Slow to load but I still use it

It’s slow to load, but I still use it for the VPN. Though, even that can be buggy

How does this keep getting worse

I have had this disabled for years and somehow it enabled itself again and everything on my phone has stopped working. Seriously just take the L Verizon. This is such a catastrophic failure of an app. No one who works for you or who this app has any idea how to fix the problems. You would think after years and years of people saying I don’t want this and it’s messing up my phone and experience you would try something different, but no just another troglodyte.

Hate!

I hate this app but apparently my Call Filter app is transitioning to this jumble mess of an app. The app locks up constantly. I have my own VPN and 100% am not using Verizons. I only used the call filter app to block spam and scammers. This app here doesn’t have a neighborhood filter feature. This app here is a mess of things I am not interested in. Ill just go back to AT&T for my 4 phones.

Sends Important Calls to voicemail

At least once a week, this app sends important calls that are obviously in my call history directly to voicemail without ringing the phone. The calls don’t even show up in recent. This happens once or twice every week. Today it sent a call from a mechanic who I’ve spoken with numerous times directly to voicemail. It has sent calls from doctor’s office where I’ve done business for years directly to voicemail. I finally had to turn the app off out of frustration because I keep missing important calls. The app should be able to look at call history and determine whether a call is valid or not.

App keeps crashing

I’m trying to get on the app and it keeps crashing. It keeps saying something went wrong please try again later or reopen the open. And nothing. I don’t know what’s going on. I really need this.
