It blocks maybe 25% of scam calls. The rest get through on a regular basis. The fact is, scammers are constantly changing the ways they do things. And if an app doesn't constantly change to keep up with them, it quickly becomes obsolete. It seems this is the case with scam shield. Also, the reverse lookup isn't available with the premium version. It's always been grayed out. Just not available. Which is a huge letdown. I'd suggest going with something else.

It works better than I expected. I appreciate the ability to either "block" a number when I'm sure it was spam or "send to voicemail" when I'm not sure. If they call again and don't leave a message or leave a spammy message I can block future calls, but if they leave a non-spam message I can return the call and mark it okay for future calls. This app saves me time and annoyance. As far as I can tell it hasn't made any false positive spam designations. Well worth it.

Doesn't seem to block anything. Not very intuitive. Do I add scam cam calls to list or is it automatic. They're still coming in and its not clear where they can be added. UPDATE 1+ Year later: Since T-Mobile joined with another major provider I had hoped that this app would have improved. But while it is suggested that the protection it offers is free, it is still virtually worthless unless you upgrade to the paid service. Still rates a 'zero' in my book.
