## Description

Verizon Call Filter screens calls and automatically blocks spam based on risk. It alerts you to suspected spam, lets you report numbers, and applies customizable filters to block robocalls. You can adjust settings anytime to balance convenience and protection.

Optional Call Filter Plus adds extra controls like Caller ID and neighborhood blocking. A 15-day trial is available, followed by a monthly subscription. Requires a Verizon plan and may incur data charges.

## Review summary

Verizon Call Filter is praised for strong spam blocking and effective call screening when it works, but users repeatedly cite reliability problems, strict block/whitelist limits, false positives harming legitimate calls, stability bugs, and price concerns with premium features.

### Pros

- Strong spam blocking when the service is functioning, often dramatically reducing robocalls
- Call screening on iPhone effectively filters unknown numbers and spam texts
- Offers a largely hands‑off blocking experience for many users once configured
- Can provide noticeable relief from daily disruptions caused by spam calls
- Some users find the feature worthwhile and see clear benefits when it works

### Cons

- Blocking performance is inconsistent and several reviews report it stops blocking after a while
- Free and basic plans impose tight limits on the number of blocks/whitelists (e.g., only a few whitelisted numbers) and premium upgrades are required for more extensive blocking
- False positives frequently block legitimate numbers (contacts, employers, healthcare providers)
- Bugs and stability issues (app not refreshing recent calls, UI glitches, iOS 26 compatibility problems)
- Pricing and value complaints about Plus tier being overpriced or perceived as nickel-and-diming
