About the project

About Mobile Device Plans

Mobile identifier analysis tools for forensic education and research.

Purpose

Developed through student research at the University of Portsmouth, Mobile Device Plans has grown into an award-winning mobile identifier analysis platform. It brings telecom identifier analysis, validation and public numbering records together in one integrated service.

The platform supports forensic education, practical investigation and research by giving students, lecturers and researchers free access to a breadth of specialist tools that would otherwise be spread across multiple services.

What you can check

  • International telephone numbers and numbering ranges
  • Integrated Circuit Card Identifiers (ICCIDs)
  • International Mobile Subscriber Identities (IMSIs)
  • International Mobile Equipment Identities (IMEIs)
  • Country calling codes, MCCs, MNCs, TACs and reporting bodies
  • Luhn check-digit validation

Academic foundation

The platform was developed through academic work at the University of Portsmouth. It operates independently of regulators, mobile networks and the GSMA, and identifies these organisations when their publications are used as sources.

Enterprise and Innovation Award

Mobile Device Plans received the 2024 Enterprise and Innovation Award in recognition of its practical and innovative approach to telecommunications identifier analysis.

The award was presented by the University of Portsmouth.

Creator

Mobile Device Plans was created by Ayodeji Oke through student research at the University of Portsmouth in Portsmouth, United Kingdom.

How to use it

Use test values rather than real subscriber data whenever you can. For assessed or published work, check the original source and its date. A result from this site is not proof that a number or device is genuine, active or owned by a particular person.
