What Corta Spam is

Corta Spam is a free, open-source Android app that screens incoming calls against rules before the phone rings. Depending on a match, it can allow or block a call, or answer with a greeting. Rules can cover allowed and blocked numbers, wildcard patterns, country codes, quiet hours, repeat callers and an in-app spam list. The call log identifies the rule behind each decision, while blocked-call statistics summarize activity by day, week and month, calculated from local midnight. Users can make a manual JSON backup and inspect it before sharing. An optional experimental auto-responder answers blocked calls with a greeting supplied by the user. The maker says the app declares no internet permission, opts out of Android automatic backup and keeps call logs on the device. It lists Spanish, English, Brazilian Portuguese and Hindi, and is licensed under MIT. Support is available by email or through a GitHub issue. The repository says the Android APK builds. An iOS shell builds and runs, but iOS call blocking is pending a CallDirectory extension; the maker says iOS cannot support action-based blocking at call time or the scripted auto-responder.

Good

  • Rules can allow or block numbers and patterns
  • Call log shows the rule behind each decision
  • Statistics cover blocked calls by day, week and month
  • Manual JSON backups can be inspected before sharing
  • Maker says the app declares no internet permission

Watch out

  • Experimental auto-responder is optional
  • iOS call blocking is still pending
  • iOS does not support call-time action blocking or auto-responder

Who it suits

Corta Spam suits Android users who want incoming calls handled by configurable rules before the phone rings. Its rule log, local statistics and manual backup may also suit users who want to inspect call decisions and backup data.

Verdict

Corta Spam offers rule-based call screening, with a call log and local blocked-call statistics. It is built for Android; the iOS shell does not yet provide call blocking.
