Already tried robokiller
It blocks too many legit calls .
Are there any apps that can block these idiots from India using a 337 area code offering fake viagra every 5 mins ?

Don't answer..

I really don't know the best spam blocker, but if I am not familiar with a number I don't answer and if its important they will leave a VM.

I use the one through AT&T. Seems to do the job well enough.

Doesn't help.

I blocked a spammer once and that number called dozens of times (showed up in the block log) before giving up or getting shut down. Never answered that number.

Hiya uses feedback from users to flag suspected junk calls, and labels legitimate businesses accordingly.

Google Assistant screens calls for me so the only time I miss calls is when someone legit tries to call but is too lazy to leave a 2 second voice prompt. The scam and spam callers hang up during the screening every time.

Get a phone with a different area code than where you live

Only answer unknown local calls

YouMail does pretty good, doesnt block them all but it improved (reduced) my spam calls by 95%

I've tried them all. Today I received a spoof call from both my wife and later on today from myself - I didn't think that was possible

Nothing

They just run through numbers with area codes that match your own number or area and its almost impossible for some service to try to block it

Stopping this shite would be easy at a national level but Joe Biden spent that money making you pay for other peoples loans

Deal with it sucker

The FCC is another failed government failure of nothing but fail
