It deletes way more from sites than you want. But I still got spam calls and emails! So not worth it!
Dark web and racism
I use this, and was utterly appalled to see an ad on FB that was openly racist. It started with a voiceover of someone speaking flawless English with an accent from the India/Pakistan/Bangladesh Subcontinent. It featured a white mustachioed alpha male-looking tool who informed the accented caller that he was now using this product. The clearly AI-generated voice was portrayed as being afraid of this app. As the voice rose higher and higher and the male voice started saying please, this racist responded with a rapidly widening grin. He was taunting the voice that was programmed to express fear. It was performative cruelty. I felt sick.
People who work at data centers are humans. Blame our corporate overlords not the person working in hell for the intrusion. I’m canceling my subscription. Please do the same. There are other, more effective apps, to control security. Don’t support racists.
Furthermore, I know that my SSN is on the dark web. I have lots of identity theft insurance, but I keep trying things to fix the problem. This app is another failed experiment. Plus, I’m still getting lots of spam calls.

Won't renew at expiration
A lot of my missed calls for when I don't have service which is common because of my work. People call me and leave voicemails so I do see those notifications from the app but when I click on them they disappear and they don't even appear on my iphone dialer. I'm hoping the data removal of my personal information from third parties is helping and I like that they provide a virtual number but the call guard feature is very disappointing.

False Advertising
This app and service are a complete joke. I’m glad I received a promotional subscription and not a full price one. The AI spam filter which was supposed to “eliminate all spam calls overnight” made mine increase 10 fold because every time the AI assistant would answer a spam call, it would register my phone number as a number that a person answers with the auto dialer the scammers use. I went from having 10-15 spam calls a day to 90-100 at one point. The only thing that has very slowly reduced the number of spam calls is me deleting Cloaked and answering every spam call on mute and letting the auto dialer hang itself up after failing to register a person answering. Even then I still get 30-50 a day now all because Cloaked made the problem worse. Then they had the audacity to gaslight me after I deleted my subscription and tell me the reason I was still getting spam calls was because I deleted their app! Um, no, the reason I’m getting so many spam calls is because of the app.

Don't upgrade to family/annual
Works great as a monthly individual subscription. I tried to upgrade to an annual/family plan and they charged me but then everything quit working. After engaging the worst AI support chatbot I've ever encountered Inal no longer a happy customer. It hasn't done anything for a couple months. So a waste of money.
