Not sure why it just stopped working ### 4/5 — Good one *2026-07-24, version 1.4.0* Works great! Just wish the app would allow unlimited numbers to be blocked. ### 5/5 — Great blocking caller app *2026-07-22, version 1.4.0* This is a great app for blocking unwanted calls, one thing that would make even better would be an export import blocklist. It’s a clear ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ from me ! ### 5/5 — Like hitting a jackpot! *2026-07-20, version 1.4.0* This is free and it’s a Winner! I had the mistake of reaching out one of those auto discount ads, and next thing I knew, over 100 calls/day! This one tool saved my sanity! Now, I just see them drop, and not a single ring. Love it!! ### 5/5 — Brilliant App *2026-07-14, version 1.4.0* Just went on today to add a new range of numbers as I had started getting nuisance calls from similar mobile numbers and discovered that this app had already blocked over a MILLION nuisance calls!! ### 5/5 — Fantastic!! *2026-06-28, version 1.4.0* I have used this app for several years and am pleased. I want to always have this on my phone(s.) Thanks for the great app! I also like the fact it is not a personal data hound. ### 3/5 — Works, but iOS limits it *2026-06-23, version 1.4.0* Got this specifically to stop a flood of calls from 800/888/855/etc numbers. iOS limits how many numbers can be blocked, so it’s not possible to block even a single entire toll-free prefix like 888. Not the fault of this app. ### 1/5 — Not working *2026-06-20, version 1.4.0* I have tried to block range of numbers 0843 and 0845 , but it does not work . Blocking all 0845 numbers is too much for that app 🤷‍♂️. It’s only good for single numbers ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Does not allow enough blocking *2026-09-04, version 1.4.0* Tried to block all 800 numbers, about 56 million, and it would not work. ### 1/5 — Difficult *2026-09-04, version 1.4.0* Not that easy and straightforward to use ### 1/5 — Sucks *2026-08-26, version 1.4.0* Didn’t block a single unwanted call ### 1/5 — Instructions are sparce *2026-08-08, version 1.4.0* Could not get the app to turn on. ### 1/5 — Not enough blocks *2026-08-04, version 1.4.0* Can only block like 5 calls. I need like 60 million calls blocked ### 1/5 — Boo *2026-07-31, version 1.4.0* Did not block a call delete the app ### 1/5 — Unfortunately not functioning *2026-07-20, version 1.4.0* Blocked ranges, but still getting calls from the area codes blocked. Great idea obviously but the app looks abandoned. ### 1/5 — What a waste *2026-07-03, version 1.4.0* Failed to block any of the numbers I added. Don’t waste your time ### 1/5 — Does not work anymore *2026-06-27, version 1.4.0* Range of numbers block is broken, and I’ve been getting calls regardless. Had this installed for years and don’t know when it broke. ### 1/5 — Good enough idea if it actually worked like it’s supposed to work! *2026-06-23, version 1.4.0* I’d give it 4 or 5 stars if it actually blocked ALL the numbers within a complete area code range that’s been saved from (xxx) xxx-0000 to (xxx) xxx-9999! Still getting the same SPAM/SCAM voicemails, even from saved blocked numbers! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Simple,easy and effective *2026-08-31, version 1.4.0* Works without ads, great app ### 5/5 — Allows numbers multiple times *2026-08-24, version 1.4.0* I like the fact that this is free, but it allows the same phone numbers to be blocked multiple times! ### 5/5 — Simple CB *2026-08-24, version 1.4.0* I’m impressed and do grateful ☺️ I can’t stand these pcs. This is great 👍 ### 5/5 — Great App *2026-08-23, version 1.4.0* Just installed app yesterday - actually just found about app yesterday. Has worked like a charm for the very persistent and irritating robo calls from same exchange and area code. This was an ongoing problem - I think the robots knew when I had dinner and would descend like robognats! Thanks for great app. ### 5/5 — Wildly good *2026-08-21, version 1.4.0* To start, I’ve used paid call blockers, robo killer and hiya. Still had the same 10 or so spam calls. Installed this one based off a Reddit review and didn’t think much of it until the 5 calls I usually would have got by now didn’t appear. This is the first time in over two years I haven’t been bugged half a dozen times before noon. Love this app ### 5/5 — Really works! *2026-08-20, version 1.4.0* Simple to install and easy to set up! I set up multiple ranges and haven’t received spam calls that were coming in four to five times a day! Highly recommend this tool!!!! ### 5/5 — BEST APP EVER *2026-08-17, version 1.4.0* Thank You 1000x - whoever developed this software - You’re doing god’s work The ability to block 2,000,000 #s in a range , is nothing short of amazing - that lets people deny (not all due to iOS limitations) but MOST / 90+ % scam spam calls generated with duped area codes voip software - I no longer receive any scam spam texts between (redacted area code) xxx 300-0000 and xxx 499-9999 Download this NOW !!! It WORKS TEN 👍👍 ### 5/5 — Perfect!! *2026-08-12, version 1.4.0* Exactly what I was looking for. Thank you so much! ### 5/5 — Works wonders *2026-08-02, version 1.4.0* Great app! I use to use cloaked and this app is simpler to use. ### 5/5 — Spamarino *2026-07-26, version 1.4.0* Excellent software. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
