The free Android application WhoAreYou uses information including Facebook photos, names, locations, and business logos to immediately let Android smartphone users know who is calling, even if the caller is not listed in their phone contacts.
The app from YouMail taps a database of more than 200 million U.S. phone numbers for the information, with many of those numbers tied to social profiles, including Facebook.
WhoAreYou also offers users a “ditch” feature, which allows them to send calls from selected numbers directly to voice mail.
