Boontel answers unfamiliar callers first, asks who they are and why they are calling, and flags pressure tactics while the call is happening. Nobody has to learn a new number or change how they make calls.
Creating an account is free and takes about a minute. You choose a plan later, in the iPhone app, where Apple shows the price before anything is charged.
The setup is the same either way. What differs is who holds the account and who gets the alerts.
You create and hold the account, you help with the one-time setup, and you can be invited as their caregiver so you see alerts when a call looks wrong. They keep using their own phone exactly as they do today.
Same protection, no caregiver required. Unfamiliar callers are screened before your phone rings, and you get risk context during the call instead of having to judge a stranger on the spot.
Boontel protects supported inbound calls. It does not replace your cellular service or support emergency calling to 911 or 988.
During setup, Boontel assigns a nearby Guardian number. Optional call forwarding sends incoming calls from your existing carrier number through Guardian protection before they reach you.
Forwarding is optional. Carrier support and codes vary, so confirm the instructions with your carrier. Keep your OFF code available.
Friends, family, and businesses keep calling the number they already have.
Supported incoming calls pass through screening and protection.
You receive the call with useful context and supported risk guidance.
Nothing changes for outgoing calls or texts. Continue using your carrier and the iPhone Phone and Messages apps.
Boontel focuses on the moments when a small piece of context can prevent a costly mistake.
Callers to your Guardian number—or your existing number when forwarding is enabled—can be asked who they are and why they are calling.
During supported calls, Boontel can flag impersonation, urgent payment requests, code harvesting, and other suspicious cues.
See call activity and available summaries according to the privacy and retention choices enabled on your account.
Unknown callers can be screened for identity and intent. You decide whether the call should continue with more information than a phone number alone can provide.
Boontel separates routine activity from calls that deserve attention, with understandable labels instead of a wall of technical data.
Caregiver access is invitation-based and controlled by the protected account. Available alerts and call details follow the account’s sharing and retention settings.
A trusted caregiver must be linked through the Boontel account. Access can be removed.
Caregivers can review supported alerts and call activity instead of relying on second-hand details.
Transcription, recording, retention, and sharing depend on explicit settings and applicable consent requirements.
One plan, covering one protected person, billed monthly or annually. There is nothing to compare and no tier to outgrow.

Boontel reduces risk; it cannot guarantee that every scam will be detected.
No. Boontel assigns a Guardian number for supported inbound calls. You can optionally forward incoming calls from your existing carrier number to it. Outbound calls and text messages continue through your carrier, and emergency calls must use your carrier service.
Not if your carrier supports call forwarding. The Boontel app guides you through forwarding incoming calls from your existing number to your Guardian number. Carrier support and codes vary, and forwarding remains optional.
No. Recording is off by default. Transcription, recording, retention, and caregiver sharing follow the controls available in your account and applicable consent requirements.
No safety tool can catch every scam. Boontel looks for common risk patterns and provides context to help you make a safer decision.
