Country prefix default

[jbjb]

Hi. When I get calls that show caller id without a country prefix eg 600 123 1234 the app automatically adds a +1 prefix when showing on the call list and (I assume) when filtering?

As I am located in Chile (+56) this is inconvenient. Can you change this behavior to use the users home country prefix (should be good for 90% of use cases) or allow user to define the default in settings?

Thanks

Hello! Yes, I think this can be fixed fairly easily. Could you please tell me which country code is shown to the right of the app version at the very bottom of Settings?

The country code is CL

Hi jbjb,

Thanks — CL is correct.

Could you also tell me your Callfilter.app version? I’m trying to reproduce this on my side, but with country code CL it works correctly.



Also, please send 2–3 example numbers exactly as they appear in your call log.

Hi @jbjb

Got it, thanks! I was able to reproduce this and the bug is fixed. The app will no longer add “+1” to numbers that come without a country prefix, and those numbers will now be formatted nicely in the Calls list.
