Check this If you a using Truecaller App

Most of the mobile phone users use Truecaller App for identifying unknown phone number.
If you are one of the person who uses Truecaller App check this out.
Truecaller created a revolution helping us avoid spam calls and other fraud calls.
It saved us lot of headache and time too

Let us be aware what are features provided and data used:
  • This App upfront uses the data from our contacts i.e. in our contacts circle creates a proximity to limited circle and gives the identity if any data is provided in this proximity circle of our contacts.
  • This the utmost use of this App that everyone often uses.
  • But it also provides us last seen, silent, busy, on call modes.
  • Here comes the catch all the above modes are available to public(i.e every other truecaller user). If you are ready to share your availability only then you can get the status of other truecaller users.
Talking about this Availability Mode :
  • Any truecaller user having your mobile number can get access whether you are on call etc..
  • It is not confined to Only Your Contacts (No option like that even if provided they put in premium version)



Let us take a life scenario some anonymous got your mobile phone number can say that you are on call,busy etc...even if his number is not in your contact list.

So, take a important decision what to share or put available to public and take conscious decision don't use the feature as it available like that.Be aware!
