefinitely" if needed so I don't have to uninstall the app in order to achieve that. Right now you can only turn it off for a 48-hour period and then you have to turn it off again. With my need right now because of an auto accident and I am in recovery mode, I need to keep the app turned off for calls coming from unknown numbers from doctors and other things through the next month or so

Finally, a call blocker that really does block calls. Occasionally, something makes it through to voice mail, and that is not often. When I block a number, it is blocked. I don't get any notifications on my phone, my watch, or my car, which, for me, is a relief. Other call blockers would have a notification of a block call and put them to voice mail. The calls would always ring through my car and watch, regardless of whether they were blocked or not. Call Filter stops the call.

FINALLY!! Call filter really does filter any incoming calls that are not in my contact list!! I was previously using Verizon's call filter which was nearly useless It lets so many unsolicited phone calls through. I've deleted it since this Call Filter works so well. It's important to remember to add doctor's phone numbers, etc. to your contacts

Great little app that lets me block calls from certain numbers while not being invasive and asking for a dozen permissions. The other apps require email, phone dialer, contacts, texts, and location permissions; but this ONLY asks for spam call permission. It doesn't even need to connect to the Internet for every call, it filters based on cached lists. Literally the best for privacy, protection, and spam protection!
