FAQs

I've enabled and verified Nomorobo on my phone. What do I do now?
Continue to use your phone like normal. All you'll need to do is to wait for the second ring to answer the phone for incoming calls, as Nomorobo needs the first ring to detect robocallers. If you only hear one ring and then it stops, you know a robocaller was just blocked. If the phone continues ringing, you can answer it.
