We have been working hard on a few new features, and thought we’d let you know what we are working on! In the last few weeks we were asked a few times if there was a way for us to check if a phone number is a mobile phone number or not and we are now adding a feature to lookup the carrier and phone number type for a phone number.
Currently this will only works for numbers on the North American Dial and keep in mind that the information is not 100% accurate as due to the Number Portability Act numbers originally allocated as mobile numbers can become land lines and vice versa.
You will see this feature added to the service in the next few weeks it will be available free of charge as a lookup service within SendShorty and can also be used for bulk lookups through an API for only 1 cent per lookup!
