![]() This database of millions of numbers is collected from everyone who installs the app as part of the End User License Agreement (EULA) that you agree to when installing the app. Spam call blocking apps like Truecaller and Hiya work by comparing the numbers that call you against their huge database of billions of numbers. But as always if the app is free, then you’re the product. They’ll identify numbers you don’t know and they’ll automatically block numbers that are believed to be spammers before they can bother you. On the surface, these apps work as promised. That’s when you start looking for an app to block spam calls on the Google Play Store. It’s annoying when it happens once, but when you get these calls every day, it starts to become problematic. You swipe right and bring the phone to your ear, but before you can even say hello you’re blasted with a cruise ship horn and an enthusiastic computer voice promising you a free cruise. You’re just leaving the gym when you get a call from a number you don’t recognize.
