Truecaller only generates a helpful visual notification with the caller's information. If a blocked number attempts to call you, the caller hears a busy signal and you hear nothing. Read Our avast! Mobile Security & Antivirus (for Android) Review Unlike other call blocking apps, Truecaller cannot block partial numbers or whole area codes-a feature I really missed. You will, however, have to enter the Settings menu and toggle on SMS blocking. While PrivacyStar used multiple lists for its to screen unwanted numbers, Truecaller keeps it simple with a single blacklist to which you add numbers. While I was able to eventually make the app work on my Samsung Galaxy S4 ($199.88 at Amazon), this wonky setup process did not inspire confidence. This also didn't work, but the app suddenly completed setup and let me into the app without further warning. For some reason, my activation SMS never so I tried calling Truecaller as prompted. The first time you start up Truecaller, you'll be walked through some features before the app attempts to send your phone a confirmation message via SMS to confirm the phone is legit. It will keep blocked numbers (and some spammers) at bay, but everything else is iffy. The free version of the app (premium accounts cost $2.99 per month and $14.99 for six months) also has a host of advanced features, but don't expect too much from this little app. Truecaller sells itself as a social, crowd-sourced call and SMS blocking app, boasting over 25 million users.
