Setting a new record, US residents received almost 59 billion robocalls in 2019. And the robocall problem is worldwide, affecting billions of people. But if you have a good call screening and blocking app, you can at least stop robocalls from bothering you on your cellphone.
The leading call management and screening app YouMail has been fighting to protect people through its robocall-blocking apps for over a decade. In the past year, YouMail added to its impressive accomplishments. In just 2019 alone, it stopped hundreds of millions of robocalls, drastically reducing the volume of robocalls that make it through to YouMail users.
In recent years, YouMail has also been helping policymakers and the public better understand the robocall problem. The company provides estimates on the size and scope of the US robocall problem, as well as monthly and annual breakdowns of the different types of robocalls (alerts, payment reminders, telemarketing, and scams), and geographic data on where the problem is most acute.
As a result, YouMail estimates are now widely cited by the FCC and other policymakers, the media, and industry analysts. States have also referenced YouMail in their anti-robocall efforts — most recently Pennsylvania and Missouri.
For telecom companies and mobile carriers, YouMail also enables them to better identify problem numbers in order to shut down the perpetrators. YouMail uses proprietary, patented technology to recognize as many robocallers as possible, then plays them an out-of-service greeting, spoofing robocaller systems into believing the user’s number is invalid. This strategy removes users from marketing lists and prevents robocallers from leaving irritating voice messages.
How YouMail lets you stop robocalls
YouMail includes a free service that reliably identifies robocallers and plays robocallers an out of service message, which causes them to stop calling. This service works by replacing your usual mobile voicemail with the out of service greeting — even when your phone is off or out of service.
By contrast, other call blocking apps force one-at-a-time blocking, which is ineffective as it lets robocallers call from different numbers and leave voice messages. With those other apps, people still have to go into their phones to listen to and delete the messages.
In addition, YouMail also provides an updated visual voicemail service that includes a large cloud-based inbox, the ability to play personalized greetings based on caller ID, and the ability to automatically collect information from callers through an automated text reply.
Innovative call manager app features
With YouMail’s premium service, you’ll also get a virtual receptionist call screening service. As a call screening app, YouMail greets callers by name with a professionally recorded, customized greeting. And while you’re on vacation or busy with another task, it can route your calls to colleagues.
YouMail can also instantly reply to callers with a unique “auto-reply” feature. You can set auto-replies to send your callers to custom mobile landing pages with alternative communication channels. There, you can even include optional actions like making appointments or even completing a sale.
Through intelligent call management, you can keep track of your missed calls and voicemails, and never miss any important information.
Easy conference call app features
As if all of that wasn’t enough, YouMail also simplifies your on-the-go conference calls, saving you time and frustration. As a YouMail user, you get a conference room associated with your mobile number. This way, you never need to memorize a PIN or access code.
When you need to hold a conference call, you simply message people to call their cell and press “8”. And after your call, YouMail’s Smart Summary feature sends all participants a summary of the call.
YouMail’s enhanced communication features just might make it your favorite vital productivity tool. After answering billions of calls for its users, the company has established itself as a leader in intelligent telephony services. You can find the YouMail robocall blocker / call manager app on Apple’s App Store and Google’s Play Store.
