Duri picks up the unknown numbers
Her carrier forwards calls from numbers she doesn't know to Duri. Family and friends call the same number they always have.
Scam call protection for your parents
The scam call never reaches Mom.
Duri answers calls from numbers she doesn't know. It asks who's calling and why, and only rings through the ones that matter. If a scammer still gets through, Duri warns her mid-call and alerts you.

How it works
Her phone, with someone answering first.
She sees who's calling, and why
Duri asks the caller's name and reason, then shows her the answer in large type with a clear recommendation: pick up, or let it leave a message.
You hear about it when it matters
When a caller asks for a code, a payment or her Medicare number, Duri warns her during the call and alerts you, so you can step in.

Does she have to change her phone number?
No. She keeps her number and her phone. Her carrier forwards calls from unknown numbers to Duri, and the people she knows still reach her directly.
What if an important call comes in?
Duri asks who's calling and why, and recommends picking up when it sounds real, like her doctor or pharmacy. If she misses it, the caller can leave a message.
Is Duri listening to all her calls?
No. Duri only handles the calls it answers. Callers hear that the call may be recorded, and you choose how long anything is kept.
Can Duri be wrong?
Yes. Duri recommends, and she decides. It explains its reasons in plain words, and family can help.
Which phones and carriers work?
