What Sync.me is for

Sync.me is a caller ID, spam call blocker and SMS filter for Android. It is aimed at calls and texts from numbers you have not saved, such as a delivery driver, a bank, a clinic or a telemarketer. The developer says it gives you more information about a number before you answer, call back or act on a message.

The listing presents it as one app that combines caller identification, reverse phone lookup, spam protection, text filtering and contact management.

Identifying unknown callers and reverse lookup

For a number that is not in your contacts, the app shows whatever caller name, photo, business details and phone number information it has on file. Reverse phone lookup works the same way for any number you want to check, including one you have no record of.

The summary also mentions photos for every contact, so saved contacts get photos as well. Contact management sits in the same app, so the saved list and the unknown-number lookups are handled in one place.

Blocking spam, robocalls and telemarketers

The app flags numbers that have been reported as spam, scam, fraud, robocall or telemarketing. It is built to stop those calls rather than just label them, according to the listing's account of blocking spam and robocalls.

A flagged number appears with its category before you answer, so you can tell a telemarketer from a number tied to a scam at a glance.

Filtering texts and spotting phishing

SMS filtering moves unwanted text messages out of your way. The listing also says the app checks messages for possible phishing attempts, meaning links or requests that look like an attempt to get personal details.

Because a text can arrive from a number you do not know, the same identification data used for calls also applies to messages.
