Top reviews

My single greatest App Store purchase.

For years I’ve fought with AT&T and spam callers from one area code. This solved it. Just today it blocked over 30 spam calls.

App doesn’t work, Customer Support won’t respond

App keeps crashing, won’t load numbers. The FAQ page refuses to load. I contacted customer support, but they don’t reply back. Looks like I got ripped off, nothing else I can do except leave a 1-star review.

Great app

It works

Amazing

This app lets me do what Verizon refuses to: block specific area codes that i get 10+ spam calls a day from. Verizon wants me to pay an additionally monthly fee to block just 10 "neighborhood codes"(the first 6 digits).

Number shield just let me 6 area codes i get all my spam from. Number shied let me block 6+ million numbers for a one time payment of 2.99! Verizon wanted me to pay 3.99 A MONTH to block just 10 neighborhood codes(6 digits) thus only 100,000 numbers. Number shield is doing what verizon refuses to. This service should be provided by verizon for FREE but i had to find a third party app to handle this. Thank you for this great, fairly one-time-prices app. 10/10 amazing

WOW. Spam has dropped a lot

So this may sound bad, but I have only had 23 spam calls for the first 20 days of May, but that is down from over 60 a month. I usually get 2-3 a day from similar exchanges. Now I block them and my spam calls are a third of what they used to be.

International spam has completely stopped. Great program.

UPDATE: I have been using this app for years. I don’t get nearly as many spam calls as I used to. However, my spam text messages have skyrocketed. When there is a pattern, I have started blocking the exchanges for spam texts and those are dropping. The only problem is that spammers are constantly changing numbers.

I’m still happy with the results.

Great app!

So nice to block the political ads!

Not working

Got this app specifically to block 843 numbers, it says they’re blocked, but I keep receiving them. I think the issue might be down to +44 whilst call is coming in rather than being 0843 , and app won’t let add +44, so it’s useless unless fixed.

Blocks calls not voice mails

Feels useless as what I want is an app that stops robo calls from clogging my voice mail. This stops the ring, but send to voice mail. Waste of money.

Scam - waste of money

This doesn’t work. I’ve blanket blocked calls from numbers starting with the same 5 digits. Call has just come through - what a waste of money - would like a refund please

Not perfect by any means

Works reasonably well but there are still calls coming through. Seems to be the only blocker that gives you the option of using a wildcard option but as I mentioned, calls are still managing to get through. I would say nuisance calls have been reduced but about 50%.

Infelizmente não funcionou

Aqui no DF infelizmente não funciona

Does not work!

Would have loved this to help but just like other ones it does not. I still constantly get calls everyday from numbers inside the range of numbers I block. It didn’t block anything at all. I don’t know what the other people are talking about because nothing has changed and I have many ranges of numbers input in the block section. Don’t waste your money.

Disappointing

App consistently crashes when uploading bulk spam numbers. I’m assuming this is because they limit the quantity of numbers you can block. Very disappointing and a waste of money.

Doesn’t block on all devices

If a number is blocked on your iPhone, you also have to set it up on your connected iPad, etc. otherwise it just rings on your iPad…

Doesn’t work

Rubbish. Doesn’t work as advertised. Waste of money.

Does not block

This app does not block calls. It just sends them to voicemail which you can do simply by setting your phone to send an identified caller to voicemail. It’s not helping at all.

Stops what it wants to

I constantly find numbers getting through that I have blocked in a larger string of numbers, that should include it and block it !

App crashes constantly

It’s impossible to block mass numbers (like all 844 numbers) because the app just crashes 25% of the way into blocking numbers. Complete waste of money.

Makes life better!!

Does not work

Was really hopeful about blocking 0843 numbers (which I receive multiple times a day) unfortunately this app did not stop those calls
