Reverse Lookup Reviews

I read all the reviews about how wonderful ReverseLookup was, and since it was free I thought I’d put it on my phone, and see if I could determine who was making calls to me.
First, just as a lark, I thought I’d run my and my wife’s cell numbers, as well as our land line. My cell was fine. My wife’s cell number, which she’s had for well over 10-years, and it came up with the name of a woman neither of us know! Our landline showed my wife’s name, but our account has always been in my name.
Of the calls that I’ve received and checked, I’ve gotten no information beyond what showed on my price caller ID. However, down in the lower right corner is a button taking you to Spokeo, where, for $0.95 they will provide more information. After the single $0.95, you will be signed up for a month, of recurring charge.
ReverseLookup may be free, but it’s not even worth that price!
Additional review: Tbis is the absolutely most fraudulent App on the Apple App Store. It’ll look up a number, not give you the information, and then redirect you to a pay site. I don’t understand how all these people rate it so high. It DOES NOT do what it says it does. So far as I’m concerned, that’s a fraud, and Apple should remove it from its App Store.

but I also understand the fact that you get what you pay for in life. This is just another example. I get a ton of calls from numbers not in my contacts, and if they don't leave a message, I sometimes will try to look the number up using ReverseLookup. I am pretty sure it's never given me an answer...says I need to pay to get info. Duh. Having said all this, the ONLY app like this that I have ever seen work as advertised/expected is ZabaSearch Premium. Its free, but you have to log-in w your Facebook acct to get Premium, which is the only one that works. Problem is, there's no app for ZabaSearch. It's just a website. Does anyone know of a reverse phone look-up that actually works...for free? I know I'm cheap, but that doesn't change the fact I want it FREE!

I am rewriting my review because there has been a significant improvements in ReverseLookup that are noteworthy. The accuracy of the results seems to have improved over the years. I tried it with ten phone numbers I recognize and it was able to give me the names for eight phone numbers. I understand it may not be possible to give correct names for all the phone numbers but ReverseLookup was pretty accurate on my tests.

One thing I would like to have is the ability to import phone numbers from the call log history to ReverseLookup to lookup those numbers. It would be even better if ReverseLookup was able to run reverse lookup automatically on all incoming phone calls. There may be some restrictions to this though. Regardless, this is an awesome simple app that I use almost everyday. I would happily share it with my friends.

Thanks to the developers. Keep it awesome!

I love ReverseLookup. I used it everyday. Always have me the information I was looking for. But it stopped working a few days ago. Instead of showing me who’s number it is, it just says “error”. Says “reinstalling ReverseLookup may fix the issue.” Thats a problem because if I uninstall it I will probably loose all my search history. I’d rather just leave it as is and at least keep my very long list of numbers I’ve looked up in the history. I have it 5 stars because of how great it WAS. As of this posting I have to give it 3 stars.

My wife received a text from an unknown number not in her Contacts, and the sender did not identify herself. Knowing the potential dangers of blindly replying, I tried to do a reverse look-up, on-line for her. Every one of them ended up asking to establish an account or pay before identifying the caller/texter who they claimed to have detailed info on. I then figured I'd try an app, landed on this one, and in seconds, had the name of someone who we know. Worked like a charm, was very fast, free, and did the job! So good to have ReverseLookup!

I never write reviews. TBH, I don’t really enjoy to...but I’ve got to give credit where credits really due. This is a great app/service (even the free version) that’s very informative. I’m always having weird numbers call me so this is helpful. The other thing I have to mention that made ReverseLookup deserve a review is that they don't get too annoying with the ads or rating request and things of that nature. Thank you for making this guys!(and girls?)!

I have used Reverse Lookup as my go app to find a name for any number I do not recognize. Having used it beside another, pricey app that had lookup, spam blocker, and few other bells and whistles, I found on many “lookups” , Reverse Lookup was more accurate and much more likely to provide names than its more expensive relative, and if read comments from other users ( I contribute regularly ) it doesn’t take much effort to discern a legitimate caller from a scammer. Thank you.

Not great....but gives you name (usually) and while it does not seem to be great with details and I don't believe it gives the correct city necessarily....(as I looked up m own, my wife's and my best friends and seemed to get the City/area where the phone "service" originates) it does supply a fair idea of the area it likely comes from. As I am just usually trying to look up spammers or mis-dials, I was happy to find something that actually gives anything that truly is "Free!!!"

The days seem to be gone when you could get details for free.

For sure the most reliable, fruitful, insights into the otherwise unknown! I’ve tried them all. Nothing comes close to the ratio, accuracy, ease of use and its ability to clarify information that is sometimes designed to be very unclear (the bad guys). As for the legit callers, (the creditor, friend, bf, etc.) dead on every time. Enough to convince you beyond any doubt, without to much info to make you feel creepy. Straight forward, no nonsense, plenty of white space, simple, fast... a one of a kind must have!

ReverseLookup is really good and actually does what it claims without a catch. Most similar apps either only give you some information, and then try to get you to pay for the premium version or are just junk but sometimes both. I was really surprised that it will give you the name of the number holder most of the time. Whitepages makes you pay for this info. Anyway, it’s refreshing to actually find what your looking for in a space like number lookup where they are all trying to charge you for this info.

I don’t know how long it will last but i am truly impressed with the fact that ReverseLookup is exactly what it claims to be (FREE) and that it does exactly what it claims to do. Free reverse phone number lookups! I have tried countless others and 99 percent of them were free apps in as much that ReverseLookup was free but they all had a subscription fee attached. Fast and simple with no scam attached. I would happily pay a one time fee if there was one. What more can i say. Try it, you WILL like it!

I went through 4 apps before I found this one that’s suppose to be free. All of which you must start a subscription and it is expensive like 9$ a week i cant imagime anyone would pay that. one made me give a 5 star review before i could use jt then imformed me i cohld get 3 free if i signed up for a weekly subscription. ReverseLookup is what i was looking for the whole time! it actually is free and does what its suppose to do. i already deleted the others or i would leave feedback for ReverseLookup so others dont have to go on a easter egg hunt to find a honest app. thx

GREATEST OF ALL TIME!!! Ok, maybe not all time, but with my experience that’s exactly what it is!!! Definitely Greatest At This Time!!! I wanted a number searching app, so I grabbed the first 5 top rated apps. I can honestly say that ReverseLookup should b in a different classes the rest. I took 5 different phone numbers and did a search on every app. The others gave me nothing but the wireless carriers name. Whereas this baby gave me the name of the owner for each number. Now I'm pretty sure it won't go 100% everytime, but it just kicked the H3££ out of the other posers. So YES, I FEEL LIKE THEY DESERVE A 5 STAR rating from me!!!!! Will suggest this to everyone!!! THANK U for giving me the knowledge of whos bothering me by calling me cell

I work for a Baton Rouge business and had gotten a call early in the morning and forgot to ask their name, though I took down some of their information - including their phone number. I spent almost half an hour on the computer trying to find a reverse lookup website that wasn't a scam and wasn't trying to get you to pay $40 for a single name that as an employee of a local business, I needed. Out of desperation I downloaded ReverseLookup and the half an hour I spent on the Internet was put to shame when the client's name popped up within seconds! So tired of the internet's run-around when it comes to this kind of thing, thank you Reverse Phone Lookup!

This here application does what it states would be done in the description. Does it well. It reveals the phone number, name and addresses of the # in question. About half of them are unlisted numbers, so it’ll state “landline, cell phone, etc.” and location. Three times as many listings as any other app of its kind. There’s a little bit of advert you stare at for the very few seconds you wait. I’ve yet to see any ads that were obnoxious, let alone obscene. Most are just a couple of descriptive lines and a link. No blinks or screams or, the one I most dislike, putting itself in front of where you need to click. I really only notice an ad the first time or two I see it, then it pretty much gets blocked out by my subconscious.

Awesome sauce!!! I was txtd by someone and just their number showed but not their name. It was a cell number which are hard to identify through White Pages, and the like. This is the first app I tried and it just revealed this persons name. I feel very relieved now because I actually thought it might be this creep that’s an unfortunate acquaintance of a family member. I know now it’s someone who just miss txt’d. White Pages did go as far as revealing the first letter of the person’s first and last name, but then you’d have to pay to see the rest. Using ReverseLookup. The revealed name also had the same first letters of their first and last name just as White Pages did. Therefore I know ReverseLookup works and I am looking at the correct name.

No matter how many apps I install to block calls from spammers and scammers, even after being on the Do Not Call registry for over 5 years, they’re still getting through. I’ve tried doing reverse lookups on repeat offenders using many websites and they all want me to pay for the info every time. No thank you. So I installed ReverseLookup. It’s free (not that I’d mind paying a little to use it since it works so well), it’s never disappointed and now I look up the number as it rings, answer with “Well, hello (enter name here)” and they get so scared that they hang up and never call back. Works much better than ignoring calls lol! Anyway…thank you so much for this amazing app. I use it several times a day, everyday! Getting less calls now too.

I have looked up numbers that I know are currently active and who's name the number is registered to. I have done it for a while now with several different reverse look up apps just to see the accuracy and up to date quality of the apps. I chose Reverse Lookup because 7out of the 10 numbers I entered came back correctly. Even if there was no name on a couple of them, it was the correct carrier. Great way to see who the hell is calling!

P.S. if you're gonna use ReverseLookup to check your mans phone number list out because you think he's cheating ... it works..I know from experience ...but save the wasted time and keep your self-respect! Just walk away! If he has you all tied up in knots and you feel the need to check up on him then something is wrong!

I was squeptichal at the beginning after I tried several different apps for the same purpose just to see how I wasted my time and the worst part of all! Every time you get an app BE CAREFUL and read all the permissions you are about to give to this companies which even after you uninstall their stupid application , can use the info that got from all your personal data and stored! So is it really an ap that important? Well if it is then go straight and get a good safe paid app. But just for basics this ap is great. I looked up contact numbers of a couple worker meaning they are strangers to me therefore not part of my data. And with my co worker next toe verifying the names given and got th as all good. After that just go to Facebook and search for the name given, and you might find it interesting. This is so far my best, easy, free and fast to look up who is calling. I hope my review helps.

ReverseLookup DEFINITELY HANDS DOWN gets 5 stars ALLLLL ACROSS THE BOARD.! It tell whether it’s a cell phone or not, if it is it displays the callers mobile network.!! {I.E. Sprint, AT&T, T-Mobile} if it’s not a cell phone carrier it will display (LANDLINE) also I’m under a family plan which the bane is under a different person, but when my # is searched it STILL says my FULL FIRST & LAST NAME.’!!! IDK HOW THE HELL IT GETS THE INFO.?? But it’s DEAD ON accurate all15-20 numbers ive searched so far.! I can’t say enough about ReverseLookup.! It’s the greatest.! Thanks a bunch.! I would even go as far as to saying I would pay upwards of $10 for ReverseLookup if I knew how well it would work prior to purchase.!!! A+++++++++++

Lifesaver to have in my professional line of internet marketing/cryptocurrency sales. I receive so many inquiries worldwide, & some are trolls, scams, pranks, harassing, etc. This is amazing.
Just PLEASE don’t start charging for the names like Mr. number did, and I will always keep you. LOL thank you so much!
I uninstalled Mr. number and the similar apps like Hiya and Tru Caller, a long time ago once they forced charging for the names and report-writing ability.
I can deal with a couple of ads here and there like you have, for sure! :-)
Any more than what is there, and yeah, it’d be cluttered, run slower and would be a little too much to deal with.
But I understand a few ads- & I can definitely deal with what’s there in the amount it’s there currently now, in order to keep it free.
So thank you so very much.

I have terrible 3rd party system for work on my phone. It’s a security app and it’s terrible. Every 3 months when I have to change my password it wipes my phone contacts and emails. I try to save in I cloud, back up in google and outlook. When reset it never gets all the contacts. I constantly have calls and texts from people who know me but I don’t have their number saved. ReverseLookup is 9 for 9 so far. Way better then just googling it.

This is an best app I ever had for free. I wouldn’t have mind to pay $$ for ReverseLookup like this even if it were a paid app. It made my life lot easier. The information is fairly up-to-date. One can easily search numbers by copying and pasting numbers from contacts, or simply by manually inputing any number. The information listed is the bare minimum, but for a free app, it is more than fair, and really, more than one should expect. I highly recommend ReverseLookup to anyone looking to identify people with only a phone number to go by. As is the norm, some numbers are unlisted, or its owner cannot be ascertained. But, in my specific experience, neither could a paid service like Whitepages provide anything more. THIS IS AN EXCELLENT APP!!!

My phone’s caller ID function already tells me what city, state the call is coming from. That is all ReverseLookup does. It does not provide additional info unless you access another portal to get more detail, for which you have to pay. Then, it’s obvious that a one star review will not be accepted, saying the nickname I’ve come up with is taken. I’ve created a zillion crazy nicknames that couldn’t possibly be taken. So I’m going to apply 5 stars & see what happens...

Why was I billed an additional $49 for what was supposed to be a $.99 transaction? Just asking.
