At the base of the application, there is a large database of telephone numbers in many countries. If what I’m hoping is true, then it will also be updated daily to keep up with new numbers being recorded. But as of now, the app still works well enough that it’s not really a cause for concern. While I was initially skeptical about the scope of the app – whether it would work internationally or not. Happily, it does.
The application supports numbers from different callers and regions, from Europe to Asia, America, Africa, and even Australia. Maybe just less than Antarctica. As you can tell from the large number of, well, numbers available around the world, I was a little worried that the app wouldn’t support my region.
Incoming calls try to be collected by the app when the phone signal is activated. It didn’t go smoothly and there was a little delay (Waiting), but the result was very detailed. There were names, addresses, cities, states, nations, and carriers. In fact, you can know everything about this person if they are registered in your database right down to the information on their doorstep. While you won’t use this info that much, in my opinion, it’s fun because of the level of detail it provides about callers.
Another thing that is very important about this app is that you can actually comment on phone numbers. I suspect that instead of an internal database, they are exploring public databases that are full of information that can be accessed through traditional means. I have seen online phone books that give you the ability to annotate past phone numbers – mostly to report telemarketers and scammers. With the power of general intelligence at your disposal, it is easier for you to avoid and prevent these problems. Even better: without even picking up the phone.
That is another great feature of this app. It also gives you an easily accessible function to log and block these calls if you don’t want to see them.
The app also supports T9 searching for your last calls and names in your contacts. You will know this very well because it is natively supported on the Android call function. The entire app will transform your contact and call to enhance this experience. Although it will be a little uncomfortable at first, if you stick with it long enough, it will become second nature. Smart search and fast communication are also integrated. From these numbers, if you want, you will be able to reverse the unknown numbers that are searching in your phone.
Truecaller is only 2 MB of in-app data, if you have selected an offline calling dictionary, it can be much larger than that. That is, a complete log of numbers within your country is downloaded to your phone. While this may eat up a lot of storage space, if you’re one for ID, it’ll be well worth it in my book.
Truecaller Caller ID, spam blocking, and call recording are full-service apps, and in my opinion, it shouldn’t get to the point where Android needs to support this app. If it was an integrated feature within the OS itself, that would be great. But now, this app will prepare for those unexpected, unknown phone calls.
