@nixCraft I have been using Truecaller for half a year now and my phones do not give me anxiety anymore. Paying 3-4x the time for a Pixel is not worth when Truecaller premium per month is so cheap long term. And iPhone had spam protection? Where, I want to try it (reason why I ended up with Truecaller, as iOS has API to allow using apps that provide this).
