FAQs

Can CallApp record calls?

CallApp is a mobile app that offers caller ID, spam blocking, and call recording features. Users can set the app to automatically record calls by going to the CallApp menu and tapping the Settings icon, then Recorder. To manually record calls, tap the Recording icon at the bottom-right corner of the screen while on a call.

How does CallApp block spam calls?

Like most robocall blocking apps, CallApp blocks spam calls against databases of known spammers as well as users’ individual blocklists. Although customers can remove numbers from their blocklists, CallApp does not let them create an allow list of numbers that are always passed through.

In addition to using blocklists, allow lists, and a global scammer database that includes over 1.5 billion phone numbers, Robokiller blocks spammers by branding each one with a unique audio fingerprint. That means that even when spammers change their numbers, we’ll make sure you still don’t hear from them.

How do I add a number to my CallApp blocklist?

While CallApp customers aren’t able to create allow lists, they can maintain their own individual blocklists, which are separate from the global databases the app uses to deny spammers. If you want to add a phone number manually, go to the Block tab in the menu, tap “Add new entry”, and then fill in the number. You can also long-tap the contact or number and tap the Block button on the menu that appears.

Can CallApp block text messages?

Unfortunately for CallApp users, the app doesn’t have the capability of protecting against dangerous spam texts. Many scammers use smishing (or SMS phishing) to trick their recipients into clicking links that download harmful malware onto the device or direct to phony webpages. Some of these scams can be convincing, and falling for just one can lead to long-term financial problems or even identity theft.

Robokiller, on the other hand, offers its users full, around-the-clock protection from scam and spam text messages and the criminals who send them.

How much does CallApp cost?

Although CallApp is a free service, you’ll have to upgrade to CallApp Premium for $1.99 per month to access the full scope of its features. Robokiller offers users full reign of all of its advanced features, free for seven days, and after that, for only $4.99 per month or $39.99 per year — a small price to pay for total peace of mind.

Does CallApp work with my phone?

Unfortunately for CallApp fans, the service is only available for Android. Fortunately for all mobile users, however, Robokiller is available on Android and iPhone devices on all major networks, all over the globe.

The tools you need to live spam-free

Here are some of Robokiller’s unique features (that you can’t get with CallApp).
Customizable call blocking
arrow down

Like Robokiller, CallApp allows you to customize your blocklist. However, unlike Robokiller, CallApp doesn't let you create an allow list. As a result, the app may block calls you want from getting through.

Audio fingerprinting
arrow down

Like most spam blockers, CallApp simply blocks calls from phone numbers on a blocklist. The problem is, scammers can just change numbers to get around that. Robokiller, on the other hand, uses machine learning to detect scammers based on their unique audio fingerprints. Scammers may change their numbers, but they can’t change their voices.

Spam text blocking
arrow down

CallApp does not offer SMS protection. Robokiller, on the other hand, offers 99% effective robotext blocking.

Protection against spoofed calls
arrow down

Some robocallers imitate local phone numbers so you’re more likely to answer them. Robokiller knows how to identify and stop these sneaky spam calls before they even reach you.

Answer Bots
arrow down

Robokiller doesn’t just block robocalls, we make it fun. Answer Bots intercept incoming spam calls and mimic a real person to waste telemarketers’ time. You can even listen to the recordings. It’s a little poetic justice (and bonus entertainment) that CallApp just can’t offer.
