## Review summary

Most reviews report poor spam-blocking effectiveness, heavy and opaque pricing, and notable privacy concerns. Many accuse bait-and-switch and hidden in-app purchases, with trials or free plans largely gone. Users also note reliability problems, ads, and upselling interruptions. Overall sentiment is negative, suggesting the app often costs more than it delivers.

### Pros

- Core idea of caller ID and spam filtering exists.
- Visually appealing appearance noted by at least one reviewer.
- Some users felt that core features could work alongside traditional carrier protections.

### Cons

- Ineffective spam blocking: spam calls persist despite premium status and settings.
- High and unclear pricing with reports of removal of a free plan and bait-and-switch accusations (premium fees around $79/year).
- Significant privacy concerns: requests extensive data access and tracking, raising questions about data handling.
- Reliability issues: misidentification of calls, crashes, ads, and upsell prompts interrupting usage.
- Allegations of deceptive in-app purchases and unclear download pricing; refund requests mentioned.
