How to Block Spam Calls on Android and iPhone

Robocalls are so hard to block because they 1) always come from a different number and 2) are designed to come from your own area code, to make you think it’s someone you know. While you can’t block all the spam numbers, and scammers are always figuring out new ways to get through the phone lines, there are still somethings you can do to do limit the number of robocalls you receive.

I'm dealing with spam calls too. Is Callersmart capable of blocking those without me missing important calls? It seems tricky to balance.

So, what if I have my number for business purposes and can't just block random unknown numbers? Customers call my phone and not all new customers will be saved in my phone. If i block the unknow callers i will miss out on jobs but i also want the 20+ calls per day to stop.

Quickfix? I thought this was lifehacker. Also, why is it only showed for IOS and not also for android like the title said. I don't know where to find those settings on android. Could have google this instead of watching this video.

I did this and it worked but now I need to unblock. How can I do that?

[mkv]

Probably good information, but you talk so fast I could never tell.

Music is distracting. Not enough information for Android Smartphones.
