Truecaller Launches Lite App in India Offering Caller ID and Spam BlockingPreviousNext

Truecaller has launched Truecaller Lite in India, a lightweight Android app of about 10 MB designed for phones with limited storage and up to 4 GB RAM. The app offers caller ID and spam call blocking using the same database and privacy standards as the main Truecaller app. Released ahead of the busy festive season, it aims to protect users from increased scam calls such as fake deliveries and fraud, while using less memory and data to suit devices with constrained resources.
