Hello! Ever get a call and think, “Who is this again?” just from the name? Especially with clients, old contacts, or business acquaintances – the default phone screen only shows name and photo, no company or title info. You end up scrambling through contacts every time. 'WhoCallMe' fixes that perfectly! Convert once, and company, department, and job title appear neatly on your incoming call screen. Now it's so much easier: - Incoming call screen shows name + company + department + job title + photo (option for full-screen original photo too!) - Recents list and messages show company & title info right there – no more guessing who it is - Search contacts by name initials, company, department, or job title (perfect Korean consonant search supported) - Auto-generate nicknames if you want (toggle on/off) - Customize exactly what shows: turn company, department, title, nickname on or off as you like Super simple to use: 1. Open the app and tap Convert once (adds the extra fields to your contacts – takes seconds) 2. Go to Settings and choose what info to display (company/department/title/nickname/etc.) 3. Use your regular Phone and Messages apps as usual – extra info appears automatically! 4. Restore anytime to go back to original contacts (safe and easy) Completely Free App Only one small banner ad at the bottom – collapsible so it never gets in the way. Indie developer (Young-Jun Lee) has been updating it steadily for over 10 years. Optimized to work smoothly on the latest iOS. No more confusion when that important call comes in! Make your business life a little smarter with WhoCallMe :) Feedback or questions? Always welcome!
