Truecaller now users on-device machine learning to automatically sort the message into different categories such as personal, important, spam, and others.
If it is a regular call, then it will be blue, spam calls will be shown in red, calls from unknown numbers will be represented by purple, and call from Truecaller gold subscribers will be in gold. Not just that, the background of the caller ID changes depending on the type of the call. With the latest update, users can now get full-screen caller ID, given they set Truecaller as their default dialer app.
In the previous version of Truecaller, there used to be a floating pop-up window, which some users complained that it hides some of the options. I’ve had my number for 10 years now and still get collection calls for someone I don’t know! I haven’t found any better app out there, though, so the collection calls will have to manually be rejected.One of the important features of Truecaller is the ability to show live caller ID and detect if it’s a scam call or a regular call. However, while clearly marked in red a call is spam and you answer, you will find they let collection agency calls through. If you refuse their persistence in signing up for school, they rudely say they can’t help. Holding two bachelors and a masters degrees, I politely told the first few I had no interest in school and explained my education level.
The calls I was receiving, promising job opportunities, required me to sign up for more school. I bought the new iPhone X 256GB, but neglected to turn the blocking options on in settings. I have found it blocks legitimate spam calls as I recently put my resume online and immediately began getting spam calls. The problem is, it clearly identifies a spam caller, but still allows some through.

Understanding there are constantly new numbers added to the spam list, I expect to update the app database daily. I got this app, TrueCaller, and its only works part of the time. I would have given it zero stars, but Apple does not provide the zero star option. Since Truecaller does not warn about not working with iPhone 7 in its self description in the App Store, I’ve given it one star. It appears in my family’s iPhone 6 and iPhone 5. The problem is, Truecaller does not appear in the Settings. In order to set up Truecaller on the iPhone, in my case an iPhone 7, to to Settings>Phone>Call Blocking & Identification to turn on Truecaller. This is an update to my prior review, which follows. Someone, please explain to me how this is not a worthless app. Justuseapp Safety Score for Truecaller: Block spam calls Is 23.8/100. This is based on our NLP (Natural language processing) analysis of over 250,784 User Reviews sourced from the Appstore and the appstore cumulative rating of 4.5/5. Really do not understand the near five star review average, in fact I’m baffled by it. Truecaller: Block spam calls is quiet safe to use but use with caution. Two, allows you to double check a number that has just phone you, to see if other app holders have previously reported the number as a Spammer. One, is to allow you to report a spam caller as a spammer to the developer - Gee Thanks (can you hear the sarcasm dripping in my voice?).

I find the app worthless, and the cost to privacy not near worth the price of giving the developers FULL ACCESS TO EVERY SINGLE CONTACT ON YOUR DEVICE. And, if you receive critical text messages, DO NOT enable Truecaller’s SMS filtering. So, if you have T-Mobile, use T-Mobile’s Scam Shield and don’t bother with Truecaller. Truecaller also failed to mark as spam all of the political calls and texts before the U.S. These alerts are followed by other notification methods, but the time it takes to receive an alternate notification and take down an address can have a significant negative impact when every minute counts. Some of those marked as Junk (and therefore had their notifications suppressed when they came in) were from a 911 Computer Aided Dispatch system (used to notify first responders of emergencies and provide address and situational info). Truecaller also marked a couple dozen legitimate text messages as Promotional and Junk. (I manage my parents’ Verizon account.) I don’t remember the other one. One was Verizon’s Sales department returning my call. I installed Truecaller, hoping it would catch the few spam calls that Scam Shield does not (one or two a month), but, in the 6-9 months I had it installed, Truecaller only showed two calls as spam and they were both legitimate calls. I use T-Mobile’s Scam Shield service and app.
