Add country codes to saved phone numbers without editing contacts one by one. PlusOne scans on your device and lets you choose a country code and the contacts to update. Moving abroad or changing SIM cards? Work through local numbers in groups. Choose the correct country for each group; PlusOne does not automatically identify the country of every saved number. WITH PLUSONE YOU CAN: - Find numbers that may need a country code - Search contacts and select individual phone numbers - Review every before-and-after change before saving - Apply a country code only to numbers valid for the selected country - Preserve iPhone pause and wait extensions - Create a local contact backup before making changes - Access private iCloud backup history with Premium - Restore eligible previous PlusOne purchases FREE AND PREMIUM Fix up to 5 phone numbers each day and create one free local backup. Optional Premium access unlocks unlimited country-code updates, additional local backups, contact import, iCloud backup history, contact sharing, and deletion. Available plans and prices appear in the app before purchase. BACKUP AND RECOVERY Local backup import adds contacts not already matched in your address book. It does not undo individual number edits and may add another contact when a number has changed. iCloud backup import also keeps existing contacts. Imports never replace your whole address book. CONTACTS STAY PRIVATE Contact scanning runs on your device. Contacts are not uploaded to MyClickApps. Optional iCloud backups stay in your own iCloud account, where MyClickApps cannot access them. This app contains optional auto-renewing subscriptions and one-time purchases for premium functionality. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. You can manage or cancel subscriptions in your App Store account settings.
