I, too, have an android and will be looking into it. I use Mr Number, but it's hit/miss sometimes and lately some of these numbers that pop up (I don't answer the phone) don't even exist when I make attempts to call back from my work phone to see who it was. Literally, I get a recording telling me that the number is either not in service, or no longer in service. <o:p></o:p></p></div><p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p><div><div><p class=MsoNormal>On Tue, Jun 4, 2019 at 8:40 AM Scott Reed via Hidden-discuss <<a href="mailto:hidden-discuss@lists.hidden-tech.net">hidden-discuss@lists.hidden-tech.net</a>> wrote:<o:p></o:p></p></div><blockquote style='border:none;border-left:solid #CCCCCC 1.0pt;padding:0in 0in 0in 6.0pt;margin-left:4.8pt;margin-top:5.0pt;margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:5.0pt'><div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'><span style='font-size:12.0pt;color:#1F497D'>Should I Answer is customizable.
