Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Xfinity Call Guard at 4.5 against DP 311's 2.6. Xfinity Call Guard also leads on ratings volume (799 vs 5) and update cadence (every 3 months vs every 6 months). DP 311's advantage is review sentiment (25% vs 15%) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Xfinity Call Guard holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 2.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Xfinity Call Guard has 799 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 25% of DP 311's written reviews are positive against 15% of Xfinity Call Guard's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
DP 311 ships an update every 6 months, Xfinity Call Guard every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 27, 2026 respectively.
