Dialward: Caller ID & Blocker

ZYRO APPS

About this app

Know who's calling — without handing your address book to a server.

Dialward identifies incoming calls from your own address book and your own spam list, then shows a clear card on screen before you answer. There is no account and no sign-up, and your contacts are never uploaded.

CALLER ID ON EVERY CALL
When the phone rings, a compact card shows the caller's name and number. Numbers you have marked as spam are flagged in red along with their category, so you know what you are picking up before you answer. Answer, reject, mute or switch to speaker straight from the card.

YOUR OWN SPAM LIST
Mark any number as spam — scam, marketing, or a label of your own — and Dialward flags it every time it calls. Remove it just as easily. You decide who gets through; no shared database decides for you.

BLOCK NUMBERS FOR GOOD
Keep a separate block list for numbers you never want to hear from again, and manage it any time from Settings.

A CALL LOG THAT MAKES SENSE
Every call grouped by day, with incoming, outgoing and missed filters. Tap any entry to see the full history for that number, call back, send a message, or report it as spam.

CONTACTS AND FAVOURITES
Search your whole address book as you type. Star the people you call most and reach them in one tap from the Favourites tab.

A DIALER THAT THINKS AHEAD
Matching contacts appear while you type the number, so you rarely have to finish dialling.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• Your contacts are never uploaded, shared or sold
• Your spam and block lists stay on your phone
• No account, no sign-up, no phone number verification
• No shared spam database — your list is yours alone
• The only data collected is anonymous crash and usage diagnostics, used to fix bugs

AVAILABLE IN 7 LANGUAGES
English, Spanish, French, German, Arabic, Hindi and Mandarin.

WHY DIALWARD NEEDS EACH PERMISSION
• Contacts — to show a caller's name instead of a bare number
• Call log — to build your recent calls list
• Phone state — to detect an incoming call and show the caller ID card
• Phone — to place calls from the dialer and answer from the card
• Display over other apps — to show the card while the phone is ringing
• Notifications — to show ongoing call information

Your contacts, call log and spam lists are read on your device and never transmitted.

Dialward is a caller ID and call blocker for people who want to know who is ringing without handing their address book to a server.
