This app is wonderful!Except sometimes when Iam typing it will change a word. I was reporting a caller that kept referring to a town where I grew up in their text, Story Wyoming and you changed the name to Story Way. How did they know I grew up there? Anyway you have a great app. It makes me feel safe not having to deal with scammers. Thank you lots.

I loved this app so much at first, but in the last 2 months (as of the start of June), it just randomly stopped blocking spam calls, or even identifying others. I've both replaced my phone and un- and reinstalled the app since then, but to no avail. I'm ready to just ditch it altogether. Especially now that the caller ID has FINALLY started to work again, but not the call-blocking.

They need to add a feature where the phone doesn't ring, nor shows a missed call from a person who is blocked. They also need to make it to where they can't leave a voicemail UPDATE: 08-28-17 They still have not updated it to where spam/scam calls don't show at all. I'm tired of seeing missed calls from spam/scam, please make it to where these calls don't show at all. Please send them straight to voicemail mail without my phone ringing

I love this app. I use my phones internal call block (Note 4) but Mr. Number helps me weed out a lot of telemarkers and spam when they call (Red Widget pops up). The community and their responses to certain numbers is great! Truly a wonderful app :)

I'm not happy with it any more. It used to identify numbers and now just takes up a lot of memory for just blocking numbers. Most phones do that as a default. And there's smaller apps that will block private calls. Put the caller ID back in and I'll give it a 5

Beth Mylastname

Back down to 3 stars because it lets blocked numbers ring through before disconnecting them, and it's back to allowing spam numbers through. It'll identify them as spam but won't block them until I manually add them to the block list. Five stars when it actually, literally blocks the blocked numbers from ringing through at all.

This app had the option to either pick up then hang up so unwanted calls couldn't even leave voice mail or send to voice mail. Now it only goes to voice mail with no pick up/hang up option need to fix this for android 5.0 and higher then i would give it 5 stars and re-download it.

Art Main August 25, 2017

love this app! so satisfying to let my phone automatically hang up on the a-hole marketers out there. even more satisfying to be able to report new ones. this is what the national do-not-call list should be implementing seeing as they aren't enforcing anything anyways. thanks for the excellent app!

Mijiju Chris September 10, 2017

PLEASE FIX THIS BUG! The call log on the app does not update to current so I don't see the new number infos instantly in the app. After an hour or so it shows up in the app. I have the Sony Xperia XZ Premium (android 7.1.1) PLEASE FIX THIS BUG.

September 4, 2017

Seems like there is some problem with this app on the Pixel XL, which I just got. Like other Pixel user's reviews, it doesn't seem to be working. My last call in the log is from the day before I switched from a Galaxy S5 to the Pixel XL. Worked great on the Galaxy, hope they get this sorted out because it's an indispensable app!

Cherry goddess July 22, 2017

I'VE BEEN USING THIS APP FOR YEARS. I DOWNLOADED IT JUST TO BLOCK UNWANTED CALLS, SPAM ND BILL COLLECTORS .LOL! I LIKE THAT LET'S ME KNOW WHO'S CALLING ND BLOCK WHO I CHOOSE NOT TO TALK TO. I DON'T LIKE MY PHONE TO RING UNLESS I GAVE YOU MY NUMBER. THANKS MR.NUMBER! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Kelby Miller September 13, 2017

Worked like a charm. I was getting 4 or 5 spam calls a day at one point when I gave up and installed this app. It shut off their calls before they even rang most of the time. The callers have given up trying to call me and ive been spam free for over a month. Thank you so much for this app.

Jacob Zimmerman IV August 10, 2017

This app promises way more than it delivers. I have set it to block all calls from numbers not in my phonebook. Sometimes it does after a ring or two, but quite a bit it doesn't even do anything. I don't have any app killers installed, but it acts as if it's not running. It NEVER blocks text messages like it originally said it does. I'm very unhappy with this app and will most likely pay for one that actually works.

Carol Medford September 19, 2017

very helpful app, but my phone still buzzes even when a blocked call comes in. And the caller can still go to my voicemail. So I still am having to delete the voicemail from the scammers. If those two things were fixed I would give it a 5.

Alan Chagoya July 13, 2017

Love the app. Normally I would get like 9-15 calls a day and since installing I've only received probably 10 calls within the last 3 months. Doesn't work perfectly but it's definitely far above anything I could have hoped for.

Amanda Menezes September 19, 2017

Finally just had to uninstall this app because it stopped doing what it's supposed to. It doesn't block calls with a 9/10 spam with hundreds of spam reports, that makes it pretty useless. Also the call ID suddenly stopped working too.

K Luvert August 3, 2017

Omg this is the best app I ever had in my life I give this 5 stars all the way... I love it... When u use this app for some of yall once u block it on here u also have to go into ur phone an block them there as well an it will go straight to voicemail trust it works wonder

Lynn Schaefer August 30, 2017

I loved this app for the longest time. It allows me to block entire area code, which is nice, since most scammers call from the same area code, and lucky for me, I don't know anyone from most of those area codes. HOWEVER, about 3 days ago, the app quit working altogether. Fix the app and I'll change my rating.

chris mccormick September 15, 2017

Love this app, would be better If I could block text from coming through as well. The phone calls have stopped, but the person still bothers me via texts. Please fix!! Great app otherwise.

Angel Yukob August 4, 2017

This app is no good. It only works temporarily right after just installing it but then it stops registering calls completely and doesn't block the unwanted calls. I had to do away with the app altogether since it's useless.

Dakota Kyle July 31, 2017

It works and is easy too use. However, it can be slow and sometimes two or three rings go through before it blocks it. It also sends callers directly to voicemail which fills up my inbox with spam. It would be nice if it prevented the call entirely.

Melyssa Barbone August 8, 2017

I'm uninstalling this app as it now lets spam callers leave voicemail. This app no longer has the feature where you can have the app hang up on the caller. Disappointed. So now I'm trying 'should I answer'.

Staci McDonald July 21, 2017

Absolutely love this app! No more telemarketers, spam or unwanted calls wasting my time. This app blocks everyone! I love reading the customer reviews of where the blocked calls are from. Saves me a google search. So helpful. Life is a little easier thanks to Mr. Number!

Clarissa Lunday August 4, 2017

I used to be able to search numbers and see if anything was reviewed about them and now I can't. Even numbers that have called me and it says its most likely spam....I am unable to see any reviews about the number

Texas Traveler August 9, 2017

Thanks to the creators of this wonderful, easy to use app! No longer do I have to listen to annoying robo calls day in and day out. I was close to getting new phone number until I heard about this app. Now I can keep the number I've had for years!

Dorothy Donaldson September 8, 2017

Doesn't work. Says it blocks private numbers from calling but doesn't. I've been harassed by the same scammer for a week now and downloaded this app to get away from this increasingly hostile moron and it didnt work. False advertisement.

Jesse P. August 16, 2017

I came here from Should I Answer looking for an app that needed less manual intervention. Unfortunately Mr. Number falls short in that it let's calls though intermittently. And was not very configurable. I wish there was a reliable spam blocking app!

fred dunavant September 8, 2017

My big frustration is the inability to contact you guys. I have a pixel XL. Occasionally I have questions for them and I choose the call me back selection (I hate chat). They instantly call me back. The bar shows decline or answer. I choose answer. Nothing happens. Yesterday I happened to notice that Mr Number is blocking their number. Plllllllllease stop blocking their numbers. Us pixel owners need to talk to them!!!!!!!!!

Syamack Ganjavian August 10, 2017

This is a must have app for anyone who is constantly harassed by telemarketers and bots. It completely blocks the call even before the first ring. Update: The app has stopped working since mid May 2017. It neither blocks calls nor identifies the caller.

Megan Hammond September 14, 2017

update: got an LG G6 and the Mr. Number app can no longer read calls, block numbers, show caller ID or block/read text messages. it works but blocked calls always get to ring once or twice before it hangs up on them, so they still reach voicemail.

Adam Kutell July 20, 2017

Recently stopped working correctly. Potentially a conflict with the "True Phone" dialer app. Now it doesn't list any recent calls, and does not display caller ID for incoming calls either.

Tim Morelli August 19, 2017

actually works, i had a few calls from a dodgy private number. Then it told me the persons name/caller ID, yeah they got a real shock when i answered with their name! 5 stars from me 👌

Katie Burak July 27, 2017

This app is magic! I can see which numbers are legit or not. I use it in combination with Hiya. I would always get calls from scam artists, telemarketers, and people trying to steal my info. Not anymore. Blocking these numbers is a joy and I love seeing the reports of these numbers, especially when a Google search may not reveal much. Easy to use and report numbers. Definitely worth installing. 10 out of 10.

Monisade Adegasoye August 20, 2017

Hi Mr number. I used to receive calls from unknown or private number but now I dont. It now only rings once and cuts off and it tells them my line is busy. Please I need to receive calls from unknown and private numbers as it is my working Agency. Please treat as urgent do not block them.

Rubens Januario August 26, 2017

I just installed it and it has already helped me weed out unwanted calls and text msg! Hopefully it will continue working as efficiently in the long run!

Debbie M August 10, 2017

It was working great now it won't show me recent callers. It shows last call was my son July 18th. I have had a lot of calls since then. Not sure what happened but uninstallex.

Rodney G July 23, 2017

I just downloaded this app because I thought it would allow me to not only block calls, but block unwanted callers from leaving voicemail messages. Well this app DOES NOT allow a person to block unwanted callers from leaving voicemail messages. Uninstalled

Joanne Tinsley, Esq. August 14, 2017

It worked well at first, but now it correctly IDs scam calls and says it's blocking them, but they still ring through. I am uninstalling it because it is no longer useful.

Pavlo Olenchyk August 29, 2017

Kinda works. My phone didn't ring, but it still showed up as a missed call and the caller was able to leave a voice mail. I expected the app to pick up and hang up the call. Doesn't have any option on how to manage these calls.

Lynn M August 24, 2017

Started using Mr. Number and it really works. Its awesome. Spam and robo calls have been unrelenting and now they're blocked and can't annoy me. Also a bill collection agency that insists I owe them money - which I dont- cannot annoy me anyore. Peace at last. Thank you Mr. Number.
