If the phone number is not stored in the smartphone, the identity of the caller can be easily known through the Truecaller app. Even calls from specific numbers can be blocked with the help of the app. And so many people use Truecaller app to find out the source of unwanted or annoying phone calls from unknown numbers. This time, Apple is going to introduce the caller ID feature like the Truecaller app to prevent spam calls on the iPhone.
Spam call
According to Apple's information, various organizations can already add phone numbers, names and logos to this facility called 'Business Caller ID'. As a result, iPhone users can easily know the identity of the person or organization calling from an unknown number. Through this, the number of frauds will be reduced by providing opportunities to identify spam calls made with fake identities in the name of various organizations.
Apple's Business Caller ID feature will support iPhone as well as Apple Maps, Messages, Siri and Wallet. As a result, businesses can easily reach information to their customers. Businesses of any size can register for Apple's Business Caller ID for free. The Business Caller ID facility will be launched early next year.
Both online and offline businesses can register for Business Caller ID. This ID will enable a unique verification system for businesses in the Apple ecosystem. This Business ID facility is available in countries where Apple Pay is available. In this regard, David Dorn, the senior director of Apple's Internet Software and Service Product Division, said, "We have planned to launch Business Caller ID so that businesses can easily communicate their information to Apple users."
