Peeved with those unwanted calls and annoying unknown numbers? Well, mobile phone users who are literally fretted with disturbing calls may now breathe easier. First Orion has recently announced that its Blackberry app, PrivacyStar, is available to download at MobiHand.
Giving users an opportunity to take complete control of their device, the new application enables users to block any and all unwanted callers, identify unknown callers with the integrated Caller Lookup and easily report unwanted telemarketing violators with all details necessary for investigation to regulatory enforcement authorities.
“Since the launch of PrivacyStar just a few weeks ago, we’ve seen incredible growth in our user base and it’s clear that our customers are blocking callers, filing complaints and looking up numbers at record levels every day,” stated Jeff Stalnaker, CEO of First Orion. “We are excited that now through our partnership with MobiHand, BlackBerry users in both the United States and Canada have a new way to take control of their phone.”
PrivacyStar allows users to easily identify unknown callers, even those calling from 1-800 numbers. When an unwanted call is received, the app intelligently captures detailed information about possible violations including date, time, number and identity.
Further, after an unknown call is received, users can access the Caller Lookup feature to identify the caller by name. Users can then choose to block that call or add it to their address book. Pretty impressively, all blocked numbers can be viewed on a personalized web portal that is fully integrated with the phone. Additionally, a number that is blocked one day can be unblocked the next with a touch of a button.
The PrivacyStar Blackberry app is free for the first 30 days and is available immediately for download from MobiHand. Following the free trail period, the app will cost users $2.99 per month.
