Have you ever had your phone ring, but you can not see the number and find out who the caller is? This situation can be very annoying, especially if the person in question is harassing you with constant calls.

I have experienced this problem many times before. So, I searched for the best apps to find the name and info of the phone number owner. There are many choices on the market, including several free and paid options. This article will introduce the best applications for finding names and caller information for Android and iPhone.

First, the best Android phone apps (below are the best iPhone apps)

Let me start with the device I’m using, the Samsung a51. Since I did not want to pay, I first looked for a free app for Android and finally managed to find a good one. I recommend two other items that you can refer to for further review.

1-Truecaller (best)

One of the best nv answers in many cases. You will also become addicted to this program because it does more than identify callers for you. You can set it to automatically block telemarketers or anyone who tries to spam your phone repeatedly. It also organizes your SMS folder for you to separate business and personal messages.

Another feature that should be mentioned is its easy user interface. You can review your call history to see if you missed something important. The only drawback of this program is that you have to deal with ads in the free version.

Price: Free

positive aspects

Ability to block telemarketers
Organizes the SMS folder
Easy to use
Provide call history

Negative aspects

The free version has a lot of ads

2- Mobile Number Locator

Some of the features of this app were interesting to me. For example, it identifies the numbers of different countries. In this way, in addition to identifying the caller, you can also identify his location.

This app provides a map with GPS coordinates. You can enter a number, search for it and see who it belongs to. However, the map does not always work properly!

Price: Free

positive aspects

Includes different countries
Global positioning

Negative aspects

Number identification maps are not always accurate.

3- Caller ID – Phone Number Lookup, Call Blocker (New and Premium)

This application is also free and is released after Trocalor and has a high score. In the tests we performed, many numbers even identify the way inside Iran.

Trial version price: Free

IOS version: Not available

positive aspects

Ability to record calls

Negative aspects

It does not always work well

The best apps for iPhone

Although I do not have an iOS phone, I have many friends who use an iPhone. For this reason, I also introduce the best apps for finding names and caller information for the iPhone.

Note that for iPhone, we can say that the best is the Truecaller application (download link from the App Store)

1- Hiya (one of the most popular iPhones)

Most of my friends recommend Hiya as one of the best caller ID apps for iPhones. This app quickly provides valuable information about who called you and where. There is even a blocklist that you can use to block messages or re-calls from certain numbers.

If a telemarketer calls you, you can send a report to Hiya to add it to the app database and prevent her from contacting other people who use the app. The most important feature of this program is that it is free, and you will not need to tolerate ads.

Price: Free

positive aspects

• blocklist
• Ability to report calls to the developer
• Free and without ads

Cons:

Detailed tools for providing more information about the caller are provided in the Premium version

2- Showcaller

If you are looking for a Truecaller clone for your iPhone, I recommend trying Showcaller. It is light storage and does not take up much space. Standard features for blocking and detecting calls are also available in the app.

Of course, Showcaller has a smaller database than Truecaller. Some users have reported that some spam calls are still accessed despite being listed in the database.

Price: Free

positive aspects

• Lightweight and compact
• Ability to block calls

Negative aspects

Small database

3- Me – The caller ID

Another application for identifying numbers and caller information is Me – Caller ID, which allows you to search for numbers, see who they belong to, and block them. Even if you do not save the contact on your phone, you will not have a problem. If someone stores your number on their device, you will receive a notification.

One of the disadvantages of this program is that for the main features to work, you must be connected to WiFi.

Price: Free

positive aspects

• You do not need to save the numbers on your phone
• You will receive an alert when someone saves your list

Negative aspects

The search function requires WiFi

The best programs to change caller information (change ID color)

I decided to complete this article with a short article about the best calorie ID change programs.

1- Fake Call & SMS

Download for Android
Download for iPhone

Since many people recommend Fake Call & SMS as the best app for sending messages and making fake calls, I decided to try it. You can customize some of the details to look more realistic, but the call duration is not manipulated. This app allows you to send SMS to your contacts.

Price: Free

positive aspects

• Ability to send text messages to fake contacts
• Ability to receive fake calls

Negative aspects

Call duration is not adjustable

2- Fake Caller ID (Recommended)

Download for Android
Download for iPhone

It offers similar features and has a stunning user interface. You can also schedule fake calls for a specific time.

Price: Free

positive aspects

User-friendly interface
Ability to schedule fake calls

3- Number Fake Call ID

Download for Android
Download for iPhone

Number Fake Call-ID, which is designed to manipulate the color ID and joke with friends, surpasses other parallel programs by providing a personal ringtone. There are several themes and designs to choose from. If you do not answer the call within 25 seconds, it will be a missed call, and you can reject it.

Price: Free

positive aspects

• Provide different themes
• Miss call

Negative aspects

The personal ringtone feature sometimes does not work well

Answering telemarketer calls or spam is annoying, and some of us are so kind that we can not cut them off. Instead of wasting an hour or being harassed by someone, it is better to download one of the programs on this list. I am very satisfied with Truecaller.
