Didn't know this. Looks really really interesting. One feature I found especially nice was the text-message/phone-call spam-protection.

Looked for me to be something like an ignore-list. Something I wish I had here in Germany, when using feature-phones 16 years ago.

Why nobody ever invented a feature inside their phones, I do not know.

My guess is that carriers want to be able to advertise to a captive audience, and in the US and EU, they can largely choose which phones their users buy; so killfiles as a feature are verboten.
