👍🏽💯

Excellent

Blocking all calls

Yep worked well blocking the number prefix that I wanted blocked, but it’s also blocking on my phone calls. It does let my contact list through though.

Does not block texts

I tried blocking area code and first 3 digits to no avail

Excellent app

I like this

Snail syncing

Takes forever to RESYNC. Please have an update soon to quicken the process.

Sanity saver

These days you’re on your own with people abusing your telephone number. WideProtect makes it easy to dump entire exchanges of boiler rooms and telemarketers. Happy to pay for this one!

Simple and effective

Does exactly what it advertises and the dev support is great. Couldn’t get it working initially due to a conflicting app but after a couple emails the developer had everything squared away.

wonderful app

Very useful to block spam call in China

Bait and switch

Developer got greedy and switched it to a subscription from pay once EDIT: I don’t care you’re still a greedy person. Shame on you.

Fantastic App!

This app allows easy blocking of nefarious area codes, prefixes, and such.
