KnownCalls is the new absolutely free call blocker for Android that helps fight spam calls while respecting your privacy.
With KnownCalls your phone will automatically reject calls from numbers not in your Phone book. It will save you time wasted on answering spam calls and messages, and make you an uninteresting target for fraudsters.

No Internet connection required – the app doesn’t use external resources. Works solely with your device’s Phone book!

Modern spammers usually call from different numbers each time so adding each number to a block list might prove ineffective – they might use another number next time they’re calling. Similarly ineffective prove to be other call blocking apps as they usually work with a delay: they have to store your phone calls to a common base and gather enough of information to conclude a number belongs to a spammer, only after which the block works. However, with that mechanism, you might be among those earliest recipients they still get through to. But not with KnownCalls! KnownCalls uses your device’s Phonebook only so rejection of unknown callers is instantaneous. KnownCalls does not collect or send information on your phone calls anywhere!
