About Begone: Spam Call Blocker
Begone is a productivity app for iOS. It lets you block individual numbers or number ranges quickly and effortlessly. It can also act as a private directory for people or companies that you don’t want to add to your contacts but want to identify when called by.
Begone uses a simple wildcard character mechanism to add numbers into its database. You can use the # character as the wildcard. For example, when you enter +1 212-555-#### to its block list, Begone blocks the numbers from +1 212-555-0000 to +1 212-555-9999. This way, you can immediately block tens of thousands of numbers with one simple entry.
If you enter a number or number range to the directory list of Begone, the title you enter will be displayed as the Caller ID of a matching number when you receive a call. This way, you can remember who the number belongs to, without ever adding it to your contacts.
You can easily import and export your configuration with a single tap. Then, you can share your lists with friends and family.
Features of Begone:
• Easy to use interface to add number ranges quickly and effortlessly.
• Blocked, allowed and directory lists to manage any caller number
• Ability to call numbers not added as number ranges
• Easy import and export for list configuration
• Detailed VoiceOver design for better accessibility support
• Dark mode support
• Interoperability with Junkman - Smart SMS Spam Filter
-----
Begone works completely locally on your device. It does not collect or transmit any data you enter into it. Begone respects the privacy of its users with utmost importance.
