Huawei Flagship Smartphones to Come With Truecaller Preloaded From September

Truecaller
on Friday announced it has partnered with Huawei. As a part of this
collaboration, Huawei's flagship phones will now come preloaded with the
Truecaller app, starting with the Honor 8.
"Truecaller will be rolled out on Huawei mobile phones in America, Middle East & North Africa, South East Asia & India by end of September 2016," the company said in its blog on Friday.
Truecaller said the app has optimised to work seamlessly with all the devices it will come preloaded on. Apart from making calls, the app will also let users search for numbers, block spam calls, check availability, and call duration.
The company also highlighted in its blog that four months after the integration of its Truedialer app and its dialler features into the main Truecaller app, around half billion calls are being made per month through the inbuilt dialler in the Truecaller app.
"Our vision of how the dialler should naturally evolve - with features like caller Availability, Caller ID, and smart call history, provide a gateway for user's to fully communicate with each other at the right time and to the right person," Truecaller said in the post.
Truecaller rolled out an update last month for iOS that added important features to the app like Smart Call History and a built-in dialler that allowed users to make calls from within the app. However, the iOS app - currently at version 7.0 - still lacks an important functionality, there is still no really Live Caller ID feature identical to the one available on Android.
In an emailed statement, Nami Zarringhalam, co-founder & Chief Strategy Officer at Truecaller, said,"Our partnership with Huawei is a big milestone and is the first of its kind that has only scratched the surface of the immense potential that is yet to be discovered with Truecaller."
George Zhao, President of Honor, said, "As we were planning the launch of our flagship device Honor 8, we were looking for partners who can truly redefine the user experience, Truecaller was an obvious choice to help improve the native calling functions. They provide an indispensable service for millions of users each day. We are joining hands to ensure that respective brands get the best of both worlds.
