A built-in competitor to the likes of Truecaller? Maybe not.

Anonymous, 06 Apr 2024It won't work because I can already type that unknown ... moreTruecaller doesn't work either. I used it once. This is how it works.
It first sucks all the users contacts list. Let's say someone using Truecaller saved a number as `My Cousin` in their contact list. If that person`s cousin accidentally called you, It will identify it, as `My Cousin`. Not even your cousin...

    It won't work because I can already type that unknown number into Google search bar and it cannot find anything anyway.

      I hope this is only for business numbers only. Whenever I receive a call from a business, their name shows up even if is not in contacts database so I am not really sure what this will change.
