Caller-identification service provider, Truecaller on Wednesday announced that it has revamped its app completely for its Android and iOS users across the globe. The company has unified some of the services including calls history, SMS, and Instant Messages conversations under a single tab. Truecaller also introduced a host of new features including a screen caller ID and Smart Sms feature that would help users to sort messages into four groups.
Truecaller is an important app that helps users in identifying a caller by their number. Many times, you get calls from unknown people with nefarious intentions, you can use the true caller app to unmask them and even report the number on the app. The new features will only enhance the overall user experience further.
Talking about the redesigning of the app Sandeep Patil, Managing Director, Truecaller said in a statement, “Communication in 2020 is easier in many ways, but also complicated by the vast amount of ways to connect with people and information. There is a need to streamline this experience, we believe. In recent years we have seen how Truecaller has become your communication hub where all spam - calls, and SMS - is identified and there is no need to switch between different apps for calls and messages. With this update, we want to make it even easier for our users to have streamlined communication.”
“At a time when we should be working to support each other in unity, it is unfortunate to see many scammers and fraudsters trying to capitalize on these difficult times. For over a decade now, Truecaller has been the main line of defense against such activity,” he added.
So here are some of the key features of TrueCaller
Calls and messages in a single tab
The revamped true caller can find all the messages and calls merged into a single list on the Home tab. They will get the notification for calls and messages on the Home tab. The users can make a call or enter the conversation with a single click, just the way it is done on messaging apps like WhatsApp.
Users cab view full-screen caller ID
Instead of pop-ups, the users will get to see Full-Screen caller ID, which will enable them to see who’s calling along with some information about the caller. The Caller ID will use different colours to alert the user about the kind of call it is: If the colour is blue, the call is from contacts and unknown numbers, If purple, it is from businesses or delivery services and if the colour is red then it is from spammers, and if the colour is gold, it is from users with upgraded Gold accounts.
