These are the three changes in CallApp: Caller ID & Block that stand out in the developer's update notes and on its Google Play listing this week.

Google Play says the build adds an SMS feature for sending and receiving messages. The notes also describe spam-message protection, without explaining its exact controls.
- 02Caller ID covers three calling services
The notes add Caller ID for WhatsApp, Viber, and Telegram calls. They do not explain how identification appears or whether extra setup is needed.
- 03Bug fixes are included, without detail
Google Play also mentions bug fixes, but provides no list of corrected issues. The notes do not identify a particular problem or describe other technical changes.
Our call on whether to update, and the link to the official Google Play listing, are on this issue's CallApp: Caller ID & Block page.

Tips
- Review SMS before making it default
The app description says CallApp can be used as your default SMS app, while the latest notes announce an SMS feature. If you want to try it, review Android’s default SMS app prompt and the app’s own explanation first. Choosing a default messaging app can affect which app handles text messages, so decide based on your needs.
- Check how spam messages are handled
CallApp’s description says it can identify and block unwanted SMS, and the release notes mention protection from spam messages. If you use its messaging features, look in the app’s Settings for spam or message controls. Review any filtering options so you understand what may be separated or blocked before relying on them.
- Use caller identification with care
The description presents caller identification and number lookup as ways to recognize unknown callers, while the new notes add Caller ID for calls on WhatsApp, Viber, and Telegram. Treat an identified name as a clue rather than proof of who is calling. Check the call details and use your judgment before sharing information.
Menu names follow the developer's help pages and can differ slightly between versions and phones.
How we write the digest
Each week we check the Google Play listings of the apps our readers use most: the version number, the update date and the developer's What's new notes. When an app has a new version, we put the developer's update notes and the listing details together on one page, in plain words, with a link to the official Google Play listing. Google and most developers release updates in stages over several days, so a version listed here may not have reached your phone yet. Therapymetric is an independent site and is not affiliated with any developer. This page doesn't read your phone or your Google account, and nothing is installed from here.
FAQ
Is this the official list of CallApp changes?
No. This is an independent site and is not affiliated with CallApp Caller ID, Call Recorder & Spam Blocker. The app’s Google Play page is the authority for its release notes and current listing. This editorial describes the information supplied there and does not add an official account of how the changes work.
Why does Google Play show Open instead of Update?
Google Play rolls builds out over several days, so a listing can show Open while a newer build is still being offered in stages. Check the app’s Play page again later for its current status. The notes do not promise a particular arrival time, and the version label can vary with device.
Do I need to make CallApp my default SMS app?
The app description says CallApp can be used as a default SMS app, but the release notes do not say that switching is required to receive the new feature. Review Android’s default-app prompt and CallApp’s guidance before choosing. If you prefer another messaging app, check the listing for more information about available use.
