It does not Block anything
This is 2026. All my blocked spam shows blocked in 11/25. Im sick of the spam calls. Fix your app!
No more hassles
I was getting 30 or more spam calls a day, and it drove me crazy. The Call Filter has stopped 99+% of spam calls. I love it.
Call Filter
I love not having to worry about getting calls from people who I don’t know who they are.. it’s great
Very limited help
My iPhone through its phone app provides MUCH better help addressing spam calls and VOIP calls. The ONLY this app does well is the neighborhood block. But that’s limited. I had 5 spam calls today alone. This app failed to block ANY of them.

Extremely disappointed
I originally used Verizon Call Filter to help cut down on spam calls, but once I started looking for new employment, I turned the filter OFF because I needed to receive calls from unknown numbers.
Unfortunately, the app continued blocking legitimate calls even after I disabled the filter. As a result, I had several potential employers move forward with other candidates after days of trying to play phone tag…….because their calls were being blocked without my knowledge.
I even went as far as re-enabling the filter and specifically selecting the option to allow certain numbers, yet those calls were still blocked.
This is incredibly frustrating and, in my case, had a very real impact on my employment opportunities. A call-filtering service should never continue blocking calls after the user has disabled it, and there should be a reliable way to ensure legitimate numbers can get through.
I would strongly encourage Verizon to address this issue. When someone is waiting on an important call, missing it because of a filter they already turned off can have serious consequences.

Doesn’t Work
I have selected the highest screening level and I still get tons of spam voice messages. It just doesn’t work for me.
Broken
The app isn’t working. Insists I download protect. Won’t function properly. I will remove and find a new app.
Others are better
It’s silences the calls but it allows voicemails to go through. I have it set to “don’t allow” but it doesn’t work. Robokiller is ALOT better but it’s expensive
Pretty decent
It does not detect every call.
Unwanted
Please cancel
Great spam blocker
I previously got so many spam calls and messages that I’m now getting far less and can see who is calling in I want to receive or send to spam!
paid for shortcomings, blocks family, allows spam
this app supposed to protect your phone from external spam and scams. It only does 50% of the work, I get tons of text Spam that this app does nothing to address
Also discovered you can only permit 10 exceptions, the false positives are nearly 100%, the block calls are nearly 100% friends and family, nearly everything that lets through is spam, this thing is whacked

Get This
This is a great way to keep your peace!
Only calls it blocks for me are extremely important calls from my doctors.
I have never once had this app block actual spam. 100% of the calls it blocks are extremely important calls from my doctors, appointment schedulers, and pharmacists. Since I have multiple doctors and the hospital I go to is a learning hospital, I cannot predict every number that will call from these teams of people. It is untenable to have a contact for each of these, sometimes one off calls and the numbers they originate from. Also, I have notifications setup for this app so that it notifies me when it blocks calls. However, it rarely does so. I have outright missed seriously important phone calls because of this stupid app. The only indication I get reliably that this all has silenced and blocked important calls is when providers choose to leave a voicemail. I have been screwed out of getting important appointments dates like offers for earlier appointments for more urgent needs. I would highly, highly recommend to avoid this app if you are in a similar situation. I would rate this app zero if I could.

Jajajajaja
Useless
I’ve been getting bombarded by spam calls and this filter I pay $5 a week for sucks hasn’t blocked almost any of them.
Scams
Thank you but one slipped by on my house phone all good!
Blocks doctor and family calls
This app blocks EVERY call from every single one of my doctors’ offices and calls from my pharmacy too!! It also blocks calls from my grandparents’ landline and my sister’s cell and my dog’s vet! I don’t understand why it blocks calls from saved contacts and calls clearly identified as “Healthcare.” I have reported all of these numbers as “Not Spam” repeatedly, to no avail, they still get blocked, and every one of them is saved in my contacts as well.

Worthless Junk
I have filtering plus which I pay 3.99 a month for. I have it set at the most aggressive setting. Yet more calls slip through then are blocked. In fact, today there were 10 calls that slipped through and left messages. Whats worse is Verizon Call Filter insights shows I received zero spam calls for the day. Worthless. What am I paying for ?!
Update 9/9/26:
After I write this reviews the Verizon Call Filter product team emailed me to “help”. They gave general trouble shooting responses. After they determined my settings were correct they have left me for dead. I have emailed them screen shots of every call I have received. 53 emailed in 2 weeks Verizon call filter has filtered ZERO percent of spam calls so far 9 days in to September. I have received over 35 spam calls in 9 days. ZERO have been filtered. No responses from the product team. But they are gladly taking $3.99 a month from me. I will be escalating to their corporate office and filing FTC and BBB complaints.
