Call Control
Call Control blocks unwanted calls and text messages, including robocalls and telemarketing.
What Call Control is
Call Control blocks unwanted calls and text messages, including robocalls and telemarketing. Its CommunityIQ system uses community reports and Do Not Call complaints to identify calls and texts for blocking. Enhanced caller ID can show whether a number is associated with an IRS scam or a legitimate business. Users can create personal blocklists for calls and SMS. The Home WiFi product adds landline blocking and remote management through free iOS or Android apps or a free web portal; it can also block calls matching the first six digits of the user’s number. Home WiFi costs $69.99, paid once, with no monthly fees or subscription. Businesses can connect the enterprise service to IP PBX systems to route, block, or send calls to voicemail using rules and CommunityIQ data. REST APIs provide call blocking and preference controls, or return spam and fraud information with a confidence score. Call Control is available on Android, iOS, web, and via API.
