As Apple unlocks iOS, Truecaller’s useful Live caller ID finally works on iPhone

Hindustan Times  

A convenience that Android phone users have had for years is finally arriving on iPhone too. Truecaller, a leading global communications platform and the makers of the popular spam detection app, have released live caller ID for iPhone users. Another example is third-party apps being allowed access to the iPhone’s NFC or near-field communication chip and the Security Enclave components — this means payment apps can enable tap-to-pay functionality for iPhone users. The updated Truecaller for iPhone also refines automatic blocking of spam calls — users have the choice between top spammers and all spam calls. Late last year, mobile service provider Bharti Airtel toggled the switch to enable a network-level “suspected spam” labelling for calls and messages being delivered to users on their network.
