Dear lemmings, what app do you use for calls? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

So my default app for phonecalls doesn't have spam filter or any info on callers. I downloaded truecaller, but it has a lot of ads. Ive been getting a lot more spam calls lately and i want to get a good app to separate important stuff from useless spam what do you recommend?

Also what are your funny stories messing with spam callers?

I've been pretty happy with the Samsung one tbh. It's been good at catching spam.

My Pixel 7 has a call screening function. It asks the caller to identify themselves and why they are calling and shows the dialogue on the screen. Very cool.

You could try the FOSS option on Fdroid: Yet Another Call Blocker
