★★★★★
Easy to use. Scanned results of tel nos. Match with another commonly used scam app. Overall good.
★★★★★
Useful App to check for scam numbers & websites. Unlike some of the negative reviewers, I have made several reports, and it worked fine and efficiently. Also, it doesn't "drain" the battery, as another falsely reported. One complaint I have is that it tells me to update the database Too Frequently. Instead, it should have an option to automatically update the database say twice a day, automatically, in the background, when Wi-Fi is connected. That's a pretty common feature and should be added.
★★☆☆☆
Trash app. I enter many scam numbers and says no report. I don't have time to complete Police report. Please delete and trash this app
★★☆☆☆
Blocked my data (initially thought it was my own network) and apps said no connection. Until after uninstalled this app, my data and apps suddenly started working again. Also, 43% of battery being used by app is a bit ridiculous.
★★☆☆☆
Massive AD campaign for a poor app. Feels like a scam app, unable to OTP register as no field to input code. Cloudflare human verification on every form submit, it stole my phone number already. Assume no biometrics integration which should be encouraged. News prompts to another web page and should display native in app. Exact navigation like IamSmart app, just an enhance front end interface. Overall UX design does not feel professional enough and very poor perception to HK government.
