UA-cam ads 2010:No ads. 2015:Skip ads. 2018:Skip ads after 5 seconds. 2020:Video will play after ads. 2030:Video may play in-between ads. 2050:Video unavailable just watch ads..
Good thing is the video creators are in full control of the ads. We can turn the ads on and off at anytime. In videos longer than 10mins (soon 8mins) we can add any amount of ads to those videos. The thing I love about UA-cam ads is they become a source (or only reliable source) of income for the video creators. To someone like me who takes a whole day to make a 3mins video... this means a lot. Plus it doesn't cost the viewers a penny. A few seconds to you can slowly turn into a dollar that'll go towards me support my family. But when I make a longer video I never take advantage of the ad placements.
Thanks for the info about the app. Are the category manager settings supposed to be grayed out with the basic service? (Nuisance calls, Telemarketing calls, Survey calls, etc.)
Yeah those are the paid features. We have to pay for the "premium" version of the app to access those. But I don't recommend it since we rarely get those calls.
You may get a couple here and there at first. But since this video, I no longer get spam calls. Just calls from unknown phone numbers but they're legitimate businesses.
@@dpirate Not blocking real businesses sounds okay. I've been applying to jobs so I hope when I get interview calls, they don't get accidentally blocked by this
Good Morning, I got a pixel 3a , a few years ago just to have before the phone I really wanted came out. It had a feature on it that I loved. Google has the option to screen calls and you can choose to answer it or not. Do you know if there is a safe app like that I can use for my Samsung device. I am with AT&T and what they have for spam callers is not as good . These calls have really gotten out of hand since the beginning of Covid-19. 😡
Hopefully AT&T puts something in place as well as T-Mobile did. I've been using their app since I made this video and it's very handy! All the spam calls have stopped and if they try to call I get a notification proving the number they blocked. They don't even get my voicemail. If AT&T doesn't make a change T-Mobile is always an option. There is third party methods I tried before using this app but they didn't work for me.
I have a video on an app that'll help a little. Here's the link to it ua-cam.com/video/WSZdthkH_7E/v-deo.html But I haven't found an app that'll simply clean our Fire devices since Clean Master though unfortunately.
With the free live TV options there will also be problems off and on. It will never work flawlessly like the paid cable we grow up on. This is one of the reasons I don't recommend focusing on free live TV only. I don't even use them myself. What I use and recommend are the movie and TV show streaming apps like the Cinemas and TeaTVs (best working ones right now). We can pretty much watch anything on those and at any time. It does take a little learning but once we learn the dos and don't it's easy to use. So why should we wait and watch it live like the old days of cable?
@@dpirate I know you've said that b4 but I like live tv on during the day when I'm home. Can't really watch a TV show or movie while cleaning or messin with the dogs lol.
I don't believe so. If we pay for the "premium" option the most we can do is add individual phone numbers to a block list. But this "premium" option is useless since we can do this in general using the phone's build in block option.
Hi. Don't mean to be off topic from the video but has tea tv and typhoon been working for you. Typhoon not working at all. Tea tv starts loading up links for these two shows im trying to watch then resets every time I try again. Movies on tea tv seem to be working for the most part.
Typhoon has been down off and on for over a month now. So Cinema and TeaTV are to two movies and show apps I recommend currently. I believe the issue you mentioned has something to do with this forced TPlayer prompt. That or they have to fix the 10.0.5 version. In the meantime uninstall this version and grab the ad free 10.0.4 version. It's one version down but it doesn't have this issue plus with no ads. The latest versions of Cinema works too but it has ads. You can get the latest versions of the apps on my website downloadingpirate.com (using the Downloader app for Fire TV devices). And here's my video with all the steps if needed ua-cam.com/video/VCB29tJZqJs/v-deo.html
Yes I do, code is 67724750 with no password needed. But I move most of the apps to my website, downloadingpirate.com. We can use the Downloader app to access the website on Fire TV devices.
Yes, once you open the app there's a option to see the full list of the blocked numbers if needed. But when every it blocks a number it'll show you a notification with the number it blocked at the time of the call.
I haven't noticed any major problems with the latest version 2.2.2. But which show or movie is this happening on? I ask because in some cases the movie or episode of a show hasn't been released yet. But it's still displayed within Cinema and this causes some confusion.
I checked after reading your comment and I noticed Real Debrid is down for me as well. Someone else commented about it as well as well (on a different video) so it seems like this is happening to all of us. This has happened before but for a short period of time. I'm sure everything will be back to normal later tonight or tomorrow. Feel free to update me if it doesn't.
Did you call them or just install the app? Because this options is free for T-Mobile customers. Just have to install the app. I've had the app myself since this video and never paid. It's been blocking spam calls almost daily. I only pay $20 per month for talk and text only plan (no data since I use wifi only, it's a plan you have to talk to them to get but it's not pre-paid).
@@dpirate I was Sprint up until last month. I walked into the store to look at the new S21 Ultra. The girl said " let me update your sd card to T mobile to improve your coverage". After the card was installed, I lost my "Sprint" Caller Id app and was replaced with Scam shield. I had a 30 day Trial ( maybe it was for premium?) And now thst it's over 30 days, it's asking me for $4.00 to upgrade.
I know they merged but if you're still technically a Sprint customer you'll use the Sprint Call Screener app and not the T-Mobile one. And yeah they is like a "premium" version of the app you have to pay for. But I don't recommend it, it's not needed since the free version blocks all or most spam calls and provides a list of the blocked calls. It sounds like she was trying to get a upsell out of you by misleading you (leaving out the fact there's a free version that works well). The "premium" version just gives you an update to add a call to the block list... we can also do this for free using the normal block option on our phone. I'm happy with the free version! I got like 10 spam calls a day. Now I get zero spam likely calls.

Thanks!, finally someone with useful info!
Thank you for the feedback!
Great video downloading pirate good to know, I have scam shield by t-mobile on my phone, as always you're the best
Thank you for the feedback Sister! It is a great app to have now these spam calls are increasing.
I have this and it does a great job of blocking spam calls.
Thank you for the update!

Thanks, hopefully, it works. Literally got like 3 scam likely calls back to back right before this video

It'll notify you when they do block phone numbers so you should be OK.

Yo DP, what is a good way to clean your fire stick besides factory reset and starting over?
I have a video on an app that'll help a little. Here's the link to it ua-cam.com/video/WSZdthkH_7E/v-deo.html But I haven't found an app that'll simply clean our Fire devices since Clean Master though unfortunately.
Off topic. Sorry DP but Mobdro is maddening!!! Somebody needs to write a live TV app that's not constantly freezing or buffering.

Well, what about it working for the Sprint customers. I have it on my phone, and it does not work at all.
For Spirit customers it's the Sprint Call Screener app last I checked.
Can all 888 numbers be blocked?
I don't believe so. If we pay for the "premium" option the most we can do is add individual phone numbers to a block list. But this "premium" option is useless since we can do this in general using the phone's build in block option.
@@dpirate thanks for responding.
Thank you so much for this video
My pleasure, thank you for taking the time to comment!

No issues with cinema tv really. I have your file linked profile but are you referring to tea tv or typhoon with the older version?
Oh may bad, I was referring to the older version (10.0.4) of TeaTV. I only have it on my website at this time though.
What is your site? And can I access it using downloader?
Downloadingpirate.com and yes you can.
Good information, Pirate Son.
Thank you for the suggestion Pirate Mom 😍
Thank you dude, it helped.
My pleasure, thank you for sharing your feedback!
Do you still have a file linked
Yes I do, code is 67724750 with no password needed. But I move most of the apps to my website, downloadingpirate.com. We can use the Downloader app to access the website on Fire TV devices.
Is the proxy number free?
Yes it is but we have to go to a store or call to get it.
Hello, is this app has caller id?
Yes, once you open the app there's a option to see the full list of the blocked numbers if needed. But when every it blocks a number it'll show you a notification with the number it blocked at the time of the call.
@@dpirate thank you :)
Thanks for your information bro
My pleasure!
Totally off topic, is anyone having trouble with cinema? Mine is forever loading

In case you haven't checked yet, I noticed it was back working this morning. You may have to login back in to see the changes.
thanks for the lo down looks like a good app.
My pleasure, thank you for commenting!

No problem, happy you this video! This app saved me a lot from nonstop spam call after I changed my number.
Fun Fact: Most Fun facts aren’t actually fun including this one.
Someone's recycling comments huh 😅
