But the last update was over 1 year ago. There have been new area codes added in the San Francisco area; but they are not in the app. So limiting to 4-stars ### 3/5 — Nice to have *2014-11-24, version 1.9* I think this app is nice to have but it doesn't list all of the towns in the area codes. Especially the Illinois area code of 618. ### 4/5 — This is an excellent tool... *2013-02-10* …I use it quite often to find out which region of the country some one is located without having to check online sources. Awesome! ### 3/5 — Not at all complete. *2012-12-30, version 1.7* Several areas I've lived in aren't included. ### 5/5 — Good for the holidays *2012-12-27, version 1.7* When the phone rings! ### 5/5 — Good, helpful app *2012-11-05, version 1.7* This app is useful. Quick and easy to use. Good reference. ### 5/5 — Who's calling? *2012-10-15, version 1.7* It's nice to know who's calling u ### 5/5 — Very Helpful *2012-07-15, version 1.6* This app actually helped me faster than Cha Cha.(: I suggest this app to anyone that's trying to find a zip code or area code(: ### 5/5 — Zip codes *2012-05-29, version 1.6* It's a big help in my line of work . ### 5/5 — Awesome! *2012-04-14, version 1.6* Fantastic app. It Works great. If someone calls you and you don't know who it is, just look up the area code and find where they were calling from. ### 3/5 — Spelled my town wrong, of course *2012-01-31* It's (828), not MORGANTOWN, I don't live in West Virginia! There's no 'W'...please fix (; it's two different towns. (will re-rate) But this is a great app nonetheless, I've used it 4 times and gets it quick! ### 5/5 — Nice app *2011-12-04, version 1.6* Works great ### 5/5 — Good *2011-10-24, version 1.6* It's accurate ### 5/5 — Perfect! *2011-10-03* This is a really good free app with no intrusive (annoying) ads! Choose this... ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Out of date *2022-03-12* The app itself is great. However without constant upgrades it is useless. By that I mean the data that it displays and checks on. I will look elsewhere for a better app, one that is judiciously upgraded with new information. ### 1/5 — Charlotte *2013-03-01, version 1.8* I can't even find my hometown of 100,000 population - either by area code or city. ### 1/5 — Missing states *2012-05-17, version 1.6* Seriously, you need to check your listings again. Canada and others included, where's Idaho? Lol ### 1/5 — Needs even more advertising *2011-02-02, version 1.5* Developers who sell advertising in their iPhone application are experts at diluting the overall value of the app. Forget about the users overall experience. Since the app is free, who cares? Jam as many ads that you can fit on that little screen. There can never be too many ads. ### 1/5 — Area code program *2010-11-18, version 0* This program worked very well until it was updated, now all it does is crash as soon as you open it ### 1/5 — Crash-ola *2010-11-17, version 0* Used to be very useful until they decided to update it. Now all it does is crash. Good news is it deletes very easily ### 1/5 — Crashes *2010-11-13, version 0* New update = Crashes all the time. Please fix!!!! ### 1/5 — Crashing(new update) *2010-11-13, version 0* Just updated and all it does is appear for 2 Mississippi and CRASH!!!! ### 1/5 — Only for the US *2010-05-22* Please say in your write up which country this is for. ### 2/5 — Not kept up to date *2025-02-07* This product is more than 20 months of updates. The US and North America use of phone numbers grows exponentially and this product does not update ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Excellent App! *2024-04-01, version 2.3* Excellent App!

This has helped me out multiple times. ### 5/5 — Works great *2016-03-30* I've used this app for years. It's always been quick accurate and reliable.
