Hello to all. Lately I've been receiving a lot of spam calls under private number. Is there a way to block them? Any app?

I use Yet Another Call Blocker. It has a custom block list you can use to block a specific number.

The block list also supports wildcard characters, which is my favorite feature! I use it to block swaths of numbers (much of my spam comes from the state I used to live in, so I block those area codes).

Downloaded and trying. Can block private numbers?

It can block hidden numbers, if that's what you mean by "private".

I hope you like the app!
