Great app 5/5
By Jodhigrl
I appreciate the stopped calls.
Dumb programmer 1/5
By SnottyBoy
Really irritating to see that programmers don’t test their creations on real iPhones. Just plain dumb! Verification keyboard covers “Verify” bottom. Can’t collapse keyboard, so cannot verify.
Keeps asking for a review 1/5
By 8bitreid
Please stop asking for a review... 1 star
Developers! 5/5
By Bigg dude
I've been reading the reviews, do I update to include security on my iPhone?
Right now this app alone is doing an awesome job, after reading the negative reviews I'm questioning whether to let it go or not, don't want to lose WiFi or use data unnecessarily.
VPN's don't have a good history not just yours but everyone I read about.
Can you contact me thru email or however it's easier to let me know your opinion?
Much appreciation in advance.
App isn’t working for me 1/5
By Skydivetexas
I’m till getting all these calls every day since I installed this app. I don’t want these calls no matter what state they come from
Should be free 1/5
By Madoc111
Charges 4$ a month to block most types of spam or telemarketing call. Should be a free service. Shame on you at&t!!!!
Great effort but needs FirstNet access. 1/5
By OriginalGumshoe
Title says it all. I love the effort to block unwanted calls and to allow users to manage calls to their number. As other users have said, I think more automation and AI are needed to stop spam/bot calling, which feels like such a major intrusion or violation of my personal time and life.
This service needs to be connected to FirstNet as soon as possible!!!
Five stars for effort once FirstNet connection has been established.
Garbage offering from AT&T 1/5
By DarthRoosta
Another garbage app from att. This app is just like all the other bundled bloatware AT&T installs on android phones,.... useless, ineffective, inept, space wasting. There are other apps on the market that do the job WAY better. After installing, I can’t say I saw any reduction in the number of spam calls.
No difference 1/5
I have been getting multiple unsolicited calls a day from foreign and U.S. numbers. I installed the app 2 weeks ago and to date it has blocked zero calls while I have received dozens of unsolicited calls. I am deleting the app

great service
No comment 1/5

Almost useless but not quite 2/5
By TheGuyInTheMirror
Known fraud calls and manually blocked calls do get blocked at the network level. The problem is these scammers and telemarketers are spoofing caller ID and using legitimate numbers.
This app and the service itself needs to allow users to set up a whitelist of callers like their Uverse phone service. Even Call Protect Plus doesn’t have that feature. The Plus Custom Call Control only adds the option to block private, telemarketers, surveys, political, nonprofit, and Spam risk calls. There’s nothing custom about it allowing you to set up your own blocking rules.
AT&T needs to verify callers at the network level to truly beat telemarketers but there’s a monetary incentive to let their users get harassed.
Stop all fraud and block them plz 5/5

Stop all fraud calls and block them plz
Not working 1/5
By 77019Hou
I had three robocall telemarketer calls today that this did not block.
What is this app supposed to do ? 1/5
By bijouxtoo
I still get spam calls and have to manually block them.
Skip it 1/5
By jon truelove
Setup was slick and promising. But the app wouldn’t let me add any numbers at all to block, let alone a range (which is arguably the most important feature of apps like this). So the app simply doesn’t do anything. Waste.
Horrible 1/5
By ndbluguy
I get 6-8 robo calls per day with this app. Doesn’t block anything.
Let to many calls throug 1/5
By swordpoint
Shofar has not stopped but one call Let’s to many others through.
4 stars 3/5
By derod52
Not blocking done new telemarking calls that call 6 or. 7 times a day
What a joke! 1/5
By sgjitv
This app doesn’t even allow me to block the callers it’s kinda a joke
Hiya is feeling a little pushy today. 3/5
By Sustenator
I wrote this review because in my first days using the app, it prompted me to review it every time I wanted to use any of its functions (not just when I opened it). For that, you get three stars! Ease up, Hiya!
Still approx 10 robo calls/day 1/5
By 2cats1girl
I really don’t think this works at all. It hasn’t cut down on the number of robo calls/spammers a bit. I open the app and report numbers each time but there’s never any relief. Save the space on your phone and pay for an app that actually works.
OK 3/5
By Tom_Tak
Update: it worked great the first 3 or 4 months. Maybe one call every 3 weeks would get through. But since about September, slowly but surely, more and more calls are getting through. I’m now getting as many a 3/day sometimes, with at least one every week day. I don’t know what is happening. The only reason I don’t cancel outright is that I suspect I would get even more calls everyday. Whatever was working last spring when I first signed up is no longer working.
I’ve been using this for about 3 months now and I’m happy with it. It took several weeks for it to “kick in” but has since been really good about screening and blocking calls. I guess I get 1 spam/fraud call every 2 weeks or so now, whereas before I was getting as many as 3 or 4 a day. It works pretty well in my experience.
Terrible login / auth process 1/5
By edward forrester
One star because its a loop to login when you click request pin then type in the pin it says invalid. Suggestion stop asking for the pin the app should be able yo verify the device. Fix your code att.
Still getting bad calls 3/5
By Akadnr
Not sure if this app is depending on user submits, but I am still getting many unwanted calls , including calls in Chinese
Useless app 1/5
By Bump101
My previous review said it does nothing but I’m updating because now it does something. It blocks important calls including numbers in my phone book. Will most likely delete the app.
Unlisted 3/5
By Hollyscarlo
Does not block unlisted numbers
What’s the point? 2/5
By Bobhuma1982
I guess I’m not sure I understand the point. It doesn’t block calls that are suspected spam or scams. It just lets you know the the caller is such. These days, a number you don’t recognize is usually ignored anyway, so how about you block the call all together?
Cool 5/5
By The Raft Guide
Works great! I turned off notifications and I love this app!!!
Calls are on the rise, so the funnel for thieves is closing quickly! Thank God!!!
Still get a lot of calls 4/5
By call blockerz
I don’t know how much this helps. I still get a lot of calls.
Call protect 3/5
By deb32375
Disappointed often does not load . Initially worked great
Like the idea and concept 3/5
I like the concept of what the app does. It seems like though that the same calls are coming in on many different numbers now. How long does it take for my report to get to other folks who are getting the same calls? Can we just push telemarketers off a cliff?
Worthless 1/5
By Sgt Pete
Downloaded and set up. Never blocked or flagged a single call when I am getting two a day, over a 2 month period. Most worthless app I have ever had!
No way to downgrade from Plus 3/5
By Morac
Upgrading to Plus indicates that if you cancel the iTunes subscription it will revert back to Basic, but it doesn’t.
Not even the AT&T support reps could do that without breaking the App registration process.
As such on the positive side you can get Plus for free, but on the negative side there’s no way to get rid of it if you don’t like the features (like enhanced caller ID).
Not blocking 2/5
By Am88sono
Got 15 scam calls today... it flagged one. When it starts blocking the crud I’ll give it a 5.
How can I stop the calls? 1/5
By Sulogus
This worked for one day. Now I’m receiving calls again.
I’m going to cancel all my dealings with at&t if you can’t stop these calls.
Doesn’t work 1/5
By wtalaski
I’ve had 3 calls back to back which should’ve been blocked
It kinda works 1/5
By Arkanjil
But the kicker is that if you want more complete coverage, you have to pay an additional monthly fee- for protection, from security issues that are inherent in the very system that they literally invented.
Blah blah blah 2/5
By RDInWV
The free version. Calls still come thru. After you answer or determine it spam, you have to manually add it to this as call block. That does no good because the spam callers change the number they are calling from called Spoofing, to a totally new number and continue to call. ATT is operating bait and switch, ie. Bait and we’ll charge you if you really want this to work. FCC should clamp down and force them to provide it and not charge extra for it.
Update didn’t fix sign in 1/5
By Steven Baxley
Update was released today supposedly fixing the sign-in problems. However, I am still having the same sign-in problems as before. This app was great WHEN it worked.
Don’t waste your time 1/5
By DezNuts are crazy
This does not work. One out of 15 calls was flagged. This is pointless. Don’t waste your time
Virtually worthless 1/5
By o8fuscated
All the calls still come through and have to be manually blocked. A decent app should respond to known telemarketers and shut them down before they ever ring. And AT&T does nothing for the bulk of the calls using spoofed #s
Call Protect Plus a waste 1/5
By Sir Sly
I subscribed to the Plus option under the impression that it would block Unknown or Private numbers. NOPE! They still come through!!
FirstNet Support 1/5
By JakeCP12
Really need FirstNet support!!!
Please Block Flagged Spammers 5/5
By aa319110
Please Block Flagged Spammers
Worked well - - then just stopped 2/5
By Disappointed CPA
One used the app for well over a year. It worked great! Then, just today, it stopped working. Attempts to receive a new activation PIN via SMS fail (I never receive a PIN). All attempts at getting support end with frustration! Companies hiding behind their technology really aggravate me. C’mon! You guys are the premier telecom company in the world. Is anybody listening?
Extra charges 1/5
By Laser158689
The useful blocking is an extra monthly fee.
App still broken 1/5
By HolmenV
Can’t enter the pin and access the Verify button as keyboard won’t disappear.
Blocked numbers still get through 2/5
By erttdguiursdghj
Not sure what’s the point of blocking numbers if they still get through!!!
