Saracroche is an Android app that protects you from unwanted calls by automatically blocking spam phone calls. It's designed to be simple, effective, and privacy-friendly.
Features:
• Automatically blocks spam numbers
• Hides SMS notifications from spam numbers
• Blocks anonymous (hidden) calls
• "Contacts only" mode: only allows calls from your contacts
• Personal lists: create your own block and allow lists
• Wildcard patterns: use # as a trailing wildcard (e.g. 33162######) to block a range of numbers
• Blocked call log: view the history of filtered calls
• Report a number: help improve community blocklists
• Reverse directory: look up information about a number on saracroche.org
• Native Android application
• Available in French, English, German, Spanish, and Italian
Privacy & Security:
Saracroche prioritizes your privacy. The app operates locally on your device and doesn't collect any personal information or call data. All spam detection is performed on-device using a regularly updated database.
How it works:
The app uses Android's Call Screening Service to automatically identify and block known spam numbers before they can disturb you. When a call comes in, Saracroche checks the number against its spam database and blocks it if it's identified as spam. Lists are automatically updated every 24 hours and downloaded from saracroche.org.
Requirements:
• Android 10 (API level 29) or higher
• Permission to be set as the default caller ID & spam blocking app for call screening
• Intended for use in France only
Open Source:
Saracroche is open source software under the GPLv3 license. You can review the code, contribute, or build it yourself from the source code available on Codeberg.
