Call Screen allows you to block incoming calls from unwanted sources, on a temporary or permanent basis:

  • Create and maintain a list of numbers to be screened. Incoming calls from the "screened callers" list will be blocked.
  • Temporarily activate or deactivate the feature as needed.
  • Numbers may be added or removed from the "screened callers" list at any time.
  • Block future calls from the last caller, even if you do not know the caller's telephone number.
  • If one of the parties on your "screened callers" list attempts to call your number, your phone will not ring. The screened caller will hear the following pre-recorded announcement: "We're sorry, the number you have reached is not accepting calls at this time. Thank you and goodbye."
  • Combine Call Screen with Call Display to maximize your ability to track and control incoming calls.
