    Caller ID

    Functionality is not available in some regions.

    Available only in Kaspersky Plus and Kaspersky Premium.

    The Caller ID component can tell you who is calling from an unknown number. Phone numbers are checked against phone number databases of the Kaspersky Who Calls app. If a number is found in the databases, the incoming call screen displays information about that number, for example, the name of the organization that the number is registered for.

    If a spammer is calling, the screen displays a spam indicator. It is then up to you whether to pick up the phone or not. You can configure spam calls to be always blocked. All incoming spam calls are then automatically hidden.

    To use Caller ID, you must download and install the Kaspersky Who Calls app for Android or iOS.
