However, thanks to online phone books and apps people can now mark phone numbers as spam and report them to others.

Avoid Unwanted Calls And Annoying Texts

When you get a call from an unknown phone number you should ignore it. This can be hard though especially if the number appears to be a local area code you recognize.

Regardless of the number that’s calling you should let it first go to voicemail if it’s a number you don’t know. You should then download a free reverse phone book app for iPhone to identify the phone number.  You could Google the phone number, but it’s better to run the number through a reverse phone lookup service because they will have better information.

How To Choose The Best App

A good iPhone caller ID app should have the following features:

  • Free to download.
  • Spam call blocking feature.
  • Community-based. This means that you can leave your feedback about a phone number in the phone book and see the feedback others have left.
  • User-friendly. The app shouldn’t be overly complicated to use. You should only need to copy the number you want to search and open the app to run the reverse phone lookup.

Once you’ve found a good caller ID app for your smartphone you’ll be able to avoid unwanted calls and annoying texts at all times.
