User Reviews

Users initially find 'Call Guard' helpful for blocking spam calls and appreciate its blacklist feature. However, frequent crashes, login difficulties, and ads for subscription fees negatively impact the experience. The app's block list is limited with poor notifications when full, frustrating users needing manual management. Overall, while useful for spam call blocking, stability and billing issues reduce its reliability.

Pros

Can be useful for blocking junk spam calls initially
Some users find it very useful and effective
App includes a blacklist feature to block numbers

Cons

App crashes frequently and is unstable
Block list has a limited size with no clear notification when full
Requires subscription fee or billing that users find hidden or unexpected
Login issues such as inability to type login or no skip login option
Some users report app froze while managing blacklist

BAD! If the block list in the app is full and new junk call numbers cannot be added, there will be no notification displayed in the app, only a message stating "system busy". Customers will only find out that the list is full by calling Customer Service, and customer will have to manually delete previously blocked numbers. Has this app stopped any updates, and therefore has no solution for improvement? It seems to be a value-added service that forces customers to add. 差!
