### 2/5 — Doesn’t show info on numbers

*2026-08-11, version 5.31*

Every person that calls or messages when I look up the number it only says personal line and gives no information. What’s the point of the app if it doesn’t give the name of the caller?

### 2/5 — Update

*2026-08-04, version 5.31*

It would be a lot more efficient as there was an option to copy and paste the reviews on Mr. number because a lot of the reviews are left in Spanish or other languages that a lot of people might not understand understand same with English. A lot of reviews are posted in English and I’m sure there are a lot of people that don’t understand understand English so There are people on both the English speaking side  and the Spanish speaking side That can’t understand all the reviews. and so you have to type it out Word for Word on Google translate and go back-and-forth between the app to see what it says and it takes up way too much time and it’s inefficient to the user so maybe a copy and paste option available or a option available on the app so that I don’t have to spend so much time trying to translate the review going back-and-forth between the app to Google translate

### 3/5 — Crazy

*2026-07-27, version 5.31*

This is a cool app, but I looked up some people numbers and people be definitely lying about people

### 1/5 — Useless

*2026-06-30, version 5.31*

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

### 1/5 — Totally pointless

*2026-06-29, version 5.31*

Didn’t have the options available that it said it would. Total waste of time and money.

### 1/5 — Does NOT live up to its reputation

*2026-06-29, version 5.31*

App DOES NOT CATCH ALL SPAM CALLS APP and is annoying me when I have reported and blocked the same number multiple times

### 1/5 — This App Sucks

*2026-06-29, version 5.31*

This app only gives name as is in phone with no additional info.

### 2/5 — Wish this was better

*2026-06-28, version 5.31*

Wish I could block full area codes

### 2/5 — Useless app

*2026-06-27, version 5.31*

It benefits nothing!

### 1/5 — Little Value

*2026-06-24, version 5.31*

Slightly better than nothing.

### 3/5 — Changes disappointing

*2026-06-16, version 5.31*

This was a great App but in the current version you cannot paste a number that calls you.  Instead, you have to manually type it into the App.  Very disappointing.

### 1/5 — iOS features limited/ Comments are android only

*2026-06-13, version 5.31*

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

### 1/5 — It used to work great but now I am getting g daily spam calls from my area code, not in my contacts

*2026-08-24, version 5.31*

It used to block calls very well, now it is letting calls from my area code…. NOT in my contacts get through.

### 1/5 — It used to work great

*2026-08-05, version 5.31*

It used to block calls very well, now it is letting calls from my area code…. NOT in my contacts get through.

### 1/5 — If you click help, the link doesn’t work

*2026-08-01, version 5.31*

Hopefully they will fix. It used to be a good app but customer service has declined in 2026.

### 1/5 — Beware

*2026-07-24, version 5.31*

Allows
False Information to be recorded on phone numbers from people you don’t know and even company phones and does nothing to correct it . No verification. Anyone can write
False information about your numbers

### 1/5 — No help

*2026-07-16, version 5.31*

This app has so many bugs and when you need help no one reaches back out. We need a customer service email.

### 1/5 — Don’t install this version  app because they don’t update

*2026-07-14, version 5.31*

I bought the lifetime premium and they stopped updating the app three years ago. I’m never buying a Hiya app ever again. Waste of money.

### 1/5 — can’t get it to work

*2026-07-08, version 5.31*

i can’t seem to get the app to work and when i click on the help button it freezes. i had this app a long time ago and don’t remember having issues. i feel like i just waisted my money on this app because i’ve gotten no use from it and no way to get help.

### 1/5 — doesn’t work as advertised

*2026-07-06, version 5.31*

this doesn’t do as it claims. no reviews for numbers

### 1/5 — DOESNT DO WHATS CLAIMED

*2026-07-04, version 5.31*

This app is advertised as a reverse lookup number but all it shows is a suggested place that int even right. There’s no help navigating or understanding this pointless app. DONT BOTHER WASTING YOUR MONEY

### 1/5 — Gross

*2026-07-04, version 5.31*

I have just learned this app is being used for ESCORT services. Several escorts have confirmed they use it to screen the Men. Disgusting. This needs to be shut down.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Mr. Number

*2026-08-19, version 5.31*

Exceptional service

### 5/5 — The only app that really does work for me!

*2026-08-09, version 5.31*

I get triple the calls because I have 2 landlines forwarded to my cell. My phone is now doing a great job at filtering new calls but sometimes it does it for important calls as well, so, this app is more important than ever before because mixed in there there’s always one call from the doctor’s office or a business opportunity. When a number looks legitimate (almost familiar) I double check with the program so I don’t waste time and put my identity at risk. Well worth the subscription fee!!!  
PS. I take the opportunity to thank the geniuses that wrote the software and my fellow members who constantly enrich the data with their input. Feels like family!

### 5/5 — 100 necessary

*2026-08-09, version 5.31*

Saved my life and sanity

### 5/5 — Love it

*2026-07-13, version 5.31*

because when you’re in the profession that most of us are in this app is a lifesaver and I just wanna say that there’s also a website that I will include that you should check out tramprant.com may by people like us for people like us and something to combat the USAsexguide.NL

### 5/5 — Great

### 5/5 — Excellent! Best ID service!

*2026-06-23, version 5.31*

I’ve been using Mr. Number for a while excellent excellent people

### 5/5 — GingerXo

*2026-05-29, version 5.31*

I love the feeling I get when I avoided dealing with bs by simply searching-the number on Mr. number. The less bs I have to take per day matters to me. More time for my family.

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2026-05-26, version 5.31*

I have had this for the last year. The crazy part is I just found out how to use it. And I love it. Thank you!
