Downloaded AT&T App

I downloaded an app a couple of years ago, at least, that kept your phone from ringing if the phone number was not in your contacts. But, it does show up as a missed call. This app was a feature that ATT provided. Now, I would need to remove the app but I have no idea how to find it much less remove the app.

Hi Foundjoy! Here's how to remove AT&T Call Protect from your phone.

 

You should be able to uninstall the app simply by following the recommended instructions by @sandblaster. If you need additional assistance, view the instructions provided at our Device Support Center.

 

After selecting your make and model choose App Management followed by Download Apps & Games. Also, AT&T Call Protect is being phased out, so once you remove the app from your device you may not be able to resume your subscription.

 

In its place is AT&T ActiveArmor mobile security app which will provide all the great features you enjoyed with AT&T Call Protect.

 

ActiveArmor is included with some plans, and no action is needed. To check your plan:

  1. Go to your myAT&T account overview. Sign in, if asked.
  2. Scroll to My devices and select Manage add-ons for the phone number you want to check.
  3. Look for ActiveArmor mobile security or ActiveArmor advanced mobile security (no extra charge).
    • If you see it, your plan includes the version shown.
    • If you don’t see it, your plan doesn’t include it.
  4. Uninstall the AT&T Call Protect app if it is currently downloaded to your device.

Once you accept the Terms & Conditions, you can access your call features. Just open the app and choose Calls to access your call logs and more.

 

While the basic features of AT&T ActiveArmor mobile security are free to AT&T Wireless (Postpaid) and PREPAID customers, you can upgrade to advanced mobile security features only for $3.99 month.

 

We hope this info helps. Thank you for reaching out to AT&T Community Forums.

 

Let us know if you need any other assistance.

Launch each app on your phone and when you find the one that you are looking for, go through the app delete/removal process for the phone’s OS.

The app name is probably “call protect”, try searching your phone for that name.
