Truecaller Auto-Block Spam feature
Truecaller’s new Auto-Block Spam feature will allow iPhone users to automatically block spam callers without any hassle. However, to use Auto-Block Spam functionality, users will have to activate the feature directly from the Truecaller app. Once activated, Truecaller will be able to identify numbers reported as spam and the users can decline any incoming fraudulent calls which will be instantly blocked. In some instances, it may also block regular numbers, therefore users can choose the options between “Top spammers” or “ All spammers.”
