Canonical page: [https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.notthere](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.notthere) ## Overview - **ID:** `com.notthere` - **Platform:** Android - **Type:** Android app - **Status:** Available - **Publisher:** NotThereApp - **Category:** TOOLS - **Downloads:** 18 - **Version:** 1.0.13 - **Last updated:** 2026-08-21 - **First published:** 2026-08-11 - **Publisher country:** DE - **Size:** 9.15 MB - **Data as of:** 2026-09-09 - **Store listing:** [Google Play Store](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.notthere) - **Website:** [https://notthere.app](https://notthere.app/) - **Privacy policy:** [https://notthere.app/privacy-de.html](https://notthere.app/privacy-de.html) ## Description NotThereApp automatically screens incoming calls based on your availability and personal contact rules. Depending on your settings, calls can be silenced or blocked, and callers can automatically receive an SMS informing them that you are temporarily unavailable.

Automatic call screening and automatic SMS replies work together to help you stay unavailable without manually managing every incoming call.

Whether you are in a meeting, driving, working, resting, praying, on vacation, or simply do not want to be disturbed, NotThereApp helps you manage incoming calls automatically while keeping callers informed of your temporary unavailability.

Main features

• Automatically screen incoming calls based on your availability

• Silence or block calls according to your settings

• Automatically send SMS replies to callers when enabled

• Configure automatic SMS replies globally or individually for selected contacts

• Create your own automatic SMS reply message

• Schedule unavailable periods using flexible time-based rules

• Receive reminder notifications so you do not forget to make contacts reachable again

• Manage unavailable contacts securely on your device

Privacy

All call screening, contact management and SMS processing are performed locally on your device. NotThereApp does not sell your personal data, does not use your data for advertising, and does not upload your contacts, call information or SMS content to external servers.

Permissions

Call Screening permission is required to automatically screen, silence or block incoming calls according to your rules.

SMS permission is requested only if you enable automatic SMS replies. Automatic SMS replies are an integral part of NotThereApp’s unavailable mode and allow callers to be informed that you are temporarily unavailable. SMS auto-replies are disabled by default and require your explicit consent before any SMS is sent. ## Rankings - #2,623,265 — Overall ## Permissions and access ### Permissions - `android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE` - `android.permission.ACCESS_NOTIFICATION_POLICY` - `android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE` - `android.permission.INTERNET` - `android.permission.POST_NOTIFICATIONS` - `android.permission.READ_APP_BADGE` - `android.permission.READ_CONTACTS` - `android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE` - `android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED` - `android.permission.REQUEST_IGNORE_BATTERY_OPTIMIZATIONS` - `android.permission.SCHEDULE_EXACT_ALARM` - `android.permission.SEND_SMS` - `android.permission.WAKE_LOCK` - `com.anddoes.launcher.permission.UPDATE_COUNT` - `com.android.launcher.permission.UPDATE_SHORTCUT` - `com.android.vending.BILLING` - `com.android.vending.CHECK_LICENSE` - `com.google.android.c2dm.permission.RECEIVE` - `com.google.android.providers.gsf.permission.READ_GSERVICES` - `com.htc.launcher.permission.READ_SETTINGS` - `com.htc.launcher.permission.UPDATE_SHORTCUT` - `com.huawei.android.launcher.permission.CHANGE_BADGE` - `com.huawei.android.launcher.permission.READ_SETTINGS` - `com.huawei.android.launcher.permission.WRITE_SETTINGS` - `com.majeur.launcher.permission.UPDATE_BADGE` - `com.notthere.DYNAMIC_RECEIVER_NOT_EXPORTED_PERMISSION` - `com.oppo.launcher.permission.READ_SETTINGS` - `com.oppo.launcher.permission.WRITE_SETTINGS` - `com.sec.android.provider.badge.permission.READ` - `com.sec.android.provider.badge.permission.WRITE` - `com.sonyericsson.home.permission.BROADCAST_BADGE` - `com.sonymobile.home.permission.PROVIDER_INSERT_BADGE` - `me.everything.badger.permission.BADGE_COUNT_READ` - `me.everything.badger.permission.BADGE_COUNT_WRITE` ## Similar extensions and apps - [Call Manager](https://chrome-stats.com/d/app.callmanager) — 118 users - [SMS Auto Reply & Away Messages](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.lemi.smsautoreplytextmessagefree) — 610,825 users, 3.84 / 5 - [AfterCall](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.aftercall.app) — 14 users - [Auto Reply By Online Neta](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.vaibhav.autoreply) — 1,366 users - [Atomatic](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.parishod.atomatic) — 367 users - [Call Switch: Call Auto Reply](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.undefinedbehaviourgames.callswitch) — 6 users - [SMS Auto reply--When driving](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.zhaocw.woreplyen) — 64,822 users, 2.43 / 5 - [Auto TextBack -Missed call SMS](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.mesensei.missedreply) — 1,786 users - [Auto Reply Messanger](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.smartcodies.autoreplymessenger) — 1,055 users - [AppSecretary: Auto Reply Texts](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.dantekia.appsecretary) — 4,013 users, 3.11 / 5 - [MissedCall - SMS Auto reply](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.ericfreeman.appCallMiss) — 38 users - [Call Rejecter](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.mobilecallrejecter.app) — 81 users --- Source: [Chrome-Stats](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.notthere)
