Truecaller for Android has turned 6 today! Well, at least when we speak about versions. A big chunk of our newest update focuses on cutting out even more curiosity about who is calling and where in the world they are from!

In many countries, it is important economically to know which operator friends and family are using in order to save on precious talking minutes. That is why we have made it possible for Truecaller users to see operating details on incoming calls and searches within Truecaller.

Apart from this, we know that our users really value knowing which part of the world the number is from. While we are not showing the exact location of the live call, we have improved our location data of what city the number originates from to ensure a more accurate location on incoming calls and number search. In fact, we even show SIM location information for some numbers where we don’t have a name match.

Truecaller fans can also benefit from different themes to match the rest of their phone apps. The app now supports an elegant dark theme for the Caller ID and also the After Call screen. Special Bonus: Truedialer and Truecaller now work more seamlessly together to create the ultimate blocking bond! Block in Truedialer, also means a block in your Truecaller. The new update can be found on the Google Play store, or by downloading the app from our website.

Undo sending your texts

 Truemessenger has aimed to create a seamless way to communicate with friends via texting, identifying newcomers to your inbox, and auto-filtering annoying spam messages. Today we take the next step into making life even easier on Truemessenger: Lots of Emojis and being able to undo awkward text messages.

Everyone has experienced a texting mistake, or even been victim to auto-correct. Being able to undo messages has been available in email and social media, which makes it relevant in today’s way of communicating. In Truemessenger, you can easily identify who you are texting with, so of course it is important to cover all aspects of communication by adding an undo send option for your texts.

Therefore, we have made it possible to take back that last message before it has had time to send.

In further enhancing the Truemessenger app, we have added a text messaging staple: Emojis! Now you can send heart-eyed smiley faces to a person you fancy, birthday cakes to friends, and or even monkeys playing basketball! The world is your Emoji in Truemessenger.
