  • I tried all of the apps out there!!!

    I don’t know how this all started with all these phone calls coming in that were potential scams and unknown numbers! I just knew it was driving me crazy!
    I ended up looking in the App Store to try to find an app that will help reduce the amount of fake calls I was getting!!
    I tried Numbo after trying about four or five of these apps are supposed to reduce and eliminate phone calls that were taking up my patience.
    I got lucky when I tried Numbo!!! I received one or two a day, and I know that they tried to take care of those also!!!
    Keep up the good work, Numbo!!!!

  • Useless

    I 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.

    Hello, thank you for your feedback. We would love to help you solve your problem. Our application offers a database with OVER 60M numbers. Phone numbers are reported by other users daily, and we also use official sources and data from national agencies. However, the numbers may not be in the database because spammers often change their numbers. They use virtual machines to generate new numbers every day. Please, consider entering numbers into the database so you can contribute to the Numbo community. Thank you.
  • I love this app

    this app blocks the most spam and scam calls than any other app i have used and i have used almost all the top apps of this type and i’ve only seen very few false detections
  • Questionable

    Wanted to give you a better rating but can not as I do not know if I can trust it. Your app frequently and forcefully changes your icon without giving the user a choice to cancel it when applying updates. My wife and several friends also wondered if it was done by a rogue take over of your application or if it was on purpose. Very questionable. Oh, and don’t even suggest it is for Valentine’s Day as it is happening frequently usually followed by failed updates. 🤦‍♂️

    Hello, thank you for your feedback. We are sorry that you rate us with a few stars due to the icon's appearance. The icon changes throughout the year for individual events. After this period ends, the original icon will return. Kind regards, Team Numbo
  • No Special App for Blocking

    The 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.

  • Does Absolutely Nothing - Even with Blacklisted Numbers

    I 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.

  • 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.

    We plan to add voice-over accessibility sometime in 2021. Our primary focus is a 100% stable and working app with fresh spam number database. Numbo app can't refuse spam calls. We can silence these calls and you will still find them in your call log. This is iOS limitation. We constantly improve NUMBO. You can contact our support at support@numbo.com 24/7.
  • Poor user interface

    The 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.

  • Well designed App But Falls Short

    Really like this app but it does not ID numbers very well here In Australia so I’m using Truecaller which automatically ID’s scam calls & provides an easier way to report scam calls, If a mobile call comes up you can get the name of that caller tried searching in your app but no name came up but in Truecaller it did.

  • It’s been fantastic since the last update

    Well I promised I would come back and write a new review after this was all worked out and it has been. It had some kinks for a while, but customer service was pretty awesome about letting me know that they were updating and what was going on and what to expect. I very rarely ever get a spam call. And I feel like the money is very much worth it. For those of you who have a problem paying for a service because you think you should get it for “ free” try to remember these developers work really hard to create Internet safety for us and nobody goes to work and does a good job when they’re not getting paid. :) and the last couple months I’ve been thrilled with what I’m paying for.
