Blocker prefix: an innovative and effective application
Blocker prefix stands out for its ability to automatically block calls from numbers associated with canvassing companies. It goes further than similar apps by even preventing the ringtone from ringing for these suspicious calls. “My app doesn't just report unwanted calls; it blocks them and does not trigger the ringtone,” explains Ryan, quoted by Paris-Normandie. Users can also add their own numbers to the blocked calls list, providing personalized control.
A surprising reconversion from a butcher to a coder
The idea of creating this application was born during a discussion between colleagues, also exasperated by canvassing. A butcher since he was 15, Ryan learned coding in Java to develop your application. “A language remains a language. This can be learned,” he explains. He even created his own business, AWERTYSto formalize its future projects, in particular a fraudulent SMS blocker and a video game inspired by Dungeons and Dragons.
Users already won over
The application quickly attracted many users in Rouen and throughout France, garnering a rating of 4.8 out of 5. A user comments: “Finally an application that blocks by prefix! Unwanted calls have multiplied, but with this app, it's a done deal. Well done and thank you! »
A tool adapted to French specificities
“Blocker prefix” exploits the particularity of French prefixes assigned to cold calling companies, effectively blocking suspicious calls. However, Ryan acknowledges that some companies are now using numbers starting with 06 and 07 to get around this barrier. But he remains determined and continues to innovate.
Ambitions beyond butchery
For the moment, butchery remains his “primary passion”, but Ryan has not ruled out pursuing tech if he finds an opportunity. With more than 10000 downloads in just a few weeks, this young butcher-developer perfectly embodies slashing, the tendency to combine several professions.
