Caller Name ID on Iphone
Does anyone know when caller Name ID for Iphone will be coming. Currently live on Verizon and TMobile iphones, and At&T supports with some phones, but no iphone yet.
This is a huge feature for me, as I use my phone for work, so most of the ppl calling are not in my phonebook. Would love to see who it is so I can do a better job of screening my calls.
info on the service is here:

In case anyone is still checking this, I just discovered that AT&T now offers this for iPhone. You need to get the AT&T Call Protect app and then subscribe to Call Protect Plus at $3.99 a month (interestingly this is billed through the iTunes Store rather than on my phone bill). I'm now getting Caller ID with name (advertised as "Enhanced Caller ID") on my iPhone 8+. AT&T states this will only work in an HD voice capable area, but I think that's most areas with LTE at this point.

Hi there! @demecer Thanks for posting your questions. Unfortunately Caller Name ID is not available on the iPhone. At this time we do not have a timeframe for availability of this feature.
Thanks!

I see that Verizon & T-Mobile now offer the enhanced caller ID from Cequint for the iPhone. Is AT&T going to be offering it as well?

I would also like to know if there's any updates. I just had to give up my Note 7 for the second time and decided to switch to iPhone. I've already ordered my iPhone, and now I find out Caller Name ID is not available on iPhones with AT&T. Verizon and T-Mobile iPhones have Caller Name ID, but not AT&T. What gives?

Clearly, it's a feature that AT&T hasn't implemented yet
(Is there really any explanation that would make you happy?)

Wow, what an asshat.
cbwinnett obviously just wanted something a little more specific than what the AT&T rep said. Is that OK with you?

Is there any update on when Caller ID NAME will be available on AT&T for iPhone? Seems like AT&T is the only one not offering this feature.

AT&T offers name and number display on their landlines, I know because I subscribe to it. Since AT&T already has access to this name data it shouldn't be too terribly difficult for them to display it on their wireless network as well; they certainly wouldn't have to pay to access the database, since it would sorta be like PAYING THEMSELVES, right? In any event, I would pay for it in a heartbeat if it was offered for my iPhone.
