Pros & Cons:
Pros
- Pretty accurate in pulling in most caller ID information
- Reverse lookup search feature
- Once a contact is identified you can easily save to your contacts
- Automatic backup of contact to mrnumber.com to move to another phone
Cons
- Pulls in the callers information after the call, rarely does it happen as the call comes in
Features:
Mr. Number is a Caller ID app with a few features added like reverse lookup search of numbers, ability to backup contacts, and it accurately pulls most caller ID information however in my experience did it rarely show at the time of call but after.
Once the call is identified, although after the fact, it does offer quick save of information to your Contacts list. During the call Mr. Number shows the last time a you received a call from the person.
I downloaded this app at the misguided recommendation of a friend who said Mr. Number can reveal “Unknown” or “Blocked” callers actual phone numbers, but this feature is not true, however would be awesome! Another app Mr. Number created we would better recommend is Call Block Unlimited, which does a pretty good job of blocking those anonymous callers or you can choose to block callers in your contacts list too.

Usefulness:
When it does works properly, Mr. Number can be a good app to avoid telemarketers, or it can be convenient to save caller information if not already in your phone.
Ease of Use:
Once installed you can choose to create an account or not, it runs in the background. When a call comes in, it’s supposed to lookup the callers ID whether it is or is not present as a contact in your phone to show you the information so you can choose to answer or not.
Frequently Used:
Once installed, every time you receive a call Mr. Number kicks in.
