Numbo: Scam Call ID & Lookup for Negative User Reviews
✓ Crash in update, always asks for paymentIt’s annoying that it always asks repayment whenever you try to report spams. Worse yet, it crashes when it tries to update the blacklist phone numbers. There’s no way to bypass the update even when you delete the app entirely and reinstall it. It goes right back to update phone numbers and crashes without any ability to bypass or exit out of updating. It’s a useless app. Delete it..Version: 4.8.11
✓ Doesn't do anythingI've paid for a premium subscription to block all calls that aren't known numbers and it hasn't fulfilled that basic function. I am still getting spam numbers constantly and consistently... I would like a refund.Version: 3.0.1
✓ Quirky appInstalled the app and tried the trial. Couldn’t even update the database. It consistently failed at 60% every time I tried. I tried entering a number manually which is a known scam and it wasn’t detected. If I can get it working I’ll update my review but this isn’t a promising start. EDIT: Gave it all another try several hours later and the database updater still fails. Waste of time. Uninstalled and subscription cancelled..Version: 4.1.4
✓ How to block unknown caller who are not in contactI can not block unknown caller . This option shows in ads but in app don’t have that option.Version: 4.2.14
✓ Waste of timeI’ve installed and uninstalled this app now 3 times, I’ve followed the instructions they sent via e-Mail to the letter and it STILL won’t update. Gets to 40% and then throws an error so, I’m deleting it for good and going back to Hiya, which is more stable and at least that you CAN update..Version: 4.2.14
✓ Total waste of money and effortThis app does nothing literally nothing, you scan the number and all you ever get is this number has not been reported yet. I feel I have been conned into buying something that is totally useless, so if your thinking of getting it don’t bother as it’s total pants.Every number I have fed into the app has come up as unreported and I literally mean every number, so my conclusion is the app offers me nothing and is certainly not worth paying for as I did, I find it odd that some of the other reviewers have rated this so high, they are clearly getting something I’ve never experienced..Version: 4.8.0
✓ Have reported issues with accessibility and still no improvement.Developer has made no attempt at resolving accessibility with voiceover and I cannot adjust my settings to block all calls. Callers are still calling me with identification as restricted numbo. I would like to not receive these calls.The app in as far as guarding against spam and scam callers is great, but its time to add a bit of voiceover usibility into this app, users pay, so, it should be 100percent useable for all subscribers .And now I can't add numbers anymore, if I go to the catagory area, there is no accessible list using voiceover..Version: 4.7.12
✓ It’s not working for me.I have downloaded this app and I still can’t see who’s number is calling me on no caller Id..Version: 2.8.1
✓ Good but can’t share the appSeemed to work fine on my phone , I paid for a yearly subscription and that’s where they get you - i shares the app with the rest of the phones on my family but I can’t use the app on wife and siblings phones without paying £9.99 each on those as well - it says “ in app purchases can’t be shared “ I paid for it through iTunes , not paying £40 a year for 4 family phones !!! Deleted app and cancelled subscription , shame really as it looked the part.Version: 4.4.1
✓ BrokenAt first this app worked well. Last 4 months it’s been broken. Error messages when loading database. Freezing when loading data base. Use to stop spam texts. No longer does that. Use to cut back on calls. Doesn’t even stop the ones close to my number! Heck one day I got a spam call from my number. I had high hopes after reading about this company but don’t waste your money. I feel like anyone that is paying for this service should be refunded until it’s fixed!!!!!!.Version: 4.1.3
✓ UselessFirst of all, this app does not block spam and robo calls. All it does is present an icon under the number that when pressed presumably should link to the app but does nothing. When you open the app to check a number, you have to wait for an excruciatingly long time as the database loads, which lists numbers that don't apply to your inquiry. I'm sure this is helpful to some based on the reviews but I just want to identify the calls I get..Version: 4.4.0
✓ TerribleI got in touch with the people who made the app what a joke the app still does NOT WORK!!!!!! I’ll be getting in touch with apple about a refund they should not be taking money from people if their app does NOT WORK obviously not suitable for the uk or America.Version: 1.1.0
✓ Close but no goodThis app doesn’t actually block calls, just name them as telemarketers. The block list says it’s 2+ million but 80% of the calls I get for healthcare scams get through.Version: 2.8.0
✓ Numbo isn’t appearing under “Call blocking & Identification”???I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app multiple times. It worked great on my old phone, but I got a new phone and it just stopped working, so I uninstalled and reinstalled twice. Both times I get stuck on the “enable span detection” instructions page of set up because it’s not there. It is not showing up. The app does not appear on the list so I cannot give it permission to block spam calls. Someone please help me fix this issue. This is not a cheap app..Version: 4.2.2
✓ I Used To Love NumboNumbo did a great job for almost a year for me. Then they changed something and updates to the phone number data became every day or even every time I open Numbo and take 15 minutes to over an hour (I give up and cancel sometimes after more than an hour). The result is I can’t add new numbers so it’s useless almost. I have just switched away from Numbo as my year subscription expires in a few days and certainly a waste to renew it..Version: 4.0.2
✓ I would not recommend as it doesn’t recognise spam and scam.I would say no worth to be a membership as I still receive unwanted calls..Version: 4.7.2
✓ Up dateIt doesn’t auto update so getting calls unless keep updating it constantly.Version: 4.0.4
✓ Database is sorely lackingI received two calls over the last two days. One was for an online pharmacy and the other was the common CRA scam (call or be arrested for tax fraud BS) anyway this app failed to identify either number even though a quick google search and both numbers are listed as scams on multiple websites. I can’t recommend this app in its current state. If it worked as advertised, I would pay the yearly subscription fee in a heartbeat..Version: 3.0.1
✓ Can’t rate this productI Have subscribed and followed the instructions but it stated it was updating but once it got to 36% it stated error and I tried 4 times to get it to work but same result each time (I have had the product on my phone for an hour looks like I need to cancel subscription).Version: 4.2.2
✓ Doesn’t connect to contacts or support an allow list.Subject says it all. If someone you trust calls you and is in one of the lists you block, you won’t be able to take their call unless you turn off blocking for the whole category. Seems like a less than ideal configuration..Version: 4.8.5
✓ Need more improvementStill unable to identify/block the calls without call I’d..Version: 3.0.1
✓ LeoThey give no warranty no matter what according to their terms and conditions . Why would pay them for subscription if there’s no warranty of their product?.Version: 2.8.1
✓ UselessI stupidly paid for a year subscription and this service is a ripoff and joke. I’m constantly getting spam, telemarking and unknown calls getting through. I have the settings set to block not identify. I even have the app turned on in the iPhone call block settings but instead of blocking it identifies. That’s not what I wanted. I can get any free service to identify calls. I wouldn’t recommend this app to my worst enemy. It won’t even let me update the database and there’s no one to contact. The only reason I gave it 1 star is because I couldn’t give it 0.👎.Version: 4.2.2
✓ UselessHas not Stopped a single scam call.Version: 3.0.1
✓ Fails to Update DatabaseThis app over the last couple months has given me a lot of issues. The other aspect is when a company links to a poorly designed website for their “app support” link. This link should take you to a place to get help. Not your generic website main page. Going to communicate with Apple support to try and get some of my money back from this scam..Version: 4.8.11
✓ Phone blockerThis app refuses to update and just sticks at 60%.Version: 4.1.4
✓ Keeps blocking good textsKeeps blocking good texts despite having none of my keywords in the message.Version: 4.7.7.
✓ Used to be a good app.... now it’s just blah!!!!I have this app for over two years or so now, initially it was very reliable but it went getting on the mode to not block any more spams calls or text, I even pay the premium yearly rate and again just for a few weeks then everything went back to normal again, now I can’t even login into my own account I deleted the app and downloaded again and still nada, nothing, zero logging for me tried to recover my password and now even that it’s helping every time I tried it say I fail and or the logging isn’t the eight one, very displeased and thinking very seriously to cancel my membership unless the app creator change my mind solving my problems with the login and the spams calls/text An Unhappy Customer.Version: 4.3.0
✓ UpdateCan’t update database at 100% Stop all the time at 39%.Version: 4.2.9
✓ The worstest app in the worldThis app doesn't give refund and it is too expensive.Version: 1.0.1
✓ New version is subscription only- uselessWhen I first downloaded it, didn't seem to block much-even when set to block. Mr. Number did instead. Got slightly better over a few months where it blocked a few. Loaded it today, has unskippable "please pay money" screen. Now can't use it without paying money. Stick to Mr. Number folks. Got a response from the dev- they claim to be better than competitors. Really? An app that hasn't been around as long as the market leader, NomoRobo? Yet it blocked little to no calls compared to Mr. Number or it's sister app NomoRobo. And those 2 are no charge to use with modest upgrade levels to get more functionality..Version: 4.0.3
✓ Does Absolutely Nothing - Even with Blacklisted NumbersI just had a call ring through that was on my Numbo blacklist. When I tried to add it, it said it was already on the list, and sure enough it was. All of the callkit extensions are enabled, including the Blacklist toggle. So, another one bites the dust. The only blocker apps that actually work, are the ones that work with conditional call forwarding. This callkit extension nonsense is exactly that: nonsense. Might be Apple's problem and not Numbo's, but either way, it's worthless. iOS 15.1.1, iPhone 13 Mini..Version: 4.7.17
✓ Poor user interfaceThe user interface for this program really needs a rewrite. I cannot paste a transcription of a scam robo voicemail because the paste function gets overlaid by the keyboard before pasting, and there’s no way to stop it. Then The clunky update is constantly updating and interfering. Yes it does work but I’d love a better experience..Version: 4.7.11
✓ UselessI am in a free trial period with the premium version of this app. This app has not identified a single number so far. It has labeled some as “suspicious” but even that has been erroneous as some of those were legitimate phone calls I was expecting. But every other number says “Not Reported Yet”. So this app is marketed as an app that will identify who is calling from a specific phone number. But it does not actually do that. It provides no useful information and it’s frustrating that you have to type in the number you want to ID anyway. It should just ID every number. If you’re looking for caller ID then keep looking cuz this isn’t it..Version: 4.8.6
✓ Does not workWill not block unknown numbers so pointless!.Version: 1.0.1
✓ Not very good so farWell got this today and so far this is not working for crap not blocking unknown calls letting scammers and teller marketing slide on through talk about some bs they have one more day to get this right if not taking premium money back and canceling this crap. Well it’s been a month or so and it still don’t block any of the unknown or telemarketing much less spam/robotic calls I have to continue putting these in blacklist category to even stop them and if there is no # to put with this what good is it going to anybody so I do not recommend this app it’s just a scam it’s now October still useless still getting a it of crappy calls and this has done nothing.Version: 4.0.4
✓ Won’t UpdatePaid for the app for it to not update. Refuses to download past 30%. All extensions are enabled as per previous reviews but still nothing..Version: 4.2.2
✓ Not happy with this app at allI have had the app for 2 weeks and it has been worse than useless. None of the robocalls I received were caught by the app. When I tried to find out who the caller was, none were on their suspect list. During that time, it only sent one call to voicemail that I’m aware of, and that was a legitimate call from someone on my contact list. I don’t understand why it blocked that call. It also labeled one call I received as “Spam”, but, luckily, it allowed the call to go through anyway. It was a legitimate call from a doctor at a hospital who was calling to tell me that my sister’s surgery had gone well. it’s a good thing that I picked it up despite the spam label. I only picked it up because I was expecting a call from the hospital. Although not on my contact list, I can’t imagine how a doctor’s phone number ended up being labeled as spam. I have cancelled my subscription..Version: 4.1.4
✓ TerribleDoes not work at all. I kept adding all the numbers. I may as well block them on my phone..Version: 2.8.0
✓ Doesn’t workIt’s been installed for a few days, still receiving crap calls. Was supposed to download database but download takes forever and then stops at 99%. Waiting for customer service to do something. Update: contacted customer service again, again no response. Be very careful with these people. They are scammers if you need help they are not available. Be sure to cancel before your trial ends. Update-calls still coming in after several weeks-the app only catches a few calls, most spam calls come through- apparently you need to manually update it daily as it keeps reading not updated. Then it takes some time to update. Still no contact from their support - most likely because there is no support. Horrible horrible app..Version: 4.0.4
✓ RubbishI paid for yearly subscription and it’s not changed absolute discrace total waste of money.Version: 4.7.1
✓ Have my doubtsAbout 10 numbers that are clearly scams yet when I search them always comes up as 0 reports. Not sure how accurate the data base is. Not sure what subscription I’m paying for..Version: 3.0.1
✓ CrashCreating software to eliminate unwanted calls that may be scams, telemarketers, suspicious or just plain annoying is great. Saving these numbers to a community collection point is also an outstanding feature of such Software. That's why I am paying for it. However, each time I try going to my Blacklist, the NUMBO crashes and I have to restart. What a Pain! And that's not all. It doesn't save any numbers to my own Blacklist. And some numbers unknown to me are getting through. I would give NUMBO five stars if these deficits could be fixed..Version: 4.1.4
✓ DisappointedThis app is a piece of crap, it hasn’t stopped not one spam call from getting through, in fact I seem to be getting more robo calls. It’s very annoying..Version: 3.0.1
✓ No Special App for BlockingThe problem w this app is it apparently is not merged w other users around the US. I get telemarketing and scan calls daily. When I look them up on this app it says not reported yet. I can’t be the only one this is happening to. Therefore, the calls still come through unlike another app I used to use which had a huge database of scanner callers and telemarketing. They need to change the telemarketing laws. Correctly, telemarketing cos can piggy back of of anyones phone number using a king. This prevents us from seeing who is really calling..Version: 4.7.18
