Truecaller Bets Big With Pricey ‘Truecaller Gold’ Subscription at Rs 5000 Per Year

Nov. 24, 2018



If you’ve ever heard of Truecaller, you already would know it’s the ‘go-to’ app forcaller identificationand spam detection. It solves a major pain point for someone who receives a lot of calls during the day, however, the freemium model does come with its annoyances – especially ads.

Premium Gold gives you all existing premium features along witha tinge of gold to help you stand out among other callers.

Mr. Kok may have a point there as some of those who I ringed up did ask me about the gold-colored Caller ID, assuming the calls were important. However, I’m just a regular Truecaller user who didn’t see much merit in this feature.

I was using the Realme 2 Pro, running Android 8.1 Oreo, for my test but we switched to Nokia 7 Plus with Android 9 Pie to see if Treucaller’s handy call recording feature works here or not. And well,Google’s restrictions for on-device audio recordingappears to be interfering with Truecaller’s plans, who says it is “investigating if it is possible at all” to bringcall recording to Android Pie.
