Solving a Major Pain Point
From the very beginning, Truecaller has focused on solving a global problem that smartphone users face daily when looking for better ways to identify, manage and connect with people. Over the years, Truecaller has witnessed extraordinary organic growth owing to its innovative, and consistent efforts towards creating a better communication experience across all operating systems keeping in mind the needs and wants of a dedicated community of users. This led to the addition of the Truedialer and Truemessenger products to the family of apps designed to change the way people communicate daily.
Truecaller has developed groundbreaking strategic partnerships to increase touch points with consumers, including Microsoft, Tata DoCoMo, Micromax, Twitter, to name a few. The company plans to continue to develop these partnerships and interact with the ecosystem, and looks forward to future announcements bringing the Truecaller family of applications to users’ phones.
