what's going on youtube gsnowright here
0:02
in today's video we have something very
0:04
interesting but this time for android
0:06
people i know some of you may not have
0:08
an android device lying around but your
0:10
wife might your girlfriend might your
0:11
boyfriend husband or somebody in your
0:13
family might have an android device or
0:15
maybe even your friends and today i'm
0:17
going to show you a very interesting
0:19
application that you might want to
0:21
recommend them to use this one is called
0:23
robot color now i'm not sure if it's
0:25
going to be available for ios in the
0:27
future or not but for now it's only
0:29
available for android however what this
0:31
application does is to basically filter
0:33
out and block unwanted calls from
0:36
telemarketers or from you know scams and
0:39
so on there are a lot of scams coming
0:41
from various countries that would call
0:43
you and claim that they're from irs or
0:45
the you know the government that have to
0:47
pay a big amount of money because you
0:49
did something illegal and stuff like
0:51
that and most of the times you know it's
0:53
a fake call because they have a heavy
0:55
accent and they don't really make sense
0:57
now that's not the only problem there
0:58
are a lot of marketing calls that go
1:00
through there are a lot of marketing
1:02
text or even fraud sms messages that you
1:05
can get that pretend to be your bank or
1:07
pretend to be amazon and tell you that
1:09
well you have an order pending or your
1:12
credit card has been blocked well those
1:14
are all scams and if you fall for them
1:16
and you click the links that they send
1:17
you you can actually end up losing your
1:20
money or your personal information so
1:22
this application robocall blocker would
1:24
actually help you to block at least 99
1:27
of those unwanted calls because the
1:29
application would be able to filter it
1:30
out for you so let me actually show you
1:32
the application installed on my device
1:34
all right so we're here on my device
1:36
this is my android device that i have in
1:38
here it's an lg and as you can see we
1:40
have the application over here called
1:42
roboblocker now if you want to find it
1:44
to go here to the play store and it's
1:46
actually quite easy to find you just
1:48
have to search for it roboblocker so i'm
1:50
going to go ahead in here and search for
1:52
it and it's this one over here robocall
1:54
blocker spam filter and of course
1:56
there's an update available as well i'm
1:58
gonna do the update and as you can see
2:00
this is the application if you open the
2:02
details in here it tells you everything
2:04
about the application it can
2:05
automatically block robocalls and spam
2:08
calls identify fraud spam and scams
2:10
before you pick up and control who can
2:13
call you so yes it's an application i
2:15
would definitely recommend you to get
2:17
now if you open it it looks like this it
2:19
says under protection over here because
2:21
it's installed in my case and it even
2:22
shows how many calls it blocked for you
2:24
in the last seven days and how many
2:26
calls it blocked globally that's a huge
2:29
number that's a lot of scam and fraud
2:31
and of course marketing calls that it
2:33
has blocked for the other user
2:35
fortunately for me i don't currently
2:37
have a sim card on this android device
2:39
so i don't really get calls on it but
2:40
when i did i used to have a lot of scam
2:43
calls especially marketing calls calling
2:45
me about various products and stuff like
2:47
that but yeah it can be pretty scary and
2:49
they can actually make you tell them a
2:51
lot of private information if you get
2:53
scared and believe it's real and this
2:54
application can prevent a lot of those
2:56
calls from coming through now in here in
2:58
settings you have customize my blocker
3:01
which is actually quite powerful it
3:02
allows you to block calls that are not
3:04
in your contacts which is pretty useful
3:06
for grandma or your mother or you know
3:08
your parents if they're older and they
3:10
don't really know how to use their
3:12
device very well and so on you want to
3:14
make sure they don't pick up on any spam
3:16
calls and someone you can basically
3:18
block any call that is not in their
3:20
contacts and that would be pretty easy
3:21
to do you can block voice over ip calls
3:24
that's actually nice because most of
3:26
these scam calls are coming from scam
3:29
call centers in india and so on and
3:31
those use voice over ip they use
3:34
software that basically generates a fake
3:36
number so that it looks like they're
3:37
calling from the us but those are voice
3:40
over ip numbers and if you block those
3:43
many of those scam calls will not go
3:45
through because they don't use real
3:46
phone numbers now for those of you who
3:48
get premium for this application you can
3:50
block calls from toll-free numbers you
3:52
can block anonymous calls you can block
3:55
international calls if you want to be
3:57
only called from the us or where you
3:59
live you can basically block
4:00
international calls if there's no reason
4:02
somebody would call you from abroad and
4:03
you have repeated calls allow list
4:05
you're also having here fraud sms
4:07
detection which can detect dangerous
4:09
texts based on machine learning and then
4:11
you have in here called guard which is
4:13
basically all unknown calls are filtered
4:15
identified and reported by colgard once
4:18
enabled here on the left is the block
4:20
list and then the allow list you can add
4:22
numbers by pressing the plus button in
4:24
there and it's as simple as that if you
4:26
want somebody to always be able to reach
4:28
you you add their number to the allow
4:30
list you can get notifications from the
4:31
application when somebody is trying to
4:33
call you and it's a scam you can of
4:35
course improve blocking by running the
4:37
application in the background to do that
4:39
you press here on set and so after this
4:41
you will be able to basically run the
4:43
application in the background which

allows even better scanning so that's
