Secondly, the new feature is exclusive to premium subscribers of Truecaller and is only available on devices running iOS 16 or higher.
Techcrunch reports that the new feature is also currently available only for iOS 16 and later versions in India, South Africa, and Nigeria.
Truecaller has stated that these features will soon be rolled out to other countries as well.
How the new feature works
iPhone users now have the convenience of activating Truecaller to search for details of unknown callers through voice commands.
By simply saying "Hey Siri, Search Truecaller" during an incoming call, the app quickly retrieves the number and presents relevant information on top of the calling screen.
According to Truecaller, the new feature for iPhone users will bring an added level of convenience by eliminating the need for manual number searches or widget copy-pasting.
The company highlighted that the Live Caller ID with Siri feature will search the entire Truecaller database, ensuring that the quality of information will be the same as the one offered by Truecaller on Android.
Steps to activate it
- Go to the Premium tab within the app
- Select 'Add to Siri'
- This will allow them to add a shortcut to their device with just one tap
- Once the feature is used for the first time, Truecaller will request access to the device
- It is recommended to choose 'Always allow' to avoid future prompts
- After setting up the Siri shortcut, users can activate the feature by saying 'Hey Siri, search Truecaller'
- This will provide instant caller information
Additional features
Truecaller revealed also that its latest app update has brought some new features to the app.
Apart from Live Caller ID, users can now view and add comments to numbers that have been marked as spam.
This allows them to see feedback from others about the spammer and report their own experience with unknown calls.
Furthermore, the update includes a redesigned SMS filtering feature that can automatically categorise incoming messages into various groups, such as Finance, Orders, Reminders, Coupons, Offers, and Junk.
