Forget about unwanted calls and spammers spoofing tricks. No registration, no user data collection. WideProtect works completely offline.
There are two ways to add new prefix in the app:
1) quick one - open incoming call in Phone app, tap on action "Share Contact", then tap on action "Block in WideProtect" and then remove several last digits of phone number;
2) classic one - in the application, tap on "+" button, choose Country and check if phone number length is correct, then type several digits of phone number to block.
The latest version supports blocking up to 150,000,000 phone numbers - whole 15 area codes in the USA!
You can find short video manual on Help screen.
WideProtect is free to download. A subscription is required to use the application, but you can try it out completely free for 3-7 days (depends on subscription plan).
The app supports Family Sharing.
Please don't forget to give permissions to block numbers to all 75 WideProtect extensions through 'iPhone Settings -> Phone -> Call Blocking & Identification'.
