Call blocking on Ubuntu touch

🚫📞 I’ve created exPhone, a call-blocking app for Ubuntu Touch! It blocks unwanted calls (including “ex-” calls 😄). Built with libwatchfish, SQLite, and AI tools for the logo. Despite UX feedback, I’m proud of the journey! 🚀

I've created a simple call-blocking app for Ubuntu Touch! 🚫📞 It's currently under review, and I hope it will be live on the open-store soon.

#Android needs a "soft block" feature for incoming calls. One that doesn't block the number, nor send it immediately to voicemail, but that simply ignores the call, and lets it eventually reach voicemail as though you didn't answer the phone.

That way those of us with horrible family members can simply pretend they don't exist without giving them the satisfaction of knowing they're blocked.

I’ve been getting lots of spam calls from a specific U.S. prefix (first three digits after area code). I found an article that listed a bunch of fixes that I don’t actually have access to. I just created a contact with just the area code and prefix as its phone number. I blocked that contact. Do you know if it will work?
