ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Spam Call Blocker holds the better App Store score, 3.9 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Spam Call Blocker has 575 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 19% of Spam Call Blocker's written reviews are positive against 50% of LyricLink's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
