Hello there!
If you're fed up with getting calls from unknown numbers, you're in the right place.
I used to get a lot of silent calls from unknown numbers. These are calls where the line just drops when you answer. I think these calls are from robots checking if the number is active. Then, other numbers from the same organizations would call me with offers - banks, beauty salons, dentists, and so on. And of course, there were scammers.
Frankly, I'd rather not answer unknown numbers at all, but sometimes it's a work call or a delivery guy. So, not answering unknown numbers isn't an option for everyone.
The solution is to install a caller ID app. I used the caller ID app from Yandex, and it's completely free.
I'll give you the lowdown on its pros and cons.
Caller ID - Yandex appHow to get started?The app is integrated into the Yandex interface. You don't need to download it separately, but you do need to have the Yandex app.
Open it and head to this section.

Caller ID - Yandex appHow does it work?
When you get a call from an unknown number, Yandex will provide a comment below the number.
You can also check your missed and answered calls.
To do this, you need to click on the caller ID option in Yandex.
Yandex categorizes my missed calls into several groups, with a 'Maybe' note.
Most of the time, it identifies the calls as ads:

Yandex Number Identifier App By the way, if you're waiting for a delivery from well-known transport companies, their numbers get identified too. It'll say 'courier'. And some companies might even be signed. This looks like this:
Yandex Number Identifier App You can easily add the number to your contacts or call back from the app. Also, you can rate whether the call was marked correctly. I always try to mark it, because it's useful.
Yandex Number Identifier App A few months ago, the number identifier kept marking courier calls as spam. My personal observation - spam calls, especially silent ones, won't call you multiple times. At least that's what happened to me. So, if the courier can't reach you, they'll probably call back.
The Verdict
I think the app is really worth it and I'd recommend it.
It accurately identifies the type of call,It doesn't require any extra settings,It's lightweight,It identifies many calls, including the company name,The company catalog often gets updated automatically Cons:
It might mark a necessary call as spam (rarely, but still),It doesn't block calls automatically,It's not convenient for those who don't use Yandex Thanks for reading!
