EZ CallFilter

- a standalone mini application ranked #1 by Ottawa Business Journal

EZ CallFilter enables you to block unwanted calls (Blacklist Rule), or allow certain calls only (Whitelist Rule). You can easily

  • create/delete Whitelist (e.g. My Family) or Blacklist (e.g. Telemarketers) rules
  • add/remove numbers to/from a rule
  • wildcard support in rule configuration (e.g. blocking 1800*)
  • activate/de-activate rules manually or by schedule (at specific time)
  • manage filtered call logs
  • other goodies: block call quietly; user can specify blocking method (voicemail or drop); convenient alert
  • more: built-in rules for unknown numbers, addressbook, block all; Join National Don't Call List interface
  • even more: fully integrated with Phone logs and addressbook (Contact)


A "Rule" contains a list of numbers. PhoneBasics Call Filter provides three default rules:
    -- Address Book List (White): contains whatever numbers in phone's address book
    -- Block All (Black): All numbers
    -- Block Unknown Numbers (Black): Any incoming call that hides its number

You should create your own "whitelist" or "blacklist" rules for better control. A Rule is not in effect until it is activated.

  • When Whitelist rules are activated, all numbers in the rules will be allowed; while all other numbers will be blocked
  • When Blacklist rules are activated, all numbers in the rules will be blocked; while all other numbers will be allowed
