a True calleran app that allows you to identify and block any call on iOS, Announce today New service update. The big news is the arrival live caller id on iPhones, a resource that can help identify a possible suspicious contact or number of an unknown person.

It is not easy to use this function, it is worth noting. Let me explain: In addition to ordering iOS 16 (or higher) and a paid Truecaller subscription, you still need to add Siri shortcut. When a call is received, the user must activate the personal assistant and say “Search Truecaller” until the name of the caller is displayed.

In an interview with TechcrunchThis limitation is due to “the way the iPhone handles third-party caller ID apps,” a company executive said.

According to him, Apple only allows a limited set of numbers, determined by the Truecaller spam algorithm, to be stored in a directory associated with Domain CallKit. For the rest, a manual search is required, which is performed through Siri.

Fortunately, new iPhone users can enjoy the Reboot (Back Tap), a feature that debuted in iOS 14, instead of always-on Siri. This way, you can associate the gesture with the “Search in Truecaller” shortcut in your accessibility settings for the feature to do its job.

Finally, the app update also brings spam detection and filtering improvements.¹. Also, there is a new feature called comments. As its name suggests, it allows users to post and read other people’s opinions about suspicious numbers.

Truecaller premium plan, worth noting, costs 9 Brazilian reals monthly or 60 Brazilian reals annual. There is also a gold subscription, which costs 300 Brazilian reals And it unlocks a greater set of features. The app is free to download.
