"Calling status: I'm taking a shower, call me later"

Mr. Number lets you manage your incoming calls as well as setting a calling status

Mr. Number takes the idea of the personal status on the instant messaging apps and introduce it for calls. From this app you will be able to tell your friends when you're free for a call or when you busy and their calls will be sent to voicemail or even when you prefer text. Mr. Number also can automatically put your device on silence mode, airplane mode or notify through the status if you're attending a call.

What's more, Mr. Number lets you block calls and text from people that you don't want to receive calls from anymore. Likewise, you can add new contacts easily to your phonebook. It allows you to identify mistery calls and catch that way telemarketers or other spammers (this feature is only available for USA). Anyway, you can report spam calls to make even bigger the Mr. Numbers database in this sense.

The only and the biggest catch of Mr. Numbers is that it requires your contacts to have it installed on their devices. Otherwise, they won't be able to see your calls status. The other features: block calls, identify mistery calls and so on, will be able anyway.

Mr. Number has been developed by an emerging developer called Mr. Number, who's focusing on calling managers.

The success of Mr. Numbers lies on if you're contacts are already using it or not. Otherwise you will feel like alone in a huge desert.

Block calls and texts from one number or the world

Mr. Number is the most powerful call blocker and text blocker on the market. Block texts and calls from a person, a business, a prefix, or the world. Pick up and hang up on some callers and send others to voicemail - you decide. Keep the content of blocked texts or trash them. Browse comments from other users when you get a spam call or text. Add ‘Suspected Spam’ to your blocklist and Mr. Number blocks them all automatically.

Reverse Lookup gives you more info about who’s calling

We’ve brought back Reverse Lookup so you can get more information about mobile numbers and landlines in the US. Reverse Lookup numbers that have called or texted you, or enter a number to see if we have a name to go with it. The first 20 Lookups are free; additional Lookups can be purchased through the app (20 for 99 cents).

Business Caller ID provides details and deals

When you get a call from a business line, Mr. Number does a free Caller ID lookup to find a name. If we know who called, we’ll display information about the business, including any offers they may have, their location and a link to their website. (You can also block the business from calling you with one tap.)
