What Blacklist Does

Blacklist creates a contact named "Blacklisted Number" full of thousands of numbers (over 30,000 and growing) belonging to US telemarketers, scammers, and prank callers on your iPhone so that when one of these numbers calls, you know not to answer. With the minutes it saves you, Blacklist should pay for itself.

How Blacklist Works

Blacklist connects to callerdb.com's extensive database of problem callers every time you sync. You can do your part and add to this database by using the Submit Number feature.
