Ratings and reviews

Used this app for quite a while, it's okay, but since it requires to be the default app, it can't pull up any contacts in contact search, and always warn you, that you may be charged if you use the dial pad to make a call, and the blocked numbers appear on the call log along with my regular calls, I can't tell which number is which. I end up using another app for dialing a number, or looking up a contact, and messages. There's too much wrong, unnecessary stuff on this app for efficient access.

Loved the app so much, I wanted to upgrade to the premium paid plan. I gave them my card number & at the end of the 7 day trial, they wanted a 2nd form of payment as back up. Sorry.. Ain't gonna happen. I'm probably going to drop the free app as well. That's just absurd. Not even my utilities company who takes hundred a month asks for a backup payment method.

Cheaper than other apps, but the interface is so annoying that it doesn't matter. You have to use the app as default for calls and texts, and they don't have hardly any features for those functions. I can't even get an actual ring tone so I don't miss calls... the app has to use notification sounds for the phone ringing, which is one beep and nothing more.
