Pros

  • Keeps away spam calls and messages
  • Creates a list of spam numbers

Cons

  • Sometimes blocks wanted messages

Keep out the unwanted calls and text messages with this communications app.

Step up the security of your messages with this user-friendly app. It removes a lot of the spam that you tend to get with messages that you receive as well as the calls that you receive. The app tends to block out the information that you don't know about and that you don't need on your device so that there isn't a risk of viruses to invade. You'll get a notification when someone calls that you don't have listed in your contacts or that could be spam. If you know the person calling, then you can accept it, but if not, then you can decline to answer without the person knowing that you've seen who is trying to get through.

Once you see the number of the person who is calling, you can set that number to be ignored in the future as it's put on a spam list. This also prevents the caller from contacting you through SMS messages. The app takes the security of blocking calls a step farther as it will also prevent spam messages that are sent and emails so that you're not inundated with annoying news and promotions. This will help to keep the contact list to a minimum as well as the messages that you have saved or that you get during the day to a manageable amount. You can at any time remove a number from the spam list.
