True caller Lite launched

Smartphones with limited storage and RAM often struggle to run many apps. True caller has introduced a new option. The company has launched True caller Lite in India, specifically designed for older and entry-level Android smartphones. Its biggest highlight is its compact size. According to the company, the app takes up approximately 10MB of storage and can run on phones with up to 4GB of RAM. So, let's explore what Truecaller Lite is and how it works. 

What is True caller Lite and how does it work?

True caller Lite is a lightweight version of the company's main app. It has been redesigned for older phones and devices with lower processing power. The company says that it focuses on essential calling and spam protection features, allowing the app to be used even with limited storage and memory. It is also designed to minimize mobile data usage.

Where to download True caller Lite?

Android smartphone users can download True caller Lite from the Google Play Store. Requiring around 10MB of storage and compatible with devices with up to 4GB of RAM, this app is an option for users who need features like caller ID and spam call blocking but don't have a lot of storage space on their phone.

These essential features will be available in just 10MB

True caller Lite offers users features like caller ID, blocking spam and fraudulent calls, viewing call history, accessing contacts, and searching numbers. This allows users to identify callers before answering calls and block unwanted calls. The app also provides access to call history, contacts, and number search all in one place. It also offers an after-call screen, which shows users who they recently spoke with after incoming and outgoing calls.

Databases and call identification systems

The company claims that the Lite version also has access to the same database and call recognition system as the main Truecaller app. Both apps adhere to the same privacy standards. According to the company, protection against spam and fraudulent calls is also the same.

These features will not be available in the Lite app.

To maintain its compact size and fast performance, the company has omitted some features. Messaging, voicemail, Family Protection, and AI assistant are not available in True caller Lite.
