LoopCall — Your Calls, Your Rules Tired of scam calls, spam calls and robocalls interrupting your day? LoopCall is an AI call blocker and call screener for iPhone. It blocks known scam numbers before they ring and puts an AI screener between you and every other unknown caller, so you only pick up the calls that matter. HOW IT WORKS Known scam and spam numbers are blocked the moment they call, right on your iPhone, even with no signal. When you decline or miss any other call from an unknown number, your carrier forwards it to LoopCall. Known scammers get our AI, which keeps them talking and wastes their time instead of yours. Everyone else can leave you a message. LoopCall records it, transcribes it and checks it for scam patterns, then sends you a notification with who called and why, without you ever picking up the phone. BLOCK SCAM CALLS AND ROBOCALLS BEFORE THEY RING • A scam number list that updates every day, built from public complaint data and reports from the LoopCall community • Numbers you report are blocked on your iPhone right away • Numbers you mark as safe are never blocked • Optional: stop new robocalls from ringing at all with Silence Unknown Callers. LoopCall still screens them for you AI CALL SCREENING FOR EVERY UNKNOWN CALLER • Smart screening is automatic, with no modes to set up • Read a transcript of exactly what the caller said before you decide to call back • Callers who speak another language are transcribed too • Listen to the recording any time KNOW WHO CALLED AND WHY • Every call gets a clear risk level: Scam, High Risk, Caution or Looks Safe • See the real reason, like loan offers, fake IRS or tax calls, Medicare and health insurance scams, car warranty calls, fake bank or fraud alerts, delivery scams, prize scams and tech support scams • Political calls, campaign calls and polls are labeled so you know what they are • Spot spoofed numbers, telemarketers, phishing and social engineering attempts at a glance SCAM RADAR • See which phone scams are active right now and what's rising • Live totals of calls screened for all LoopCall users and for you • Simple tips to stay safe from each type of scam WHY PEOPLE CHOOSE LOOPCALL • Works with your carrier's built-in call forwarding: no extra hardware, no SIM swap and no new phone number • Protection you can trust: one test call confirms that blocking and screening really work on your phone • Every scam you report helps protect other LoopCall users • Your time, your rules: never waste another minute on a scammer, telemarketer or robocall GETTING STARTED Setup takes about a minute.

See every device on your WiFi. Free — no ads, no subscription. Network Scanner Toolkit finds everything on your network in seconds: name, IP, MAC address and manufacturer (iOS 27+) — even devices that hide from ping. Devices tell you what they are: Apple TV, HomePod, Chromecast, printers, HomeKit and Matter gear, Sonos, Fire TV, Windows PCs, NAS boxes and more. Capability tags show which are pingable, run a web interface, speak Bonjour, UPnP or Matter, or are your gateway. Filter by Web UI, SSH, file shares, printers, TVs, smart home or cameras. Tap a device to ping it, open its admin page, connect over SSH, VNC or SMB, rename or favorite it. New devices are flagged automatically. Made for big screens. On iPad and the iPhone Duo the scanner becomes three columns — past scans, device list and full details side by side — and the tools spread into two panes. Stand the Duo up like a laptop and every tool splits across the hinge: graph, map or results on top, controls below. Fold, unfold or rotate and nothing is lost. A full network toolbox — free: • LAN Scanner — fast sweep with naming over Bonjour, NetBIOS, WS-Discovery and SNMP; models and manufacturers, custom names & icons, new-device badges, filters, quick-connect. Scans Wi-Fi, Personal Hotspot or wired, and keeps going after you leave the app (iOS 26+). • Subnet Tools — IPv4 and IPv6. Type any address with a prefix, netmask or wildcard and get the whole answer on one card: network, broadcast, host range, counts, type with its RFC, binary with host bits highlighted.
