2) Set up the function so that the redirection is triggered when your number is “unavailable” or “busy”.
3) In the settings of this function, enter the phone number of another smartphone (your friend or relative, who is usually with you).
4) Now, when an incoming call from the "hidden" drop the call without picking up the phone

### 1/5 — NumBuster does not work in Germany

*2026-04-24*

This app was once very good. I just signed up for the app’s one-year plan. And I just found out that it’s not working in Germany. Why isn’t it working?

**Developer response:** Hello. 

We are currently unable to support any use of phone numbers in the country/region you specified. 
This is a purely technical issue on our end, so even creating new accounts in our system using these phone numbers is also impossible, as we do not service this country or region. 

That's all we know.

### 2/5 — Não funciona na Alemanha

*2026-04-23*

Estou há um mês na Alemanha, sempre usei esse app pra pesquisar o números dos meus clientes e as informações apareciam. essa semana já não aparecem mais as informações mesmo eu pagando o pacote do app

**Developer response:** Hello. 

We are currently unable to support any use of phone numbers in the country/region you specified.

### 1/5 — In Germany Not works

*2026-04-21*

In Germany It’s Not possible more to use

**Developer response:** Hello. Thats correct - we do not serve german telephone numbers at this moment.

### 1/5 — 🚨‼️‼️‼️‼️

*2026-04-20*

You need to remove this app update that only works in Russia, because I and thousands of girls in Germany, for example, are subscribers to the app, and we can't use it. I tried to update for Russia, but it didn't accept any type of credit card to do so, and now I'm here with the app not working. You need to fix this as soon as possible.

**Developer response:** Hello. We never did any updates specifically for any country, thats technically impossible. This app doesnt distribute in russian or german AppStore either. There are no technical possibilities for us to serve telephone numbers in Germany at the moment which means that you cant use this app for telephone numbers from Germany or even register an account using German telephone number.
Thats all we know.
