Trust me, this is extremely useful if someone is trying to harass you by making unsolicited, unwanted and/or blank calls. So, you can imagine how popular this app is in India. Recently, Kari Krishnamurthy, Truecaller’s vice-president of growth & partnerships in Asia, Middle East & Africa, said that “over half of our 70 million users are in India, and we are adding 110,000 users a day here”. If you want to check out other such tools, we have compiled a list of the best caller name announcer apps and the Google Phone app now supports call recording natively on some devices.Are You Getting Calls from International Unknown Numbers? Meanwhile, we also covered how you can delete or deactivate your Truecaller account, so check that out if that’s what you are looking for. Do note that the company says it “will automatically deny profiles which contain names such as “Private number or Unknown name” or anything that might be considered vulgar.” In that case, Truecaller recommends that you clear the search entry of your number in the app.Īndroid users can do that simply by going into their phone’s Settings – > Apps -> Truecaller -> Clear Cache, and then try again. It’s also possible that your phone has locally saved the old information. If you have recently updated your name, Truecaller says it might take them up to 24-48 hours to change the information.


What to Do If Truecaller Isn’t Updating Your Name The update might not happen immediately, so check back in a couple of days, and you should see the new name. Though Truecaller doesn’t let you update your personal information from the account settings on its website, you can use this trick to change your name. Finally, review the changes and hit “Save”. Now, you can also choose whether you would like it to be displayed as a personal or a business number.
