TRAI: When you receive a call from an unknown number on your smartphone and no one’s number is stored there, your initial thought is probably, “Who could it be?” You don’t need to worry if this keeps happening to you because telecom companies all over India have been ordered by the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) to implement calling name presentation in the event that an unknown caller calls. Thus, their name will appear on your phone’s screen.
Third-Party Apps and Caller Identification
Smartphone users use third-party apps—many of which use Two Caller—to learn more about unknown calls they receive on their phones. When installing, third-party apps request a lot of permissions in order to use their features, which include contact details, a phone gallery, a speaker, a camera, and call history. These third-party apps won’t function if you don’t grant permission to all of them, and if you do, there’s a chance that your private information will be compromised.
TRAI’s Directive to Telecom Providers
All telecom providers in the nation have been instructed by TRAI to implement the calling name presentation feature. Following that, the nation’s mobile service providers began their pilot program. If this trial is successful, the calling name presentation feature will be rolled out nationwide, according to TRAI. After that, you won’t require any outside apps to find out information about unknown numbers.
Testing in Haryana
To test the calling name presentation feature, TRAI has chosen the smallest circle in the nation. Following that, the Haryana mobile service providers will begin testing the calling name presentation feature. Information indicates that Haryana will begin testing the calling name presentation feature this month in accordance with TRAI guidelines.
