How to Look up information about a number >

1 Copy the number

To find out more information about a possibly fraudulent or spam call you’ve received, open the Phone app, go to the Recents tab, tap the circled ‘i’ next to the call, and then hold down on the number near the top of the screen to copy it.

2 Paste it into Hiya

Next, open Hiya. It should recognise there‘s a phone number on the Clipboard and ask if you want to look up its info; tap Yes to go to the Identify tab. Otherwise, paste the number into that tab’s search bar, then tap the suggestion to identify it.

3 Review the caller’s info

Hiya will search its database for any info it has about the number, such as whether it’s a mobile or landline. It also gives you options to report or block the number, along with a summary of other people’s previous experiences of it.
