About this app

Your phone is your door to the world, and you shouldn't open it for just anyone. With Call Filter, you can screen incoming calls, auto-block spam and report any unwanted numbers. Or, upgrade to Call Filter Plus with Caller ID for added security. Put a name to the unknown numbers, make your own personal block list, and even assess the risk level of incoming calls. Enroll today and start answering with confidence.



Key Features:

• Get real-time alerts on your incoming call screen so you can better avoid spam calls

• Automatically send spam callers to voicemail with the spam filter

• Report a number as spam so you can help improve our algorithm

• Block calls from phone numbers similar to your own or from a specific NPA-NXX
• See each spam call’s level of risk so that you can learn more about the caller

• Manage other unwanted calls with a personal block list

• Block all incoming calls from international numbers

• Search our spam database to see if a number has already been identified as spam

• Identify unknown numbers by name on the incoming call screen, call log and eligible messaging apps, even if the caller is not saved to your contacts

• Seamlessly update your contacts with newly identified numbers



Eligible customers get a 15-day trial of Call Filter Plus. Customers can choose to enroll in Call Filter to get the basics (spam detection, blocking and reporting) for free, or subscribe to Call Filter Plus for all that and more for $3.99 per month, per line. Accounts with 3 or more eligible lines can subscribe to Call Filter Plus (Multi-line) for $10.99/month by logging in to My Verizon. If you choose to enroll in Call Filter or Call Filter Plus, the spam filter will be automatically set to block high-risk spam callers, but you can change your block settings at any time. Data charges apply.

Update: The app no longer works. I get a device not supported message even though I'm still using the same phone as before. I canceled the subscription because it's no longer blocking any calls at all. Original: This app is well worth the money. It has significantly decreased the spam calls I get. Instead of 5-10 maybe 1 or 2 slip by

App is utter garbage. Why they limit you to only 10 area codes is beyond me. That doesn't even cover half of a state. I'm getting blasted by 20+ calls a day and there's nothing I can do about it because they won't allow me to have an entire state blocked. Better yet just give me an option to block all phone calls except for contacts. As of right now this app doesn't help me at all I'm constantly being woken up throughout the day.

8/30/2024 UPDATE: Followed up as suggested in the reply. Was quickly informed that my phone is NOT compatible because it is unlocked, which I had suggested initially. ----- The app isn't compatible with a Galaxy s24 ultra? Seems hard to believe but that's the message I get. Maybe this being an unlocked device has something to do with it. It shouldn't but strikes me as odd that the latest and greatest phone from Samsung isn't supported by Verizon
