Mr. Number Lookup & Call Block for Negative User Reviews
✓ Doesn’t do anythingI’ve paid for this app and it’s simply not working at all. I’ve switched on the three filtering options in the iPhone settings and yet nothing is being filtered. I don’t get it..Version: 5.21
✓ 🏦👎🏿I’ve had this app for a few years and it has been great. I don’t use it all the time but when I get some random number I like to see who and where it’s come from. I recently noticed that the function to see who has called and where from has become a pay feature for the app as well as reading other people comments on a particular number. I think it’s a shame that the app owner decided to get greedy and charge for that. The whole point of this app for me was to see the names and where these numbers were from. I can block numbers with my phone I don’t need an app for that. I would like to keep and continue to use this app but feel like being charged for a basic function (the main function) is a bit of a ripoff, especially after using it for so many years without being charged..Version: 4.9
✓ Blocked and still getting callsI have blocked a scam number and multiple scan numbers, added to app and still get calls with the same prefix from the same scammer through! What’s the use of the app?.Version: 3.1
✓ Doesn't work in AustraliaThe app will not work in Australia as it needs you to have a US number as part of setup , why is this in the Aus App Store , don't waste time.Version: 1.0
✓ This app is us. I am getting more spam phone calls now than when I setup the appDo not buy this app it is a wast of money, it will not stop spam phone calls. Since I set up the app all I get is fraudulent and spam calls every day. It is U/S.Version: 5.20
✓ Mr Number doesn’t do enough to pay for itI’ve used Mr Number for several years when it was free & it was okay. Since “upgrading” to “Premium” for $2.99 a month, there is negligible improvement. The User still has to do all the work of reporting bogus, scam or telemarketing calls in order to build Mr Number’s database of bad actors. That might be acceptable if Mr Number displayed the information in their database on your phone at the time the call came in, but it doesn’t. You have to copy the number from your “received” list, go into the app, and search for it. Then it will show what, if anything, is in their database. Sure, after a search you can block the number, but you can do that on your phone software. Mr Number does nothing to identify “Robocallers” spoofing the Caller ID. Even at just $2.99 a month, it’s not worth it. I’ll be cancelling because Mr Number does not allow going from “Premium” back to free, even though there is little difference..Version: 4.11
✓ Rate .Not as good as it was before the an update . Doesn’t give any warnings anymore.Version: 5.4
✓ GarbageI can block complete numbers on my iPhone just as this app does. I need to block Area codes. Spammers are Spoofing the phone numbers and using local numbers..Version: 5.6
✓ Installed, instantly removedI like a free trial but I can’t afford what they’re asking. All I’d like is a peaceful life and this app with its reviews was promising this, a life free of nuisance calls, so I know I can answer my phone happily. So I opened the app and the opening screen is about subscribing, straight off, after a 7-day free trial. That’s possibly not long enough for someone to gauge, even when you do get multiple calls a day from unrecognised numbers. A weekly fee wasn’t for me, sorry..Version: 5.20
✓ Scam0 stars if possible terrible scam.Version: 5.20
✓ Bait you in and Hit you up for subscription.Was free when I got it and worked ok but not that good so I left it then they switched to a subscription. What a joke!!! Don’t waste your money!!!!.Version: 5.14
✓ UselessOk, when I first started using this app, it used to give names for numbers calling if they were available. If I didn’t recognize the name I wouldn’t answer. Then, they stopped showing names and required premium subscription to get names. After a while I decided to subscribe. During the trial, I realized that the information was useless because those names were for the true number owner but the scammers were faking the caller id, so really the info they were giving was useless. Well, I already don’t answer calls from numbers that are not in my contacts, and my greeting says I won’t answer unknown numbers, and I won’t return calls unless they leave a message. If the call is legit, the caller should leave a message so I’ll call them back. So, what do I need this app for at all. I just ignore numbers that I don’t know. If the caller leaves a message and it is someone I want to talk to, I’ll call them back. So simple, I don’t need an app at all!.Version: 4.6
✓ HuhNo working.... Still unknown numbers calling.Version: 5.6
✓ Doesn’t workIt’s not blocking the calls at all lol.Version: 5.24
✓ Totally useless!Recently the +244 78** calls emerged and this app has NO USE whatsoever at all - not promoting anything is not the worst, the worst is that you cannot even manually input an international number in the block list..Version: 5.1
✓ Long time userI’ve been disappointed for awhile now. I use to be able to place almost all types of phone numbers that I didn’t recognize and come back with some identifiable information. The past few months anytime I put in some numbers I have received next to nothing of some information in about 90% of of numbers entered to this app. I basically stopped using. Although today I was lucky and had an unknown number call me twice in the past 2 days. Lo and behold this time the app gave me information. I may end up deleting this app and stop telling all my friends and family to not even bother. This is why I only gave 3 stars. I am hoping that the quality of this app may improve 🤞🏼.Version: 4.6
✓ Does not workI paid the anual membership and I still getting calls or message, Must keep the app running otherwise won’t work Drying your battery.Version: 5.18
✓ We have to pay to use now?It’s been free forever but now I have to pay to use it. It doesn’t always work anyways so now it’s just like wow never mind lol..Version: 5.7
✓ App doesn’t workI would like a refund.Version: 5.14
✓ Waste of money and timeYou can’t sell an app that doesn’t do what it was intended to do… I get more spoof calls and fraud calls then I ever have before and I believed this app could prevent or make things easier but I was wrong. DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY! Feeling like they are very dishonest about what the company implies and of course they flag the numbers that are actually good and let the dangerous stuff through. Really disappointed..Version: 5.22
✓ Works sometimesSpoofing protection not available in Australia.Version: 5.27
✓ Good but cumbersomeMr. Number works satisfactorily for what it is meant to do. It generally can ID phone numbers, but also allows users to edit ID information. I don’t know how that does or doesn’t effect accuracy. It could be used to remove ID from numbers by the number owner. It could also be used to assign a false name to a number by the number owner. What I really can’t understand is why Mr. Number doesn’t integrate into the iPhone calls. Anytime I get a phone call from an unknown number I have to type the number in to Mr. Number to get an ID (or be told there is no ID). It is extremely cumbersome to have to do that in the moment. I wind up missing those calls because I have to type the number in to the app, which takes time. This seems like something that could be fixed with relative ease so I’m not sure why it has never been addressed..Version: 5.18
✓ Complete Gank MoveSo all the years people supported this app, told everyone about it, kept this app alive and going , Now the loyal customers have to actually pay for it? Wow who needs enemies with friends like this? This app is a complete nightmare now. It does not even have a purpose. Initially this app was allowing you to keep track of numbers that contacted you , it allowed you to see when the number called you last, the amount of times it called, actual name of the persons whose the phone is in, where the phone was coming from like location of the number. This service was for everyone number that called you. Kept track of all incoming and outgoing calls from your device. You would be allowed to personalize your contact number as well as others who you were familiar with for personal reasons, references, etc. This app does nothing at all. I doesn’t even have professional numbers listed for businesses, schools , offices , anything at all. So basically this is a app that is for a 3 year old to input a number and the screen will allow you to see it again. Oh yeah don’t forget to pay for that service. I don’t know why all the years this was available for free now they want to charge the loyal customers and do absolutely nothing for them. This is such a horrible situation. No more Mr Numbers.. pay $80 for a lifetime of ,,,,🙄,,, preschool time saver. Thank you ..Version: 5.23
✓ CrapWon’t work tried several different known numbers with no results.Version: 5.10
✓ What happened???I’ve been a subscriber for quite some time now. I loved the old app and used the widget constantly. Now it’s gone and the app is basically a confusing number pad. I’m almost afraid to do anything inside of the app because it feels like I’m going to make a phone call. Instead of telemarketers calling me, I’d be calling them. I know apps have to evolve over time and continue to grow, but it feels like things are moving backwards with this update, not forwards. There’s even a misspelling in the description under Settings/Allow Contacts. It also seems like my spam calls have increased since the update, even though it shows as enabled. It does catch some things, but doesn’t work as efficiently as before. For the first time in a long time I’ve been looking for an alternative. Please fix this mess as soon as possible..Version: 5.2
✓ 🙄Heads up-no prefix/areacode block.Version: 5.4
✓ Still Get Spam and RobocallsI’ve had this app for going on 3 months now in order to give it a chance. Unfortunately, I’m unhappy with the results and will not recommend to my friends. I continue to receive Spam, Robocalls, unknown calls from other countries, etc on a regular basis. Because I don’t answer from numbers I do not know, the mystery callers don’t leave a message, or, if they do, it’s a telemarking Robocalls. I thought this app was designed to stop these calls. It’s really annoying! I don’t go to web sights and randomly enter my contact info so I’m baffled as to why I get these calls. I know it’s because companies sell your info, of which I wish was illegal and investigated and prosecuted much more often. Instead, when I get these calls, I’m still left with going into my recent call history on my iPhone and blocking them one by one. I make sure to update the database daily because every time I close the app, I get a notice the next day that I somehow forced the app closed and again need to update. Why? I will not choose to try the premium version, even for free for 7 days, because the standard free version is not adequate..Version: 4.10
✓ Me. NumberThe price for the app is great, however their is nearly no value to the app. It will occasionally give me the name of a blocked number. It has never informed me of any calls that it has blocked. And based on all the calls I’ve ever received from robo callers or spammers it has never blocked any. If they want to add Value to their app they need to allow the app to sink up with the numbers you’ve already blocked on your iPhone phone/contacts app. Because as it is now I have to manually type the number into the app if I can remember it. Also if I cut and paste a number from recent calls,after pasting it I have to painstakingly and consumingly delete every spaces or any other characters other than numbers for it to work. It’s just not worth your time or your money to try to have an additional app block your calls when you could simply block them from your iPhone phone/Contacts app.Version: 4.11
✓ PointlessAs this app requires the iPhone user to have a US mobile/'cell' number, it's inclusion on the Australian App Store is largely pointless and ultimately frustrating..Version: 1.0
✓ Needs some workBlocks spam calls, but it’s also silencing calls from my contacts and unrecognized numbers (not spam calls, just numbers not in my contacts)..Version: 5.6
✓ Not as good as it used to beIt used to announce my calls by showing if they were spam Now it just keeps a log of the number but doesn’t pre check it. I have to do the look up myself which I could do from my phone’s log. No idea why it stopped displaying..Version: 4.11
✓ Number look upApp found the number but could not identify any name… And all other paid Services found a name..Version: 5.21
✓ Doesn’t seem to do anythingI still get my calls from India for a tax fraud arrest warrant internet cutoff.Version: 5.23
✓ Looks promising, but actually useless!It doesn’t block any fake numbers, I keep getting various calls which supposed to be detected by this genius app. Unfortunately this app is a total failure to block calls!.Version: 5.22
✓ GarbageMost of the time, any information given about a caller would just be the actual phone number and now they are demanding users pay for that “service”. Don’t waste your time on this useless app. Save your money for something that’s actually worth it..Version: 5.7
✓ Used to be goodI had it for a couple of years but they wait for the app to go popular to change their business model. Now it is a pay monthly subscription. NO WAY. Could have understand a one time purchase but that simply doesn’t worth it. I am uninstalling this..Version: 5.7
✓ Bogus appNot functional at all in what it is supposed to do.Version: 5.17
✓ Used to be amazing, now not very usefulI have use this app for a very long time. In the past I found it incredibly useful as it allowed me to not only block numbers are messages from certain numbers, but also allowed me to see who was calling me from various numbers and if it was reported as spam or not. Unfortunately now they have most of the information behind a pay wall with their new premium service. I now can look up a number, but I can’t see who was actually calling me unless I want to pay extra. This app used to be amazing now it’s pretty much only useful for blocking specific numbers which I can do via my phone settings. It should also be noted that blocking a number via this app doesn’t actually prevent the number from calling you, it just auto hangs up the call for you. It would also delete text messages you’re getting. I am also incredibly disappointed in this app because they collect a ton of data and I don’t believe that they are using it in an ethical manner. Highly recommend uninstalling and deleting this app..Version: 4.7
✓ Bait and SwitchFree to start with. Now asking for you to upgrade to premium on almost daily basis to continue using. Run away..Version: 5.7
✓ Don’t waste your time! 2 years and never worked well. Missed most calls.I’ve had the app installed for a couple years. It never worked well. Most unidentified calls that came through would not get flagged by Mr Number. I would have to manually paste the caller’s number into the Mr Number app to find out details. The concept of the app is great and should be super simple to achieve, but it never did. Today when I opened the Mr Number app, I was greeted with a pay screen. The only way to use the newly update Mr Number app is to pay them a monthly fee or yearly fee. I have no idea who would pay for something that doesn’t even work. Now I’ll just go back to pasting the unidentified callers into Google to get info on the number (which is the same thing I was doing with the app anyway). The new monthly free requirement from Mr Number finally pushed me to delete this non-working app. I should have deleted it long ago. Don’t waste your time!.Version: 5.1
✓ Totally unusable with new updateAs soon as I open the app it loops a page that says to subscribe. As soon as the page loads, it quickly reloads over and over and over. Can’t tap buttons or anything. Totally unusable at the moment..Version: 5.1
✓ The does not workThis app sucks. Does not work on Iphone’s..Version: 5.2
✓ Useless appDid not block any spam callers. Tried looking up at least 50 numbers and not one of them was in their database. Now they position themselves as a premium only service/app. What a joke. Don’t waste your time or money on this garbage..Version: 5.28
✓ Not impressed - doesn’t work!Honestly, after paying for a full YEAR subscription, I would expect RESULTS!! So far, NONE of the dozen or so phone numbers I’ve entered (including my own) have shown ANY results... only says it can’t identify number. What did I pay for?? ... and the developer CLEARLY doesn’t care, or they would respond to some of these negative comments, or FIX things!.Version: 5.14
✓ Used to be good but not anymoreUsed to be the best app and I used to tell about that app to all my friends who gets this doggy phone calls. Now they ask you to pay £2.something a month... NOOO it’s not worth it as app sometimes doesn’t work perfect.. sometimes you have to go back to setting and turn it on.. There is more apps in. AppStore and they are free. Goodbye Mr Number 👋🏻.Version: 5.10
✓ PaulI just need an app that will block any international calls because of the call back and get charged scam I have pocket dialed these these numbers more than once as you don’t wven realise they are on your call list This app does not appear to have this functionality even though it is hinted at on the App Store Will be cancelling the trial as it of little use Thanks.Version: 5.9
✓ Over does itIt’s ok but it’s blocking numbers I do want to get calls from ? I think it’s over doing it I think it’s blocking any number that does not have a contact against it which is a bit too overkill the doctors and the hospital were blocked and my landlords ?.Version: 5.12
✓ Doesn’t always workDoesn’t always work and yet it’s no longer free.Version: 5.10
✓ Good I suppose,This is a good app but I want to be able to block certain country codes..Version: 3.1
✓ IF YOU WANT MORE SPAM, THIS IS THE APP FOR YOUI used Mr Number for almost a year, but after a few months, I started seeing SPAM calls increase. Same thing with Hiya, which owns this app as well. At first I brushed it off as coincidences. Almost all of the increases were from Chinese speaking callers/bots/recordings. The same with another call-blocking app, TrueCaller. Originally, I had all 3 installed and would switch them on and off to see which worked best, at first. Then it became about which was the worst. THEY WERE ALL BAD. One day, I uninstalled all 3 apps and guess what? Almost all the SPAM calls stopped. Not all, but I’d say 85-90% of them. It wouldn’t surprise me if one day we found out that they were actually selling the membership lists to specific companies which they’d let through knowing they were spam. My suggestion is to uninstall all SPAM blocker apps, particularly foreign ones. I believe they are selling all our private information & data from what kinds of devices we use to who is more susceptible to being SCAMMED, not just SPAMMED..Version: 4.10
✓ Used to be completely freeJust like the other recent reviews say, this app has been free for years and had their database grow BECAUSE of people reporting numbers. Now that they have a huge database and are popular they’re charging monthly all of a sudden. I would have faithfully stuck with it for who knows how many more years had it not been for this intentional strategy of getting people’s help with building the database for free, then trying to get paid for it later. The app itself was really good and it worked for me in the UK. People have said it before around last year; I would pay for this app if it was a small one time purchase for the whole app or just some separate premium features as a one time purchase. No way monthly works when there’s free alternatives out there not doing this. They also now suggest using their other “free” app Hiya, which also has a premium subscription and the free features are not at all the way this one’s was. All in all they’re trying really hard to profit in the worst possible way. I’m just really disappointed..Version: 5.7
✓ UselessDoes not block unknown or anonymous numbers..Version: 1.0
✓ BadI keep getting loads of different foreign numbers calling me, blocking doesn’t work because a different number will just call me and I downloaded and enabled this and I’m still getting foreign calls even though I changed the settings to block on this app. It doesn’t work.Version: 4.5
✓ How is it 4.5/5??? this app sucksGarbage don’t waste ur time downloading it.Version: 5.6
✓ Keeps resetting from block to warn meUpdate: still not fixed keeps changing from block to warn me. Also has stopped identifying spam/spoof calls when the phone rings I upgraded to the premium package and the app is great for doing searches against numbers to see if the call I let go to VM is a scam/spoof etc my only frustration with the app is you set under the protect option to block all scam/spoof calls and it updates but the next time I go back into the protect option it has reverted to warn me, which isn’t what I want it to do. If you can fix this it would really help. Further update.. the above still happens and it’s now being compounded by calls getting thru with no warnings that it’s spam. When I look the number up that called against the data base 45 other people have logged it as spam yet no warnings- I’m close to calling it quits, canceling the premium and moving to another option.Version: 4.8
✓ I’m getting more calls. I don’t know what’s going onSo I’ve had this for about a week now... and it’s not getting better it’s getting worse. I know sometimes the holiday season can explode with evil and ridiculous spam) so I’m gonna give it a little bit more time but I wanted to bring the rating down so the developers can take a look. I am using it correctly it is updated, there’s just something going on when it comes to how many spam calls I’m getting especially for what I’m paying. I want to give you guys a chance to make it right. Thank you so much. Dec - 14th) 2020 So I’ve only had this for a day now but if you are like me you’ve been through a lot of different apps. I know people get angry when something isn’t free. But I know my services aren’t free and that’s how you survive and pay your bills. So this app full disclosure is four dollars a month. And they offer packages if you want to pay for a year upfront or a lifetime. I’m going to go on a monthly basis and see how it goes. I figure if they can keep the spam calls away in the things that are annoying in my life when I’m all in really under a lot of pressure that’s worth A cup of Starbucks coffee every month. Which is really what this equates to. So I’ll be back for an update in a week or so ) and will continue to send fair reviews based on my experiences. If these guys can give me peace of mind I’m happy to pay them..Version: 5.16
✓ Doesn’t work…Fails to stop 0843 numbers which are the bane of my life in the UK. I read a cheery review someplace that said it could stop those numbers. The reality is that it stopped absolutely NONE of them during my seven-day trail. I get at least one phishing scam call per day from an 0843 number. This app didn’t work and let all 0843 numbers straight through to me. Perhaps try another app..Version: 5.21
✓ Pointless downloadTotally useless. I have all my settings set to block, and I’m still getting 5+ spam phone calls a day coming through. Don’t bother with this app..Version: 4.8
✓ So far no benefit to being a paying customer.Still not worth paying for and I will not be renewing my paid subscription. I don’t need a service that allows all MARKED as spam numbers to call my phone. Actually I get more spam calls now than I did before subscribing to this so called service. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS APP! DO NOT PAY FOR THIS, WASTE OF MONEY! Unless something happens to make this app actually block numbers that have been marked MANY times as Spam I will not be renewing my paid subscription. Also I’ll note that I do have all my settings set to block and these spam callers still get through to call me. That is unacceptable, I can somewhat understand a new spam number getting through but not a number that has many people already marked it as spam. I really had high hopes for this app because I am beyond tired of all the telemarketers but so far this app does not do its part to justify paying for it. So far all I can see it does is sometimes it will mark a number as spam while letting it ring my phone. That alone is not worth paying for..Version: 4.10
✓ Doesn’t do anythingI have really tried with this app; updated the database frequently; used it to search for numbers; blocked numbers in it but all to no avail. Today I answered a cold call and at the end of the call tried to use the app to check the number and received no response; nothing; no success in trying to block it. Being uninstalled..Version: 5.6
✓ Can’t block wildcard numbersCan only block individual numbers (exactly the same as iOS built in feature).Version: 2.5
✓ Not suitable for Canadian UsersI tried 13 people from my contacts and not a single one showed up 💀.Version: 5.30
✓ FrustratedThe app started out good but now I’m getting 6-8 spam/fraud calls still getting thru each day! There’s no way to refresh the app, which is an issue I’m dealing with now. I’ve set up for automatic updates and noticed it’s definitely not updating! Blocked 3 numbers yet the numbers I blocked are still getting thru! Ended up closing out of the app and reopened it hoping that would force it to update. Have had the paid subscription for several years now. It worked great but there’s just way to many spam/fraud calls getting thru. Definitely doesn’t work like it once did. Unless these glitches are fixed, this will most likely be my last paid subscription. Need an app that actually works. Another issue is it allows “government” calls. Unfortunately these spammers are using spoofed government numbers which makes it very frustrating..Version: 5.18
✓ PointlessApp does nothing. Waste of cash. Auto renew in Feb so I have until then to cancel. Would be nice if it was even intuitive to cancel but it looks like I have to put more time in to even do that..Version: 5.20
✓ How ?Instructions not very clear Features not explained Had to go to internet for 3rd party info Still not entirely sure what I’m paying for It’s well regarded by reviewers........Version: 5.12
✓ Doesn’t work in Montreal, CanadaIt just doesn’t work.Version: 5.6
✓ Call blockGot minimized robocall. This used to be a free apps now they want to make money???.Version: 5.1
✓ Never downloadIt creates a namecard in your contacts that contains tons of numbers. This can crash your iphone contacts app. If you are using icloud, it crashes your Mac contacts app as well.Version: 1.0
✓ Did not workNe marche pas ne bloque rien.Version: 5.6
✓ Waste of timeThis app sends a code to your mobile to login for the first time, but it never sends one. Don’t bother with this app..Version: 2.5
✓ Used to be great, but soon spoilt itself.Used to be the app I recommended to all iOS owners, but about a week ago I started noticing I was getting my spam calls again, where previously it had reduced the calls I had received to zero. Then yesterday an update is announced the it is a premium only app... right ok, maybe I would of been tempted if if I hadn’t received 10 spam calls last week while your app was still in its previous release! Do you think I am likely to pay these guys on the premise that it may work?? Sorry boy’s you’ve messed in the nest... confidence has gone in the app, I suggest others find developers who are more honest with their users or at least offer a “dumbed down” version!.Version: 5.4
✓ My first 1 star review got deleted... you can’t hide frustrationI have literally been looking for an alternative for this but I absolutely refuse to use this app again. Converting this app to paid in the middle of a pandemic when people can’t afford premium, great job. Was once a great app, too bad it’s paid now..Version: 5.9
✓ Could be betterIt’s helped a bit ...Version: 5.25
✓ GarbageCrap.Version: 5.17
✓ How do I trace back no caller Id?Anyone know how?.Version: 5.18
✓ RegionI can’t block a region which is why paid for the app.Version: 5.9
✓ What am I paying for?!?Sure, I can copy in a number and look it up, but why does the app keep letting through all the calls? I’ve set it to block fraud and nuisance calls. I’ve turned on neighbor scam protection. But all the calls come through. I’m manually going to the app to block each call, and what’s the point of that? I’ve got a Telemarketer contact that I can add phone numbers to so that they’ll be blocked, and that doesn’t cost me anything! All the app seems to do is let me look up numbers to see if anyone else has reported it - and a lot of the time there’s still no name with it, but many many reports that the number is fake or spam. Why doesn’t the app start blocking the numbers that get reported?!?! What am I paying for?!?!?.Version: 4.10
✓ PaywallThe first thing it asks you to do is subscribe, entire app is locked behind a paywall If you don’t want to pay, don’t download.Version: 5.23
✓ Waste of timeDoes not work in Aust. Get your act together fixing this or take it off Australian iTunes..Version: 1.0
✓ Not too bad.It’s not too bad. I guess the more people that use it the better it will be..Version: 5.5
✓ Surprise — it suddenly went from free to very expensiveI’d consider a nominal fee but this is going to upset a lot of people. It was completely free. Now it’s a monthly recurring fee— like a mortgage. The people who didn’t update can still use it for free. Everyone else: nope.Version: 5.8
✓ Hate Update!!!Used to be useful for knowing if someone was using a text app or real mobile. Now it doesn’t so I’ll be deleting it if by next update that’s not resolved bc it now useless and a waste of my phones memory.Version: 5.1
✓ It doesn’t filter anythingActually unknown numbers send me messages and this app doesn’t tell me anything.Version: 5.29
✓ Disappointed over timeWhen I first started using this app I was hooked! Loved it. However in recent updates, I’ve grown to dislike it. I keep hoping it’ll get better. But not so much. I get, on average 10 spam calls a day. And even though I have all blocking on, nothing gets blocked. I still have to go through and individually manually block each call every single day. Big deal, it tells you “potential spam” and so on, but anymore, I already know the spam calls and just don’t answer. I thought for sure this would help eliminate me having to go in and block. Also, one of the updates took away number look up. You used to be able to plug in a number and it would tell you who it was, that no longer works either. So, all in all, as it updates and they take away key features on the free version, it’s not at all what it’s cracked up to be..Version: 4.8
✓ Deleted the appUseless after the update. The app keep rolling from the top to the bottom of my screen and now you want a subscription fee too?! I’ve downloaded another free to use app that does exactly the same as the old version of this app did..Version: 5.0
✓ Says free but isn’t; (liars = boo)I have no respect for any company which wastes my time, lying to entice people to download their app. I would never start a business (nor any) relationship when they’re first move is deception, no matter the value of their product (...and I will never get far enough to discover the value of their app anyway, will always remove their product before trying it) simply on principle..Version: 5.14
✓ Doesn’t work on Iphone 14Worked momentarily. Once paid the subscription it stopped working. Re-installed etc (twice) as recommended on all the forums. It worked for one incoming phone call then stopped working again..Version: 5.27
✓ Hasn’t blocked or flagged a single callHasn’t blocked or flagged a single call since I’ve had the app. Most features not available in my region (BC).Version: 5.6
✓ Doesn’t workDoesn’t work here in Canada, Montreal.Version: 4.6
✓ Waste of moneyWaste of money.Version: 5.11
✓ Did not work on all numbersThis app fails to stop any calls prefixed by (02) (Sydney) in Australia..Version: 4.8
✓ This appCalls are still getting thru I’m not happy.Version: 4.11
✓ Now requires paid subscriptionI’ve used this app for years. It was good for the most part even though some calls still came through but definitely not worth paying for. Deleted. So disappointing.Version: 5.14
✓ PoorThis app suspects genuine callers as spam and flags them, yet it lets through 0843 numbers until I manually block them myself. If I’ve had to manually block them for this app to then block them, where’s the use in this app?.Version: 5.20
✓ Big flaw:Filter 2 won't work on iOS10.3.3Beware. If you have iOS 10.3.3 or older (iPhone 5c) it only half works or not at all. Hasn't filtered a wave of spam calls from a Texas area code this week. When first installed, both filter 1&2 can be enabled but over time it seems to 'forget' and filter 2 untoggles itself when you aren't looking. Trying to re toggle it on makes the phone/app think for a bit and gives an error message about the "data being invalid" and to seek support from the developers. Ok well mr number/hiya programs: please fix? Until then, app is nigh on useless..Version: 4.11
✓ So Far, Not Effective At AllI have had this app for two days now and so far I find no use for it. You would think that calls from “Unknown” or “No Named Caller” or “No Caller ID” would be a no-brainer to add to the list of “blocked” calls, but it can’t. I don’t even want my phone to ring if the call is not associated with a number! So, in two days I have received 5 unwanted spam calls from who knows who and this app did nothing to stop them - and 3 of the 5 calls were “Unknown Caller”. Excuse me, it did allow me to add the number to the list of “blocked” callers. Great! Since these calls come from a different call number each time, saving the number does little good. I’m going to give this app a full week. If it doesn’t start actually blocking calls, like it claimed it will do, I’ll update this review and delete the app. The clock is ticking..Version: 4.4
✓ YOU make this work for THEM and now they want to charge YOU!I’ve had this app for quite a while. It was apparent from the very beginning that the only way that it worked was for the people using the app to report numbers that are telemarketers, fraudsters, and the like. So basically, unless you report that a number is of that nature then they would have no idea of what numbers should be blocked. There is no work done by the developer to create a database. In fact, when you update the supposed database, it lists that you are “protected” from X number of annoyance numbers, yet that sum changes very little, if any. It only stands to reason that if people are reporting new numbers daily, that the listed number of blocked calls should increase exponentially. Understand that only numbers you have blocked don’t come through, or else they ring briefly and are sent to voicemail. So again, unless someone does the work for them, the app is useless and lets calls through. It is absurd that it is based on you, the consumer, making this app work and now they want to charge a monthly or yearly fee for you to help them make money off of others. I am deleting this app immediately. Let them find another sucker to be their mule - or jackass. BTW - Many service providers offer this same service for free..Version: 5.1
✓ OKIt’s a start, but doesn’t do what I need. You can’t import a list of numbers you want to block, and you can’t block a class of numbers, like 0843 and 0845 in the UK..Version: 5.17
✓ Scammers!Don’t install!! I installed this app to do a reverse lookup on a number that called me. It wasn’t very helpful with that, as it came back with someone’s name instead of a company. But since there was a 7-day free trial, I thought I would keep it for a week and then unsubscribe before it renewed if I didn’t find value in it. When setting it up, I saw that it offered an “anti-spoofing” service to warn you of incoming calls from numbers that had the same first 6 numbers of your own cell number...because those are likely spoofers I guess. I thought to myself “hmmm...I used to get calls from numbers like that but I haven’t for awhile so I won’t turn on that feature.” Well wouldn’t you know it...the day before my free trial ends, I get 6 (SIX!) calls from numbers that had the first 6 numbers as mine. I called one of the numbers back and it was this lady with kids in the background saying she didn’t call me. I almost let the subscription renew because at first I thought “Gee, I really need to keep that Mr. Number app and turn that anti-spoofing feature on!” But I’m on to you, Mr. Number!! I don’t know how you generate calls from random phone numbers that match the first part of mine, but I know you are doing it to trick people into letting the subscription auto-renew..Version: 5.12
✓ No longer works on my old phoneI have an iPhone 4 (OS v7.1.2), and am still satisfied, it serves my needs. But Mr Number no longer does. First, earlier in 2017 the did away with their PC app's ability to look up complaints on a submitted number -- now it only takes reports. This week, the phone app is telling me that it can look up a number (any number) and that I should check my Internet connection. (My connection is fine.) I'm surprised to see my MrNumber version is shown as 1.0. I've checked for upgrades but none is available. I assume this is yet another app that has made itself incompatible with my old OS. As for MrNumber customer service, forget about it; I've written them about both these problems, no reply. 1 star, because it still blocks numbers that I've already blacklisted, but for new callers it's become useless..Version: 2.5
✓ This app does not workDoes not work. No use.Version: 5.7
✓ Garbage100% garbage don’t even waste your time it couldn’t even tell me my own number biggest rip.Version: 5.9
✓ Now premium paid serviceIn the midst of COVID-19 the developer has decided to convert this app to a paid monthly or yearly service. It was a free app previously, but no longer. Bad timing..Version: 5.7
✓ Doesn’t workNot blocking any spam calls of mine….Version: 5.21
✓ More Spam Calls with Mr. NumberTLDR- used for a few years, started receiving -5 spam calls a day. Reviewed privacy policy and deleted it. Spam calls almost Stopped. I am installed Mr. number because like everyone else we started to have more spam calls. I did it about a year ago pretty quickly I became very thankful that I had it on my phone because the number of spam calls quickly accelerated. Getting as many as 15 in a single day. I started to wonder if Mr. number was even doing anything. I became beyond frustrated and looking for another tool. When I did I begin reading some privacy policies including Mr. numbers and slightly horrified I am mediately deleted it. Since deleting it three weeks ago I have not received more than two spam calls a day, many days days not at all. Mr. number not only did not block any spam calls but it also increased the number that I was receiving while selling my day to advertisers. DO NOT DOWNLOAD..Version: 4.11
✓ ReviewI have put numbers up and all I get is can’t find name so you don’t deliver what you say to make matters worse won’t submit this 6 nick names and all taken if you want a review be honest. You couldn’t even tell me that it was a local business number..Version: 5.18
✓ Good,but...This pretty good app, it will show you who is calling, what company etc you have a white list and block tab, but there is something missing like messages spam block etc if they gonna add it then 5 stars for this app, but for now no messages protection so 3 stars..Version: 4.8
✓ Offers nothing more than iOS block callThis blocks given numbers exactly the same as iOS does. It still lets the blocked number go to your voicemail so rather than get 10 annoying calls you get 10 voicemails (or blank voicemails). Totally pointless like iOS. If you block a number it should get blocked, not still be able to be forwarded to your voicemail..Version: 4.10
✓ Calls haven’t seemed to slow downI installed this app after I ignorantly posted my real phone number on Craig’s List and started getting robocalls Trying to sell me a new credit card and health insurance. I purchased the app about 5 months ago and I’ve received 45 calls since then. How do I know the number? Because I’ve reported and blocked all of them in this app. I’m giving this app 2 stars because it does feel empowering to be able to report these phone numbers in order to protect other people. However, in all 45 calls, the app already had them marked as spam by multiple people. So why isn’t the app preventing these calls?!?! At this point, it just seems like another task I have to stop and do during my busy day, without actually seeing any difference for my trouble..Version: 4.8
✓ It’s a hack, it’s all the garbage out in old computer terms.The app is all crapola….Version: 5.31
