Caller ID and the Smartphone
June 4, 2011
With the infiltration of smart phones, this app was just a matter of time. True Software has created TrueCaller, which brings caller-id functionality to smart phones.
Because it searches “Yellow- and white-pages from around the world,” it not only lets users know who’s calling, it can update phonebook contacts. TrueCaller includes an extensive filter for fraud, spam, and unwanted calls.
While there are other caller-id apps out there, the additional functionality in this one makes it stand out in the crowd. These are features users have wanted when it comes to any kind of phone. It’s a nice example of technology meeting a need.
Another enhancement for mobile findability.
