When Google told me neither the pixel interface nor Project Fi had a way to block private calls I was suddenly inundated with after switching to there service, I was pretty disappointed -- this should be a basic capability on the phone's UI. Regardless, that drove me to find a call blocking solution for these unlisted numbers calling me multiple times a day. This one only blocks unlisted/private/unknown numbers, so if a spammer calls on a listed number, you still have to block on your phone or via your provider. But I like that it is free, doesn't seem to interfere with my phone or contacts, and is very straightforward. Overall pleased.

No adds, no frills, just 3 options. And it works (UK) blocking 'private' or 'with held' numbers. Excellent app, go get it

I keep getting calls from a restricted number for over a week now several times a day. Downloaded this app based on a review. The restricted calls still come through so I am deleting & will try a different app. ????

I think that this app proved to do what it said. I tried other private caller rejection app and this one is paramount.????

The app blocked 6 calls within about 4 hours! Only one call got through to me, but it was listed as '0', not restricted. I have been getting 10 to 15 restricted calls every day. This app appears to solve the problem on my Galaxy S7.

Every time someone calls me private or unknown they seem to get through everytime, I don't understand it.

This app really works! Please do not change anything. Called myself from another line using *67 and "Hide My Number" and it blocked it. No ring at all. I've been getting "Unknown" and "Private" calls from Telemarketing harassing me at least once a day for the past few weeks. NEXUS 6P

PERFECT!!! worked well, had "private number" calling me for 2 months, EE could do nothing nor Ofcom. This app. blocked there call n sent it straight to answer msg... The caller must have got fed up, had no more calls...

I've recently been receiving random calls from a "restricted" number (sometimes in the middle of the night!)but I didn't want to pay 5 bucks to Verizon to block these anonymous calls. This app works perfectly.

This is great and easy to use. I simply installed the app and that was it. I had been bombarded with restricted calls up to ten times a day... sometimes more. The app started working right away, with no need to configure it. All the annoying restricted calls are now being blocked. And it's free. Verizon wants 5.00 a month for Family Base to do what this app does for free.

Was working great. Now when a blocked call comes through it will drop the call I am currently on. Super frustrating! Please fix

G70%
by G####:

Great for blocking. The thing that worried me the most when I first got it was what if someone that had something really important or emergency and needed to reach out to me and can't. The option of llowing a third call through if called within 30 minutes is genius. There were actual situations where it was an emergency on where someone calls me on blocked and I think that is the greatest feature of this app besides the main feature of this app. Besides, my house phone always calls on a private lol. idk why

So far, so good, but since I don't see anything in the call log after 2 days, it may just be that no private calls have come in recently. It definitely lets real calls through, and if it works as promised it's exactly what I want - simple and effective!

I tested it by *67 calling myself from another line and it blocked it quite well. No ring at all. I've been getting "Unknown" and "Private" number calls at least once a day for the past few weeks. Peace and quiet, at last!

To shorten the longest story, this app saved me from my yrs of mental abuse frm a mad husband who harass me from private number. I can't believe I am so stupid to have taken so long to discover this. Thank you to the person who invented this app.

This App has two major bugs 1. It blocks all Unknown numbers even when the Owner needs others to come through 2. Becoz am using Grand Duos-2 (Two simcards). It allows a rejected call on Sim 2 when it was rejected on the other Sim 1.

I just tested it out, and it does exactly what it says. I'm sick of people playing on the Dam phone , with blocked numbers. ha ha!! Can't do it Anymore..

Just tested on the S6 and works for me.. gr8 work.. no more nuisance calls.. private callers are aloud to leave messages so thats good just incase of emergencies.. i can use this along with 2 other apps. So even better.

App suxs .after the 3 call still let private calls come in and I took the app off n installed it again n did not block private calls at all.don't waist ur time with this app

N70%
by N####:

And does it well. Not bloated with a gazillion unwanted and unnecessary features either. No irrelevant, annoying ads as well which is a massive bonus.

by S####:

Great simple app, does exactly what it claims. I'd give it 5 stars if it allowed slightly more customization. For example, there is a feature named Allow Third Retry where a private number will be permitted if tries to call three times within 30 minutes. It would be great if the user could set the retry count and time values. E.g Allow a Second Retry within an Hour.
