Apple And Truecaller Introduced Live Caller ID Feature For These iPhone Users

For iPhone users, Truecaller has unveiled a new Live Caller ID feature that simplifies the process of getting caller information. Users can easily find the data they need on the platform due to the inclusion of Apple's virtual assistant. However, due to particular limitations, not everyone can use this service. 

Using voice commands, iPhone users may conveniently activate Truecaller to look up caller information. During an incoming call, just say "Hey Siri, Search Truecaller" to have the app quickly find the number and display the relevant information above the calling screen. However, access to this latest feature is limited to Truecaller subscribers and only works on iOS 16 or later-compatible smartphones. In essence, users need to subscribe to Premium in order to receive the most recent update.

The most recent version of Truecaller for iPhone makes seamless use of App Intents and Siri Shortcuts to produce search results. By doing away with laborious number searches and widget copy-pasting, this upgrade promises to provide iPhone customers with a new level of ease. The company emphasised that the Live Caller ID with Siri feature scans the whole Truecaller database, producing results of the same calibre as those from Truecaller for Android.

Users of Truecaller for iPhone must first enter the Premium menu and choose "Add to Siri" in order to enable the Live Caller ID function. With the help of this feature, a shortcut may be quickly added to the device. The user will be asked to provide Truecaller access the first time they utilise the feature. It is best to choose "Always allow" to avoid further prompts. After setting up the Siri shortcut, users may use the service by saying "Hey Siri, search Truecaller," which will instantly display caller details.

The most recent Truecaller update also gives users the option to review and comment on numbers that have been designated as spam in addition to the Live Caller ID tool. Users may now report their own encounters with ominous calls and view comments left by others about spammers. A new SMS filtering tool is also included in the upgrade, which automatically classifies incoming messages into sections including Finance, Orders, Reminders, Coupons, Offers, and Junk. India, South Africa, and Nigeria presently support iOS 16 and later versions with this feature. According to Truecaller, other nations will soon be able to use these features as well.
