Do Sound Dampening Sheets Actually Help Reduce Room Echo?

I’ve been trying to improve the acoustics in a small workspace where I record audio and take online calls. Someone suggested installing sound dampening sheets on the walls to reduce echo and improve sound clarity.

From what I understand, they’re designed to absorb sound waves rather than completely block noise, which sounds useful for rooms with lots of hard surfaces.

Has anyone here used sound dampening sheets in a home studio, office, or gaming room? I’d be interested to hear whether they actually make a noticeable difference in sound quality.
