The goal of this project is to provide a free and open source application that can block unwanted calls or warn about probable intentions of the callers using a third-party crowdsourced phone number database (from some other proprietary app).
## How to use
* Install and launch the app.
* Press the "Download database" button on the main screen, wait for it finish.
The DB will be downloaded from [here](https://gitlab.com/xynngh/YetAnotherCallBlocker_data).
* At this point you should be able to see notifications with some caller info during incoming calls.
You can press such a notification to load detailed online reviews.
* Check the "Auto-update enabled" switch (recommended) to automatically receive daily DB updates (these are delta updates, so they consume very little traffic).
* Check the "Block unwanted calls" switch if you want to enable automatic blocking.
* After these step everything should just work. Enjoy!
## Features
At this point of time only very basic features are implemented.
