+# block-spam-calls
+
+Uses Twilio Add-ons to block unwanted calls by checking the spam ratings of incoming phone numbers.
+
+## Pre-requisites
+
+- A Twilio account - [sign up here](https://www.twilio.com/try-twilio)
+- A Twilio phone number
+- Spam filtering Add-ons (see below)
+
+### Install Add-Ons
+
+The following guide will help you to [install Add-ons](https://www.twilio.com/docs/add-ons/install). You can access the Add-ons in the Twilio console [here](https://www.twilio.com/console/add-ons). The Spam Filtering Add-ons that are used on this application are:
+
+- [Marchex Clean Call](https://www.twilio.com/console/add-ons/XBac2c99d9c684a765ced0b18cf0e5e1c7)
+- [Nomorobo Spam Score](https://www.twilio.com/console/add-ons/XB06d5274893cc9af4198667d2f7d74d09)
+
+Once you've selected the Add-on, just click on `Install` button. Then, you will see a pop-up window where you should read and agree the terms, then, click the button `Agree & Install`. For this application, you just need to handle the incoming voice calls, so make sure the `Incoming Voice Call` box for `Use In` is checked and click `Save`.
