AT&T Secure Family vs Callfilter.app

AT&T Secure Family has no write-up on Specifiction yet; its figures are above.

Callfilter.app is an Android app that blocks incoming calls according to rules set by the user. It can reject 8-digit numbers, numbers on a personal list, custom-pattern matches, or all incoming calls. Custom matching supports regular expressions, and users can choose to receive a notification when a call is rejected. CallFilter checks calls on the device through Android’s CallScreeningService API, using a local SQLite-based rule engine without remote database lookups. The maker describes it as offline, with no accounts or tracking. Its privacy policy says the app does not send personal data to external servers and does not use third-party SDKs, advertising networks, or tracking libraries. The app is free and open source, and the maker invites users to audit or contribute to the project on GitHub. It filters calls according to the user’s settings; it does not replace the phone app. The Play Store listing warns that some features may not work correctly on Samsung devices running Android 12 or later.
