Slightly OT, but android's "screen call" feature has been my number 1 tool is fighting the robocall battle. It's more responsive than the "let all calls go to voicemail" approach, and 80% of robocalls disconnect by themselves when the bot starts talking. It still requires my live "attention" when the call is going through but I'm not that upset about a few wasted seconds, especially if it lets me grab a legitimate call when it's happening.

- VectorLock 7y agoI love this feature a lot. I wish it could kind of combine with voicemail with a recording of the call but then its treading on the 'visual voicemail' territory.
- Shebanator 7y agoGlad you like it. We're hiring :-)

- wyldfire 7y agoI agree it's great, I really like it. Seems like the smarter bots don't disconnect and now they talk in order to get the pitch transcribed with the hopes you'll pick up.
