CallDam vs CallCentersBlock

CallDam is built for mass call blocking by phone-number prefix. Instead of blocking one unwanted number at a time, CallDam lets you create prefix rules that can protect thousands of related numbers at once. The app is designed for large blocking lists, with support for up to 1.8 million active protected numbers. A key feature is direct blocking from the iPhone share flow. When you see an unwanted number or contact, share it to CallDam and create a prefix blocking rule without manually opening the app and rebuilding the rule step by step. Main features: • Block unwanted calls by phone-number prefix • Protect large ranges of related numbers • Support for up to 1.8 million active protected numbers • Add exact-number exceptions for numbers you still want to allow • Pause, resume, edit, or delete rules • Batch-edit multiple rules before applying changes • Add rules directly from the iPhone share sheet • Import and export local JSON backups • Apply your active block list through iOS Call Blocking & Identification Private by design: • No account required • No ads • No subscriptions • No in-app purchases • No tracking • No contact access required • No blocked-number uploads • Your blocking rules stay on your device CallDam prepares your active blocking list locally and applies it through Apple’s iOS Call Blocking & Identification system. Supported prefix-blocking countries and regions: Russia / Kazakhstan (+7), USA / Canada (+1), Armenia (+374), Belarus (+375), Ukraine (+380), Tajikistan (+992), Azerbaijan (+994), Georgia (+995), Kyrgyzstan (+996), Uzbekistan (+998), France (+33), Spain (+34), Poland (+48), Denmark (+45), Norway (+47), Netherlands (+31), Switzerland (+41), India (+91), Iran (+98), Australia (+61), Singapore (+65), Turkey (+90), South Africa (+27), UAE (+971), Saudi Arabia (+966), and Egypt (+20). Important: To block calls, you must enable CallDam manually in iOS Settings: Settings > Apps > Phone > Call Blocking & Identification. CallDam does not collect, upload, sell, or share your blocked numbers.

Call Centers Block stops the calls you keep getting from the same number ranges. You enter a prefix, for example 0584177, and iOS blocks every incoming call whose number starts with it. WHAT DECIDES WHAT GETS BLOCKED Only you. The app ships with no list of numbers and downloads none. The only blocking criteria are the prefixes you type in yourself, for the ranges that have actually been calling you. You can edit or delete any of them at any time. TWO MODES FOR EVERY PREFIX Block: matching calls never ring. Nothing interrupts you. Identify: matching calls still ring, but the call screen shows which prefix matched, so you decide whether to answer. HOW IT WORKS iOS never lets an app inspect a call while it is ringing. So the app expands each prefix on your iPhone into all the numbers it covers and hands that list to iOS through Apple's Call Directory system. From then on iOS filters the calls by itself, even when the app is closed. A seven digit prefix covers 11,111 numbers, and the app shows you exactly how many numbers a prefix covers before you add it. PRIVACY Nothing is collected, transmitted or shared. There is no account, no analytics, no advertising and no network connection at all. Your prefixes never leave your iPhone. The app never sees who is calling you, because iOS does the matching. WORTH KNOWING - iOS never blocks numbers saved in your Contacts, whatever prefix you add. - On recent versions of iOS, a number you have called yourself is not blocked until you delete that outgoing call from Recents. - WhatsApp, FaceTime and similar app calls do not go through the system call filter, so they are not affected. - A blocked call may still be listed in Recents as Blocked. It never rings. - A Diagnostics section shows when iOS last loaded your list and how many numbers it contains, so you can confirm it is working. Works with any country code. Numbers typed without a leading + are treated as numbers from the country you pick in Settings.
