Truecaller has launched a new AI-powered feature that allows users to get rid of spam calls. The new feature, which is part of the ‘Max’ update, blocks all calls that are not from an approved contact or are deemed to be spam calls by its artificial intelligence algorithm.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

According to a report by TechCrunch, the new feature will block all calls that the AI considers to be spam, even if they are not listed in the company’s database. Previously, however, the decision to block a particular number was based on how it was listed in the company’s database, as well as the individual’s proactive screening.<\/p>\n

Notably, the new feature is only available to Truecaller Premium users on Android, as Apple doesn’t allow Truecaller and other caller ID services to analyse and block a spam call directly. However, Truecaller’s Vice President of Search, Kunal Dua, told TechCrunch that the underlying system is expected to improve over time with more spam call data.<\/p>\n
