Dialer, SMS, and Spam filter

On my hmd skyline i am degoogling. My dialer and sms messenger are all google apps anders i am assuming google is tracking the metadata. I have replaced my dialer with simple dialer and the sms service with QUIK SMS. However, i was wondering if there are any spam filtering apps i Can use that Will keep me safe? should I answer? Seems To Be The best But it is not FOSS. Can i trust it?

Thanks in advance!

i use Carrion (f-droid); however it may not be what you are looking for.

in carrion, numbers fall into 3 categories:

  • known good
  • known bad
  • unknown

carrion can silence the ringer, not show the call and silence the ringer, or allow the call as normal based on settings for each category.

Thanks for the suggestion. I'm going to compare it to the other suggestions.

I used to use Should I Answer. It works well but I'm not sure whether you can trust it privacy-wise.

Thanks for your answer! I am considering this one, since it is easy but the privacy thing being unknown is a concert.
