Stop unwanted calls with Nomorobo, a cloud-based service that blocks known robocallers and telemarketers
Nomorobo is a cloud-based service designed to block unwanted robocalls and telemarketer phone calls. It works by maintaining a blacklist of known robocaller numbers and using call forwarding to intercept and block these calls before they can ring through to the user's phone.
To use Nomorobo, users simply forward their calls to a Nomorobo phone number. When an incoming call is identified as a robocaller, Nomorobo will block the call so the user's phone never rings. Legitimate calls will ring through normally. The service claims to be able to block over 95% of robocalls and works with landlines and mobile numbers.
Nomorobo uses crowd-sourced reports of robocaller numbers to continually update its blacklist database. The service also employs algorithms to detect patterns and identify new potential telemarketer numbers to block. Users can report missed robocalls to improve the service's detection.
Nomorobo only blocks calls, it does not have any call recording or other phone tapping capabilities. The service is available for $1.99 per month for landlines or can be used for free on mobile phones. It is an easy to set up and a straightforward way to significantly reduce interruptions from unwanted calls.
