Are you fed up with these dozens of unnecessary calls connected to cold calling? And like many French people, you probably try to avoid them by simply not receiving calls from unknown numbers.
But there are solutions to protect against such scourge. But not all of them are as effective as we would like. So it is, for example Bloctel, a free service set up by the government to allow consumers to register their number on a dedicated list to allow them to block ringing calls. But it is clear that this service has its limits, as some direct sellers seem to ignore it.
Most smartphone manufacturers that provide their own phone application have complete options to filter unwanted calls and block unknown numbers that try to contact you. So it is, for example Google Home Phone app.
Unfortunately, these remain very limited, and direct sellers, who are widely available with open numbers, will not hesitate to move you from one number to another (which is not blocked) to call you. Another solution is to use an app Some Telephone completely for the purpose of identifying and blocking the numbers used in the commercial environment. The application allows, among other things, to automatically narrow down numbers that you report or that allow malicious or soliciting input from other users. The app also provides an option to block rural numbers or specific numbers corresponding to teams.
An excellent concept that, unfortunately, deserves to be developed, because it does not allow you to use only a prefix based on the number of spaces. It requires you to enter the full phone number first and only allows you to play on the last four digits.
However, last January, Arcep launched a new billing plan for direct sellers. On the continent of Gaul, all numbers from 0162, 0163, 0270, 0271, 0377, 0378, 0424, 0425, 0568, 0569, 0948 and 0949 are used for roaming.. For Guadeloupe, St-Martin and St-Barthélemy the prefix used starts with 09475. Direct sellers should also use the prefix 09476 for Guyana, 09477 for Martinique, 09478 for Reunion, and 09479 for Mayotte. Based on this observation, it seems that it is quite simple to block unwanted calls, since it would be enough to immediately block all numbers starting with these prefixes.
But for this you need to find an application that provides this ability. This is what the application provides Call filter on Android (CallFilter). Downloadable for free, this application does not include any advertising and does not seem to collect personal data, if we refer to what its developer declared to Google in the Play Store. First of all, unlike other such devices, this one should not be configured as the default phone. For this reason, you can continue using your usual Phone application. Is it his fault? His translation into French is sometimes very dangerous.
1. Download Call Filter
Go to the Google Play Store from your smartphone Download the Call Filter app. Rated 4.8/5 (more than 100,000 reviews), the application received more than a million takes the form of a simple call log in which the numbers of incoming and outgoing calls are reported.
2. Configure the app
Now open the app on your device. Before you can use them, you must accept the application’s privacy rules and policies. Press on Accept and continue. Call Filter then show a warning to let you know that the Android app requires permission to be used as the default app to block spam. Press the button then (Oops translation!). You should then see a pop-up appear inviting you to Set Call Filter as default app to show caller number and spam. So press the button Define by default.
Now you need some permissions on the app. Tap Grant permissions and then, in the next window, touch the Allow button to allow Call Filter to access your contacts. You will need to grant this access to be able to see the incoming phone numbers present in the e-book. This will also show the names of your contacts in the call log rather than just the number.
3. Allow to filter by the number of septa temple
Similar to what Golden Telephone offers, by default, Call Filter automatically blocks all known unwanted numbers in its database (updated daily). The application also allows you to create a list of numbers that are automatically blocked and sent to your mailbox if they try to contact you. It can even go further by blocking numbers using a specific prefix. This option is not active by default.
Get up to it, to the theme SettingTherefore, to approach The setting is dangerous. Then active by option through wildcards
