So I've recently been trying some name display apps such as True Caller, Hiya, and Mr Number but none of them shows the name display when there is an incoming call. I can only look up numbers afterwards and then it will show who it was in the recent calling list. Is this normal? I thought it was suppose to automatically display who it is when it starts ringing?

Do you have those apps enabled under Settings > Phone > Call Blocking & Identification ?

Yes I do.
The caller display only appears once I’ve previously searched for that number in the app. Otherwise, it will not display the first time the number is identified.
