Useless
This app doesn’t provide any info I tried it out and it just gives a generic PERSONAL LINE as the lookup for numbers what a waste of money
Totally pointless
Didn’t have the options available that it said it would. Total waste of time and money.
Does NOT live up to its reputation
App DOES NOT CATCH ALL SPAM CALLS APP and is annoying me when I have reported and blocked the same number multiple times
This App Sucks
This app only gives name as is in phone with no additional info.
Little Value
Slightly better than nothing.
iOS features limited/ Comments are android only
I downloaded this app to see the comments for a few specific numbers. However, that feature is available only to android users. The iOS version only lets you call people and use a spam filter
Didn’t work
Didn’t work at all 👍
Frustrated User
My caller ID is wrong and I have reached out multiple times with no response
Trash
Can’t stop my subscription and it’s on auto pay
Mr Number
Not working at all
Important calls blocked
I do not like how it blocks important calls from doctors office, hospital, or nursing home. I have missed important calls due to Mr # blocking.
Beware
Allows false information and wrong name for phone owner
Lies-not free
You should not have an app that’s “free” to download only to then have to pay to use it. Why does the App Store allow this? Such a waste of time.
Doesn’t work
App hasn’t been updated in 2 years and it shows. I don’t think it’s blocked a single phone call. The app shows the numbers as spam when you put them in manually but nothing is ever proactively blocked.
Misleading
They claim a free trial. That is not true. You will pay upfront.
Waste of time and money
Literally this app does absolutely nothing besides, tell you if it’s a personal line or not it doesn’t block spam calls nothing literally I paid for the prescription for absolutely no reason like since six in the morning I’ve had 30 spam calls and this app supposed to be blocking them or filter them from coming through literally does do anything at all waste of time and money in my eyes
Used to work much better
Mr number used to be great with blocking numbers and reverse lookup and now it hardly works at all
Disappointed
This app isn’t effective in blocking calls from the same person using different numbers
Not same as android app
This app not same as android app better than for iPhones
Great
Don’t work
Smh
I’m writing a review that’s not posting on user reports this is ridiculous
Perú
Doesn’t work in Peru.
What a joke
This app is a joke waste of time and money
It is not working as of 03/22/2026
It used to be a great app but lately it doesn’t give you a name of who owns the number. It used to be able to give you the phone number owners, name and information.
Save your $
Not very good I looked up my own no ( I’ve had it for 8 years) and it gave me someone else so it’s using outdated databases
doesn't do anything
every single phone number is a personal line or no name available. waste of money.
Useless home page
I wanted to be able to block toll free number and prefix but there’s absolutely NO DIALOGUE possible between the app and myself other than initially setting up the standard stuff. A genuine disappointment.
Trash
The comments about a number are no
Longer there
Longer there
This app violates your privacy
Do not download this app. Everything in your text tread can be viewed and stored with this app on their server. This app does not ask permission to access your information stay away from this there is no telling what it access on your phone! STAY AWAY. This app is an information gathering thief app.
Trash
Doesn’t work
Stopped working
This app worked for a while and all of a sudden, now it won’t look up any numbers.
Useless does not work
Garbage I’m not paying for it
Active user
I get nothing worth keeping this app. Very disappointed
Not worth the money
Most of the numbers I look up don’t even show who they belong too.
Not worth the money.
I pay for this service and 98% of the time it won’t actually tell me who the caller is. It just says private line, business line or personal line. It’s useless.
Doesn’t work SCAM
Doesn’t do anything it says. Complete scams. Then denied refund. Reporting this company to Federal Trade Commission for online fraud. TOTAL WASTE OF MONEY.
Mr. Number Look-elsewhere
If your looking for an app to find out who’s calling you, do yourself a favor and keep looking because there’s no help here. Absolutely no information given on the first 7 or 8 numbers I typed in.
Ineffective
Still got many spam calls
Can’t block local area code calls
Fails to block spoofed numbers from local area code.
I’ve gotten more scam/ spam calls since paying for it. Like 5 in the past hour.
To above I have to add, mr number 2 just keeps spinning and spinning when I try to activate it in settings.
Just canceled and deleted

No good anymore
Most people I find now do not identify their number, it will
Come up as "personal contact "
Come up as "personal contact "
Every number is a “personal line”
It very rarely works & then only after you’re forced to pay for it. I’d give 0 stars if I could
Names with numbers are so wrong
Not a single number I looked up came back with the rightful owners name, Including my own that I have had for 17 years
Useless
This app literally gives me an option to save the number I put in to check. There’s no other data I can find ANYWHERE. Don’t waste the $4
False advertisement!
Signed up for the $3.99 monthly plan with a free trial, and was immediately charged $33.97. Don’t do it guys!
Terrible
This app no longer gives you any personal phone numbers. Worthless.
Suxs
It has not done anything for me I cancelled same day .. ridiculous I had it before it worked but it sure has fazed out suxxxs
Pointless
I don’t get it
Quality Crash
This used to be a great app with detailed information about who called. Currently, the app virtually never provides any details whatsoever.
I definitely will NOT renew this service and would not recommend it to anyone.

Horrible website
People can write any type of review the person writing the review should be required to leave their contact info Tired of people, writing reviews, and the reviews are lies after lies after lies
So anyone can write a terrible review on a person, but not record who is writing in the review
