### 5/5 — 造福人群

*2025-12-15, version 3.9.7*

From 10 calls a day to 1 or 2 calls a week. Simply lovely

### 3/5 — Block Junk Calls

*2025-05-22, version 3.9.7*

Phone still rings when junk calls from blacklist

### 1/5 — Very misleading to have two subscriptions mode

*2025-05-09, version 3.9.7*

I already submitted to the auto update plan while it also remove ad for me, however, there is another subscription plan to remove ad misleading me to click, that mean I pay for noting added!

### 5/5 — app boasts a clean and intuitive interface.

*2025-04-06, version 3.9.7*

This is a reliable app for anyone looking to enhance their calling experience.  If you're seeking a robust caller ID solution, JIMA is worth considering.

### 5/5 — It Works

*2025-03-25, version 3.9.7*

Can screen most of the junk calls, cold call, esp.  mainland estate sales!! 
You can see who is calling and which call to answer.

### 3/5 — Confusing!

*2025-02-28*

I am sure if I had a better understanding of how to correctly use this app, I would probably find it helpful, but it makes little to no sense to me.

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2025-01-26, version 3.9.7*

no any comment other than perfect.

### 3/5 — After latest IOS ipdate, calls cant be blocked

*2024-12-05, version 3.9.7*

As titled, the calls show instead direct blockage

### 3/5 — The app cannot block calls

*2024-12-04, version 3.9.7*

The app cannot block calls now; it only shows who is calling, but the call still goes through, which is very annoying! If it cannot block calls, the app is useless. Please follow up

### 5/5 — Just subscribed.

*2024-11-07, version 3.9.7*

I’ve been using this application for a few years, I don’t mind there’s advertisement, because it works. There are lots of scams and fake calling that annoying my family and I. I currently start subscribe for eight dollars a month, hoping that would be able to support this application.
