Savvy chicks are often busy girls with a lot of people to see and talk to. Whether it is the business contact whose call you can’t miss or the ex who wants to reunite, PrivacyStar, a mobile app for BlackBerry and Android smartphones helps you manage the influx of calls each day. PrivacyStar blocks any and all unwanted callers – individual numbers, all private or unknown numbers or entire area codes. Users do not hear a ring and callers do not realize they are being blocked. PrivacyStar also offers the most robust caller ID functionality for smartphones. PrivacyStar displays the name of the caller even if they are not in your address book. PrivacyStar’s Do Not Disturb feature forwards all non-blocked numbers to voicemail, while sending a custom text message. Perfect for those moments when you need a break.
PrivacyStar offers a host of other features that are not found anywhere else. Top among those are the ability to report telemarketing violators of Do Not Call laws. That is right – if you are receiving telemarketing calls on your Android or BlackBerry smartphone and you are on the national Do Not Call Registry, you can send a complaint to the FTC straight from your phone. PrivacyStar collects all the relevant caller information and along with your personal comments, will send the complaint to the regulatory authorities. PrivacyStar also lets you report unfair debt collecting practices to the FTC – because if you have already made arrangements to pay back your student loans you shouldn’t be hassled at 2:00am.
PrivacyStar is available at BlackBerry App World and the Android Market. Available for a free no-risk 7-day trial, PrivacyStar is $2.99 a month thereafter. Discounted 6-month and 1 year subscriptions are available.
