Description
Got tired of annoying robocalls, telemarketers and phone scammers? Just define phone number prefixes and block up to 150 million numbers!
Forget about unwanted calls and spammers spoofing tricks. No registration, no user data collection. WideProtect works completely offline.
There are two ways to add new prefix in the app:
1) quick one - open incoming call in Phone app, tap on action "Share Contact", then tap on action "Block in WideProtect" and then remove several last digits of phone number;
2) classic one - in the application, tap on "+" button, choose Country and check if phone number length is correct, then type several digits of phone number to block.
The latest version supports blocking up to 150,000,000 phone numbers - whole 15 area codes in the USA!
You can find short video manual on Help screen.
WideProtect is free to download. A subscription is required to use the application, but you can try it out completely free for 3-7 days (depends on subscription plan).
The app supports Family Sharing.
Please don't forget to give permissions to block numbers to all 75 WideProtect extensions through 'iPhone Settings -> Phone -> Call Blocking & Identification'.

Ratings and Reviews
It's something I was looking for
Bought monthly subscription and now it says that subscription gonna renew automatically in a month. A question: how to cancel subscription if app won't work for me?
Developer Response ,
Hi there, thank you for your review!
To cancel a subscription, you need to go to iPhone Settings -> your Apple ID -> Subscriptions menu. There you will see all active subscriptions and will be able to cancel any of them.
If you face any problems with the app, please let me know via email (screen Help - Contact Developer), I will help you with settings.
Thank you!
It doesn’t worked, fake
I have more than 20 spam calls from NY , buy this app and try to block +1212 prefix , but still get calls from these numbers, if there is any option for refund, I ask for it
Developer Response ,
Hello,
it seems that you have defined incorrect prefixes.
Could you provide me via email (support@v-and.com):
1) screenshot of WideProtect app to see what prefixes you have added;
2) screenshot of 'iPhone Settings: Phone: Call Blocking & Identification' to see that all WideProtect extensions are enabled;
3) screenshot with incoming call, which should be blocked, to see what number it has.
Also check these notices please:
- blocked calls may be forwarded to voicemail, as it works on mobile operator side (contact your mobile operator for details).
- if you use 'Do Not Disturb' mode, blocked calls may appear silently on Home screen and in Recently list - to avoid it disable DND mode.
It worked
I used to get calls from really advanced scammers that would not stop by using local area numbers and from cities near by some times 3 or more times a day. But now I haven’t got one of these calls in over a year! If you need to block millions of possibilities this app will work. Even though I no longer get spam calls anymore I keep my subscription active just in case.
Developer Response ,
Thank you very much for your review and for using the app!
