[android] Can we locate a user via user's phone number in Android?

I checked play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=and.p2l&hl=en They are not locating the user's current location at all. So based on the number itself they are judging the location of the user. Like if the number starts from 240 ( in US) they they are saying location is Maryland but the person can be in California. So i don't think they are getting the user's location through LocationListner of Java at all.
