Extreme Call Blocker for Android
App doesn't hangup anymore and lets spammers leave voicemail (like all of the other blocker apps due to Android change with no workaround). FCC spam list is nice if it's working. Phone side apps can't stop voicemail anymore, so you need a network side solution as well. I'm trying out YouMail (3rd party visual voicemail + call blocking + more) plus YouMail's WhoAreYou? app and like the looks of it so far.
The "no voice mail" on this app is not working. Calls are going straight to voice mail instead of killing the call. Only reason I paid for this app was because the person I was blocking couldn't leave a voice mail message. It worked fine not to long ago, what happened?
excellent app!...it works! I tried a lot of other call blockers but none of them could do the hang up function, or prevent voicemail from being left, but this one can. you don't even have to know if the offending or undesired call came through.Im very happy with this app!
I've had this app for a while now. At first it worked great...but the longer I've had it the worse it performs. Not only are they able to call through, but the spammers leave voicemails, page me, and everything in between. Horrible.
Best call blocking app ever and it DOES work!! The pick up/hang up feature ONLY works on Android Kitkat 4.4.2 or below--this is an Android issue and is true for ANY call blocking app! NEGATIVE REVIEWS ARE BECAUSE FOLKS DON'T READ DIRECTIONS that are within app (top of each page)! Yes you can customize the block list!! I've tried many including one that costs $20 and this one DOES work. For android ABOVE kitkat, blocked calls do go to VM and this is true for ANY blocking app. Quit blaming the developer for Android issues or for not understanding the app. I am a user and not affiliated with this app.
Used to work great but now it has started blocking my contacts that are on the white list. Used to be able to email the developer and he would respond immediately still waiting from 2 weeks ago. Guess I will have to find another app or buy a new phone that has a built-in call blocker.
Some blocked calls are going to voicemail even though that number is blacklisted to hangup with no VM.
I purchased your "Extreme Call Blocker" app because it claimed to be able block blacklisted calls using hangup with no VM. All my blacklisted numbers with this feature enabled are going to VM. After going to your website, I discovered that you have listed compatibility issues with ZTE phones. There was NO mention of incompatibility in your Google Playstore listing for your APP. My phone is a ZTE Quest running Android 4.4.4. I am hoping there is a solution to not being able to hangup with no VM. I have no conflicting software or features enabled that would conflict with your Extreme Call Blocking" app per your website FAQs. I am willing to work with you and will change my review and rating. *** Updated 2017-06-24: No response from developer after two e-mails. Avoid this product and developer like the plague, unless you want to throw your money away.
I've been so happy since trying and then purchasing this app quite a while ago. Great support and guarantee of satisfaction. This developer's skill, dedication & sense of service are top notch, in my opinion.
I bought this app and was happy until recently when it says I'm locked out of the app. Emailed dev twice and still have no answers.
Not real thrilled with this thing so far... still getting SPAM calls... doesn't seem to have made ANY difference at ALL.
Last updated almost a year ago. FCC sync hasn't worked since August 2016. Not what I was hoping for when I bought it.
Blocks call answering for all calls
!! Too Complicated Setup Features !!
I LOVE this app. Great support, always evolving for the better. Top notch!
Don't waste your money.
Cannot receive group texts when using text blocking.
This app DOES NOT work for me. If the blocked caller can still leave me a voice message, then this app is BS. I have purchased this app based on a promise that the blocked caller will never be able to get to my voice mail box and leave me a message but it did not work and they can still leave me a message. I am not using any other app and my phone blocking feature is disabled so what's the heck is going on? I have sent a request to the support email and no response yet!!! I do NOT recommend it
It worked great until my phone got a system update. Extreme Call blocker stopped working. I uninstalled it then re-installed from Play Store. It installs fine, but it does not work anymore. It lets all calls in and does not allow me to send text messages with pictures. The only way to contact their support is by email and they do not respond. I figured that since I paid for this app I would get better support. That is not the case.
I really wanted to rate this at least 3 stars because it does block calls BUT they are still able to leave a message. I turned off all other call feature that's defaulted on my phone. I added the number and chose for it not to go to voicemail BUT it did all day long...regardless of a long tedious effort to follow all instructions. I would love my $4.99 back OR a SIMPLER way to make it work.
Firstly, cheers to the Dev on this app! I starting with this dev's free app "Call Blocker", which was great! This Dev responded to my inquiries immediately (next day) & gave me a serious treat! If you need a call blocking app this newest version Extreme Call Blocker is so well worth it. Try the non premium Call Blocker to get a taste. Really great apps & very reliable dev support. I'd like to give this app 6 stars! (Never have I said this of any app before) Thank you J! Ian
For months I've been using a different call blocker. My phone often rang before the block, my own calls got dropped, and lately the robocalls were leaving 4 or 5 voicemails for every blocked call. This app stopped everything. With the FCC blocked numbers option on, I immediately stopped seeing any evidence of the growing storm of robocalls. 10-12 calls a day for months to not a single disturbance feels like a miracle!! Highly recommended.
Works for me. Installed on my SGS5. Read the instructions and/or the manual or contact tech support before you start critique. (My hat's off to John Smith) for his quick response time. I'm loving the app. Haven't got any harassment, robocalls or telemarketing calls since I installed this ap. Silence is golden. Every smartphone should have this app. No ads either. Google play says app has ads. That is not correct. Ad free. So far 100+ percent satisfied. Well worth the purchase.
I had this app on my old phone for months and it has been a lifesaver! I just got a new phone yesterday and reinstalled it on the new phone. That's when I had some minor issues, which I emailed about, and were very quickly resolved. And honestly, the issues were pretty much just operator error as there were a few updates so it looked a little different on my new phone than my old one, Lol. I LOVE this app! It makes me feel at ease after dealing with excessive spam calls AND texts. Highly recommended. :)
I love this call blocker. No unwanted calls at all gets through it period! and great tech support. Thank you keep up the good work.
I have gotten over thirty telemarketing numbers in my blacklist some of these people had called 5-7 times no more thanks to this app. 9/25/16, blacklist has increased to 90 separate numbers. Thanks to this app I'm not bothered by them.
This app has been good for blocking calls and messages, but to block messages you have to use its messaging app which seems to have trouble retrieving multimedia messages or group messages.
Very good app. Would only request the app to also sync with known Canadian scam, spam, and telemarketer numbers. Would also request the ability of sharing of these unwanted numbers and callers within the app with other ECB users.
I have used this app for years now. Worth taking a little time to get used to the menus and settings. Can totally block or send calls to voicemail. Using on Huawei Y550.
I dont understand why the service is not working properly especially after ive updated an gave u my money. PROBLEM, PROBLEM. PROBLEM NOW FIX IT
Worth every penny and I got one free for my second phone. Little complicated at first READ THE INSTRUCTIONS! Great App
I've had this app for about a week and not one call or text blocked. Application is not easy to use!!! Please refund my payment.
Some blocked calls are going to voicemail even though that number is blacklisted to hangup with no VM.
All works, best bit is retaliating to pesky sms's by option of bombarding them with multiple texts with your own tailored reply!
Blocks all non disclosed #'s and no more crap calls. 1 call and ECB kills them all.
You paying for the app and the ad's are none stop
This app is great. It is easy to set up and works flawlessly for me.
Don't waste your money.
Purchased and loved it from the beginning! 4+ yrs and still going strong

Brilliant app and worth every penny. Just by enabling "Sync to FCC List" I've decreased the spam robocalls by about 85% This app is saving my sanity. Props to Grey Thinker. Wish I had gotten it sooner!
