Truecaller app: Identify unknown callers, block spammers and more

May 3, 2016 By Pramod Choudhary

Truecaller has more users than Hike messenger, Telegram, etc. It is the best application to block spam numbers. What’s really impressive about this application is its ability to run in the background to monitor your calls.

Truecaller is a reverse phone lookup tool which helps you in identifying the unknown callers. This app maintains a list of missed and incoming calls. When a number is not in your contact list, Truecaller will get the number’s details from its huge database of 100 million records.

To get details of a phone number, activate the data connection, and open the app. If you do so, Truecaller will run its number scanner module. Once the scanning is complete, the app displays the caller’s full name along with his/her number.

For additional details on the caller, the user should tap on the “I” icon which can be found beside the name. When you do so, you’ll find a neat UI which displays the below details of the caller:

  • Display picture (DP).
  • Network operator.
  • Location.
  • Call history.
  • Option to add the number to the contact list.
  • Option to block the phone number.

This app doesn’t make you aware of the full location of the caller. It will instead display his/her state or city. For improving Truecaller, you can tap on the tag option to categorize the user.

As mentioned earlier, this app has spam blocking functionality. To make sure that the database of fake callers is always up to the mark, navigate to the block section of Truecaller and tap on the update button.

To find a number, you don’t have to go through the YellowPages book, navigate to the search section and enter the name of the person.

Truecaller comes with its own user-friendly phone dialer module. The dialer module has a quick link to open bookmarked/favorite numbers. It displays contacts in an alphabetically sorted list.

This caller ID app has a settings section through which you can configure it to alert the caller that you’re busy. It has the option to make the profile public or private, download profile images of other users automatically, enable/disable notifications for incoming and missed calls, etc.

With the Truecaller app settings, users can enable the speed dial module or change the app’s default language. Users can configure caller ID to show unknown callers. This app allows you to switch from the default blue to the black theme.

Download Links: Android, iPhone

As you can see above, the Truecaller app comes with a lot of useful modules. It is one of the best apps on the Play Store. Thus, you should have it on your phone or voice calling tablets.
