Anyone caller

This should be called anyone caller because it literally doesn’t do what it says it does, I’ve been running this for a couple of weeks and it’s never picked up any call , all calls still coming through , it doesn’t even give me the option to report as spam from the number and I’ve allowed all the things it said it wanted to have access to. Total rubbish

Truecaller

This is a joke you have to pay premium
Plans fir this feature to work or any of them
There is no free plan. Once you’ve had a fre trial of 3 days which is hardly enough time to experience this app in full !! It’s expensive but it looks like it could be good if it dies ID live withheld calls filter spam etc but it’s all fur a price ? There is no demo or any reviews hardly. That’s why I rate it 1 star.

Do NOT use/buy this useless app!

So the app says in it’s description you can find out who’s calling you from a withheld number / no caller ID…..downloaded the app, purchased the subscription so next time someone phones withheld number, truecaller will tell me right? Nope …… doesn’t work in the slightest, done a number of test runs with this app from various phones using withheld number and the app doesn’t show me the number, just yet the same no caller ID come up. Now I’m having great difficulty deactivating my account, it just doesn’t want to deactivate after several attempts to close my account. Don’t waste your money with this useless app.

True caller is scam caller

I recently downloaded the Truecaller app and logged in, providing them with my details. Almost immediately, my personal information was accessible to everyone. Since then, I've received multiple unwanted calls, including a fraudulent call and solicitations from a gas line company and an electricity provider. I'm very disappointed with the lack of privacy and security.

Не всегда изменения идут на пользу.

В начале приложение на самом деле было хорошое, да действительно во время звонка на экране высвечивалась что это SPAM или другая сомнительная информация о входящем звонке.
Сейчас вообще нечего такого нет, что бы проверить входящий номер - нужно самому проверять номер в базе этой программе, да и в последнем обновлении еще и реклама появилась. Удаляю. Спасибо.

I can’t believe that in 2024, there’s an app, as big as True caller, that doesn’t allow the users to delete their account or simply logout of it! What if someone is moving countries and got a new number? Or that they simply wish to base their search in their new country! Please fix this.

AVOID THIS APP, THEY SELL YOUR DATA!

I noticed that once I downloaded true caller my spam calls increased considerably, only to do some research to find out other users are complaining of the same issue. Apparently they sell your phone number online to spammers so you are hammered with spam calls, the aim being to force you to pay for the paid version which has a filter feature.

Appear to work wonders

Since starting to use I’ve almost received no scam calls at all which had been so regular that it was getting irritating yet now only one has come through to report and block. Even the manual update instead of the automatic version is excellent as I’m new to it so still testing before even considering if to subscribe.

Doesn’t work and no customer service

Paid for premium. No call ID, no clarification on SPAM even though every single option and setting has been done as per instructions. Now on day 4 following a customer services ticket being raised. No response, no acknowledgment. Don’t bother. It doesn’t filter any calls at all, doesn’t highlight them as spam. You’re the person doing the filtering and reporting! I’ll just go back to ignoring calls (as it’s no different here, I’m none the wiser as to whether spam or not) unless it’s a known number, looking them up and then blocking. Useless app

Nobody will sign up for truecaller newly and existing ones will quit

I have ran a business for 14 years and stopped it where customers and employees wanted me to continue, but I was settling abroad. Customers were given lowest prices and employees were given best salaries and optimised work load. So, Customers and Employees spread their word and I earned enough on monthly subscriptions. If you make the most important feature premium, I will create an app with government for free with ad removal at premium. If you do that, you will earn hundred or thousand or ten thousand times as people all over the globe will install it. Don't forget to block spammers within 10 reports using a convenient report button.

Great App A True Caller That Blocks Spam and Enhances Communication

I have been using Truecaller for a few months now and I am very happy with it. It is a great app that helps me identify and block spam calls and messages. It also shows me the name and location of the caller, even if they are not in my contacts. I find this feature very useful and convenient. Truecaller also has other features that I like, such as recording calls, making payments, chatting with other users, and backing up my contacts and call history. The app is easy to use and has a nice interface. It works smoothly on my phone and does not drain my battery. Some people have given negative reviews for Truecaller because they think it is a political or religious app. They claim that it supports or opposes certain parties or groups, or that it violates their privacy or beliefs. I think these are unfair and baseless accusations. Truecaller is a technology app that has nothing to do with politics or religion. It does not collect or share any personal or sensitive information without the user’s consent. It respects the user’s choice and preferences. I think Truecaller is a great app that deserves more positive reviews. It is one of the best apps I have ever used and I recommend it to anyone who wants to avoid spam calls and messages, and have a better communication experience. Truecaller is a true caller indeed!

Don’t use tracks the heck out of you

So yes free but looks at what’s its tracking ? why does it need to track so much . Ive seen other apps that are free that don’t track no where near has much . So there selling your information . Got to be . And the fact the stating that there tracking you and every one is downloading it needs to know there selling your information . That’s how there making there money instead . Nothing in this life is free ! remove this app asap . It doesn’t need to track purchases location and many more , why would it need to !
Tips33
2023-09-06

Waste of Time

The app complicates the job of blocking nuisance callers by adding nonsense features like “your profile” and “see who viewed you!” and “manually update your spam list by tapping this button and watching a 20 second advert screen OR pay £££ to have this done automatically”. Every feature is twisted to allow a monetisation play. Now, monetisation by itself is NOT bad, however the core product here is not good enough quality to warrant being paid for yet, the database of spam callers is far too immature currently to be useful. Developer needs to spend less time thinking of ways to quickly cash in and first spend some hard effort making a useful product. Product first, payday second. Not the other way round!
CraigJPerry
2023-09-01

Really not worth it

Not sure what this actually does.
You have to enter every number into the block caller to stop the calls. That’s no different to just blocking the call on your phone. It can tell you it’s a spam (sometimes) call but doesn’t block it. It still rings. I don’t need an app to tell me it’s spam and not to answer. I can see and decide myself for free.
Really no point to this at all. Scammers using spoof numbers simply bypass the blocked numbers from the scam company.

Filters no Spam, but it does important texts and calls!

This app has actually caused me no end of issues.
Let me be clear I am a free user, and I will not update to being a paid user; if you cannot perform the basic functions well how are you expected to perform the higher functions well.
After having this crap on for months; only today did I realise there was a junk category in my messages and within there was countless messages from my Doctors, HMRC and other important messages, absolutely NONE of which were spam, and ACTUAL spam was getting through so I assumed the spam filter wasn’t working.
Evidently it was but in the complete wrong way.
I am flabbergasted at how terribly implemented this was, actually filtered the most important messages and let the spam come through.
I’ve also uninstalled it for family members and lo and behold they had the same issue, a bunch of texts flooded in that they needed, this was after updated the filter lists manually on multiple occasions so this was not the issue.
And if you tell me this can be fixed with a premium feature: jog on. This is a basic feature implemented which should just work or not be a feature at all, you can’t break our phones and then say I need to pay your prices to fix your app.
At the end of the day, use your block feature, or use phones built in spam lists if it has the feature, this app is janky is hell and cannot recommend it.

Missing feature

It's a great app but I noticed something today that I think would be a great addition.
My phone was downstairs and a call came through to my Apple Watch, I went downstairs to answer on my phone rather than my watch but by the time I got there, it had gone to voicemail. In my call history it showed true caller identifying it as a scam. Now wouldn't it be great if it had said that on my watch?

Still annoying when updated

They still haven’t fixed the issue of the app resetting the message’s connection whenever the app updates.
It’s really annoying to keep manually doing this every time they update their app. It literally disconnects the messages switch so you have to go into settings and deactivate it. I mean how hard can it be to do? Maybe hire better developers?!
ChrisC317
2022-12-15

Good

The app mostly does as it claims. Unfortunately the ability to flag false positives is too cumbersome. For starters, you have to add the number to contact on your phone. But secondly, what are you meant to do with texts from people who replace their number with text. You can’t add those to contacts, so things like messages about medication from ‘Boots’ just go to spam. Not ideal at all.
g3n1u$
2022-12-07

Not needed! They sell your number on!

Spam blockers are free on iPhone. Just go to Settings -> Phone -> Silence Unknown Callers. You won’t be able to receive calls from anyone who is not in your phone book but miles better than these so called ‘spam filters’ that just sell on your mobile number to third parties. Remember companies farm peoples contact details because they can sell them on to others for marketing. The trouble is these companies that buy these details are often foreign companies using a masked U.K. number to tell us hour our network provider has a special deal on.

Best one but no dual sim support

I've been a premium user for years and this app is a must have, hands down. It's be best one around to filter all those scam and useless calls I receive every day. Unfortunately, it covers only one phone number. So if you use two sims like me, you'll be half protected.

App is a mess

Used to be a really good app. Don’t know what’s happened to it. Seems unresponsive and unable to do basic things anymore.
Example: Pull up your blocklist, there’s an arrow next to the number. It does nothing.
Another example: enter a number into the search, if it’s already identified, then you can’t search the web to see what others are saying about it.
It used to all work flawlessly, but now it’s a mess. Don’t know what happened.
It’s a shame because the call blocking and message filtering is ok. Although the ability to change what messages are categorised as junk/ transactions/ promotions would be welcomed. Sometimes important messages get missed. Also, another category for 2FA texts would be good.
AndySMoore
2022-09-05

Useless app

Due to privacy reasons around EU you will never know the name registered for the number you received a call from. This will never happen unless the number is related to a business or a personal number registered in a public list (eg. A doctor/plumber)
The only thing you’ll be showing it’s the network name (that it’s not even correct as this app doesn’t take in consideration number migration between networks) an the country where the number is registered

Cannot get caller ID

I live in Egypt and for few months now, every time I try to get the ID of a calling number , the application add +44 before the egyptian number and cannot identify the caller.

More spam calls and texts since started using it

I’ve seen no evidence that TrueCaller is doing anything. I’ve had some blatant spam texts and calls that have not been identified nor blocked.
I’ve checked their online help and it’s woefully out of date.
I can’t recommend this app. Maybe it works better in some countries but in the UK so far it’s proven to be a waste of money

Scammy t&c’s

They access information from you they don’t even need to operate, have a look through their t&c’s and you basically will find out they have access to pretty much everything you do in your phone, from contacts, to messages and even internet search terms. They also point out they can share that information with anyone they like. This is a fishy app/company, stay away like the plague. You’ve been warned.

Does what it says, but I have one concern.

That app works great, but I’ve yet to understand how one day you can have spam callers blocked equalling 7500 and after an update it’s 7410. What happened to the other 90, did they suddenly stop being spammers? Is something wrong, or are we being fooled in some way?

Do not waste your money!

Loads of calls get through and are not blocked! Despite paying the premium service! Just today, I got a call no name on the number, but when I search it’s in the Truecaller known spam callers! So why the hell didn’t your useless app block it? Instead I had to talk to some moron Indian! Who I might add should be all be shot! From what I understand India has some draconian internet rules! Why not class this as the one under causing offence or harm to India! Because they are! India is now blocked from just about anywhere I can block it! I’m that f-kin sick of them! Now this app!

Better

Initially I gave one star but all the problems seem to have been sorted and the app is working for me as it should it's just a pity that you don't treat premium members a little better by helping them instead of ignoring them but anyway thanks for the work that you put into the app.

Doesn’t work anymore - updated

I bought the premium when it was on offer thinking it would improve the effectiveness. No. It didn’t. Still getting loads of nuisance calls from China. I report and block them all but still they appear as legit calls. I’ve had no updates for a month despite checking often for new ones. Seems like this app is dead in the water.
This was great when I installed it a few years ago. It regularly told me when nuisance calls were coming through. But I can’t remember the last time it told me a call was going to be a nuisance. It’s installed correctly, all the settings are on and it’s updated at least weekly. Yet it’s been many months since it alerts me like it used to do. Thankfully it’s free as I’d be pretty angry if I’d paid for a subscription.

Known issue is still not fixed

Despite having the latest version installed, I still keep being notified that I have Truecaller spam protection turned off - when this is NOT
the case. This has just happened yet again. The notes about the latest version say this issue has been fixed - but I can confirm it definitely has not. The notification eventually disappears when I have gone through the various parts of the app several times, but soon returns. Clearing the cache and restarting my phone makes no difference. Can this issue please be sorted out properly - it is infuriating and ruins what was previously a very good app.

Definitely selling your data

After last update very suddenly i got bombarded by phone calls. It was like hell and beyond imagination. Looks like now we are bound to this app. I hope this app not selling our numbers as well as blocking them.
last comment**Strangely, I wanted to give another chance. It was going fine until an update now they are selling subscriptions even higher price and more random calls with app.

Harassment stopped

I downloaded this app because I had received over 300 call from a withheld number.. in a short time. I switched on the app overnight to allow me to sleep without being disturbed and next morning I was looking at the actual number of the phone behind the harassment. Police are investigating now- thanks Truecaller

Do NOT Download

Please don’t make the same mistake I did. I thought I looked this up properly but obviously not. I read the privacy policy but it seems like a load of crap.
I downloaded this at 8:30 this morning and set it all up as directed. By 9 I had my first nuisance call. Nothing came up to say it was spam, but I knew from the number. At 12 I had another, which I answered because it seemed legit, and around 3 I had a third and then deleted the app.
I’m sure my number was passed on as soon as I allowed the app the permissions required.
Absolutely shocking, save yourself the trouble.

Deletes Messages

I installed the app to try and stop nuisance calls, didn’t seem to help much with that. What it did do is filter my messages and delete messages from unknown senders. Not all messages from unknown senders are spam! I have been all through the settings and there is no way to remove this from my phone, deleting the app still doesn’t get rid of the filter. I have spoken to Apple support who are unable to help and have contacted the developers to no response. Dodgy, do not download!!

Awful app!!

Downloaded this app which is supposed to stop nuisance callers. Soon as i downloaded this app i was immediately bombarded by calls from Maldova, Sierra Leone and Armenia! They only rang my phone for 2-3 rings, they never actually talk, it’s so you’ll probably ring back. Unfortunately when i did they charged me £2.50! Now owe £6 extra on my monthly bill. Please just be aware of this before downloading app.
Still having call’s altho the creator of this app asked for a ln email explaining my issues. No contact back atall! I’m going with they SELL YOUR NUMBER to people which go on to just harass you and charge you money.

Invalid character when creating my profile

Well the only reason I gave this app one star is because there isn’t any less than one star. After reading mix reviews I decided to give it a try. Unless I am very stupid, I tried to create my profile with my first name, last name and finally email address. Not matter what I do it keep giving me error message of invalid characters. So I can not review an app that doesn’t allow me to let me go any further than creating profile. I just an hour ago updated my iPhone to OS14. Could that be a reason? I’ll check and update my review.

Decent but not consistent.

In this day and age it’s almost required to get an app to block spam calls. And for most part this app does the job. Now I do not pay for subscription as I can’t quite tell what the actual benefit for it is. Especially as I do have some issues with inconsistencies in the non paid version. For one example. Yesterday I had a spam caller. Firstly the app did not notify me of it as such. But after a quick google search and app search alike it was confirmed as spam. Secondly. Once I deduced it was spam I immediately blocked the number. Thinking nothing else of it. Problem is. Today I had calls coming through from the exact same number. So the app whilst for most part does the job well. It isn’t water proof and even leaks through numbers you’ve actively blocked. This isn’t the first time it’s happened and most likely not the last.

True call

It really works no more spam callers even see who’s calling and I can check if they are real as I’ve had some right funny idiots ring me and lie who they where and before I bought this I had 9 new different mobile numbers to buy as some stupid person was sending me anything so I got this now I’m happy

Started off good but now it’s not

I have used this app now for quite a while, maybe 2 years and I’m now uninstalling it because many of the great features that used to be standard are now not working or locked behind a pay wall. It hardly does anything at all now apart from relentless pestering for premium and now gold membership which is £180 a year!!! Get a different one. The days of this being a good app are over

Doesn’t work

It probably protects your phone from spammers but I honestly don’t know. Me and my friend are getting no caller ID calls by someone who thinks they’re funny. We wanted to find out who they were so we searched how to find no caller ID numbers and true caller came on our webpage and said that this is the app that you want to use if you want to find your no caller ID so we thought we should try it and it did not work. The most it can do on my phone is ‘protect me from spammers’ there is no option or any way to ding the no caller ID. I’m still keeping the app on my phone just in case it does actually protect you from spammers but if you want it for finding no caller ID I don’t recommend. I just don’t think there is anyway you can actually find them or there number so that’s why I rated it what I rated it.

When it works it’s fine

Update- I know how to block callers, but when I first used this App it showed a small red ‘Spam’ in the caller ID screen so I knew not to answer it. It has not done this once in IOS 13, even though search in App for number shows up as Spam (sometimes 100s of report’s) after I answered it and realised it was Spam.
— end update
I have 2 issues with this. First it does not automatically update lists after I subscribed - I have set the option but after a few days it says it is out of date and needs updating. Secondly it does not always flag the call as spam , but when I search for number in app it says it’s spam.

Not bad

Good for notifying you when the number is known spam caller. Not as intuitive as it could be to report new numbers as spam. £1.99 per month for “auto updating” spam list is a notification for you to press the update button manually. Save your money and just press update button once a day.
Update: The auto update feature (the only thing I want) doesn’t work. I get daily notifications to update then check it and it says it’s up to date. Turn auto update off, suddenly there’s an update! This is great in principle but £2 a month for an auto update feature is a joke.
Save your money and just press update button once a day.
Further update: Spam numbers now come through with no warning. Search the number in True Caller after the call to find it’s marked as spam with hundreds of reports... what’s the point of true caller? People need to know it’s spam beforehand!

No more spam calls!

I kept getting spam calls after somebody used my phone number in a scam survey. I kept getting multiple scam calls a day from many phone numbers and since installing this app yesterday, I have had no spam calls! Brilliant free service!

Warning no longer works!

App used to work great but found that it no longer displays spam calls (even though they’re logged when you manually search for them in the app). After doing some digging to find out why it appears that Apple has limited the amount of information that they access on your phone thus spam calls are no longer displayed. I don’t particularly have an issue with Apple protecting my privacy more but it does make this app pretty useless. What’s more you could end up upgrading to premium or gold (at a huge one off cost!) thinking this would improve the app but it won’t. Apple should therefore remove the app as it simply doesn’t do what it claims but is happy for people to waste money on it! The app will only display a callers detail if they’re also using the app. I’ve had some idiotic sales calls in the past but I can’t see any spammers registering for this app!

Thank you

After receiving constant calls all day long from insurance, PPI and accident not your fault claim calls,l I added this app. It’s fantastic. I noticed some calls had attempted to ring me but had been automatically blocked by the app. When one does sneak through it warns you on screen that it’s a possible spammer. Thank you for this app it’s great.

Adds 100's of SPAM nos to your contacts list!

Great concept, though I was amazed at the lack on info in the app description that does not tell you about the amount of telephone numbers that True Caller adds to your Contacts List!
Each and EVERY number that TrueCaller identifies as SPAM is automatically added to your phone’s contact list - presumably so that the next time the SPAM number rings you, it flashes up as a SPAM number alert - but you get no NO WARNING that your contact list is exponentially growing in size. NOT COOL.
In my case, there were so many numbers added to my contacts list that I genuinely had REAL dificulty in finding my own personal contacts because of the amount of SPAM number added by the app, and it took me over 15mins to manually remove them all AFTER I deleted the app! Yes, when you delete the app the identified SPAM numbers REMAIN ON YOUR PHONE and you have to delete them all individually yourself. NOT COOL AT ALL!!!
I would only ever download the app again if there was some way to hide the SPAM/blocked numbers, otherwise I'll be giving it a wide, WIDE swerve!!!

Good but struggling here

I love the app. In fact it’s a godsend because I don’t get plagued like I used to. However when I try and share a number with Truecaller it keeps telling me to log in with Truecaller and then it doesn’t search for the number at all, thus meaning I have to manually search for it. Help please 🤷‍♀️

Unsure

As per the other bad reviews, I also don’t understand this app, it’s put a HUGE list under spam of numbers who have never called me, mostly being debt collection agencies..
considering on my actual phone list I’ve never missed a call or had a call from a debt collection agency even the least I’m not in debt.
Very confusing. Only decent thing is it tells you the company’s. now will have to spend my time tomorrow to see if these agency’s are actually trying to get hold of me.

Don’t work 😫

Hi, I was happy to used this app..... but now when new version 9.10.0 install then I can’t see my friends online status, in a call or even when the came on online:( now I’m very upset about the new version..... I wish they will fix this problem ASAP.......😭😭😭

Mr Suspicious...

I’ve had those annoying spam callers on my landline but never on my mobile, that is until I started using Truecaller. Since installing the app I get a nuisance call every few days, which to be fair, is identified by Truecaller. However, If I delete the app, all the nuisance calls appear to stop! Reinstall and they start again!! Now I’m not a conspiracy theorist but one might assume that the authors of this app may be generating a few of these calls, that do get detected, just to justify the app... maybe??

Check Privacy Policy

When reading this review please bear in mind I have not looked at the functionality, only the privacy policy which was enough for me to get it off my device asap. Here's one excerpt:
"You acknowledge and agree that any Contact Information that You share with Truecaller is submitted for publication in the Truecaller database, for which a Publishing Certificate (Sw: utgivningsbevis) has been issued. Such Publishing Certificate provides for constitutional protection under the Swedish Fundamental Law on Freedom of Expression, see the Terms of Service"
They also gather device information, IP address, etc. Please read it thoroughly before deciding to use this.

No more pointless phone calls

No more pointless phone calls as TrueCaller is on to them stopping you answering ‘sales’ cold callers, PPI call after call and insurance companies offering not such a great deal once you look into it. I have got many friends, family and work colleagues more peace!!

Not impressed

Update:
Why does Truecaller require read write access to photos? I have no confidence in this app. Please read original comments below.
It was my phone service provider who suggested this app as a result of a complaint about the number of spam calls being received.
Having installed the app the number of spam calls has increased exponentially.
It s my personal opinion that there is a working relationship between true caller and the agencies generating the spam calls.
Spam Calls continue to be received and when added to Truecaller manually, Truecaller then gives you a total number of previous reports for the number. Why oh why doesn’t the app simply block the call?
Why not add the ability to block by country codes we could then bin the majority of the calls being generated from Africa.
I also believe that mobile phone service providers should be investing in removing spam calls through their vast resources and technology.

Was good. Suddenly never had so much Spam

Last couple of weeks or so I’ve suddenly been getting ridiculous amounts of spam phone calls. They flash up red as spam calls, but why can’t the app just stop them being able to call me?
When I go into the call to block it, it’s one on an extremely long list of calls and when I eventually manage to scroll to the bottom of the list, it says blocked. Yet all these numbers are still able to call me. I don’t answer unknown numbers so telling me it’s spam isn’t helpful. Stopping them ringing would be!

Very good useful app..BUT..

I really like using this app as it tells me information about the corner BUT.. it's really annoying putting the true caller information over the top of my phone dial, so I have to press the little cross to cancel the true caller box before I can hang up...WHY...?

What to say

Truecaller does a good enough job it when spam numbers call you it warns you which is good so you no longer have to pick up on them spam numbers and have to talk to some person about removing you from the system Which they don't they have multi numbers on one company I've tried removing my contact information but yet they still call thanks to Truecaller I can see who is calling me and what others say
Would I recommend this app to my friends and family I would just remember to keep updateing the spam numbers list
