Ratings and reviews

I have been being targeted by scams and bad actors for years. I hesitated to use the application because it had a few bugs at first. I finally had time today to set up the functionality and features available for the verification of my personal numbers and it's surely going to be able to control the excessive amount of calls that I typically receive. Jesus thank you.

Very useful; incredibly slow; times out constantly. Great feature set: identifies suspicious calls; gives caller details straight from the network; good reporting and options; choice of block and send to voicemail; overly paranoid auto filter option, as they all are. However. The app times out during launch, loading recent calls, lookups, and reporting. This kills its utility. I suspect the app's been abandoned. Plus, T-Mobile, as usual, never responds to feedback. They could not care less.

When activated this app attracts many more spam calls and text messages. Many calls are not identified but turn out to be spam. The caller ID is very disappointing maybe it's because many lines are through computers now I don't know just a little disappointed. I think there should be the choices clearly to tap on when you get a call not have to search like you're trying to find something in a Samsung phone
