CallDetector delivers a complete phone call management solution to stop unwanted calls from companies and personal contacts. Developed exclusively for TracFone Wireless devices and compatible Android phones, CallDetector is a robust solution to finally put an end to annoying telemarketers, scams or that one night stand who can’t take a hint. Constructed with the latest monitoring and caller identification protocols, CallDetector empowers users with flexible control options.
Traditionally, prepaid mobile phones offer limited apps and functions. This is especially true when it comes to monitoring and managing incoming calls. CallDetector aims to reclaim the right to privacy, which is a significant concern for prepaid phone users. With its advanced features and robust framework, CallDetector makes it possible to finally stop the incessant attempts by unscrupulous companies and individuals by stopping their calls for good.
CallDetector Features and Options
Caller ID and rudimentary blocking apps aren’t new. In fact, these features are as standard as speed dial for modern smartphones. However, CallDetector isn’t a repackaged caller ID system. Designed to intuitively identify and categorize incoming calls, this intuitive app offers several layers of protection.
Unlike standard caller ID, which only relays the phone number and associated name of the caller, CallDetector not only tells you who’s calling, but why. Made exclusively for CallDetector, CallerYD identifies the caller name or business, but most importantly, defines the purpose of their call.
Leveraging their active database of phone numbers, CallDetector lets you know if the caller is a known telemarketer, scammer or friend. Fortified with a powerful algorithm, gone are the days of not knowing who’s on the other end of the call.
Not sure who called? Use the in-app Reverse Number Lookup feature. Simply type any phone number in the search box and discover whether the caller is a friend or foe. It’s important to note that this feature only works for publicly registered phone numbers. Private or unregistered phone numbers aren’t searchable.
Along with its innovative identification protocol, such as Robocall Detection and ScamBlock, CallDetector takes action against abusive and illegal callers. Not only are known telemarketers and scammers automatically blocked, but filing a complaint with the FTC’s Do Not Call Registry is quick and effective.
In the app, select the unwanted caller and press the thumbs down button. Next, select an appropriate complaint and add personal notes about your experience. Finally, submit the complaint. This official complaint is reviewed by the FTC and adds the number to the internal block list.
Although CallDetector is an exclusive development for TracFone Wireless brands, PrivacyStar offers versions for other Android and iOS devices. It’s important to note that certain features and functions, such as CallerYD and Reverse Number Lookup, aren’t available for all devices.
