Apps to block numbers

Anonymous — Sat, 03 Oct 2015 10:29:24 GMT

I currently have a Windows Phone (Lumia 1020) and it has an awesome block list feature and it has the power to block calls and even texts from numbers added to the list.

I will soon be upgrading and probs not be choosing Windows Phone as some of the apps I used to use aren't supported on it, such as WAZE and Snapchat.

Anyway what i want to know is - is there any FREE apps out there on iOS/Android for people that you can add numbers to so that they are blocked instantly?

I am guessing there's probs quite a few but I would rather accept recommendations from the community.

Waze is available on Windows Mobile - I've got it on my 925. Snapchat is available with 6Snap and I understand it's quite reliable.

Waze is available yes, but it's not as fully supported unlike the iOS and Android versions. It doesn't have some of the awesome features.

As for 6Snap, everytime I use that my account is closed so it's not worth the hassle lol.

Most android phones have a call blocker built in already so the answer depends on your ultimate choice of phone.

Well...

I was going to get the iPhone 6S but considering it's price tag at the moment and the demand for £9.99 I am thinking of getting the S6 Edge instead.

Both of those have a built in call and text blocker.

Really?

Interesting. I know of a 6S plus owner and he doesnt have the feature.
