Truecaller has rolled out its voicemail feature for Android users in India, marking a significant expansion of its call management tools in one of its largest markets. The new feature allows callers to leave voice messages when a call goes unanswered, addressing a long-standing gap in India’s mobile communication ecosystem where native voicemail adoption has been limited.

How Truecaller Voicemail Works

The voicemail feature activates automatically when a user is unable to take a call or chooses to decline it. Callers are prompted to leave a voice message, which is then stored securely within the Truecaller app. Users can listen to these messages directly from the app interface without relying on carrier-based voicemail systems.

Designed for India’s Call-Heavy Market

India is known for its high volume of spam, business, and missed calls. Truecaller says the voicemail feature is designed to help users prioritize important communications, especially from unknown or first-time callers. Combined with caller identification, users can quickly decide whether a voicemail requires a callback.

Premium-First Rollout Strategy

Initially, the voicemail feature is being offered to Truecaller Premium subscribers on Android. The company has indicated that broader availability may follow based on user feedback and adoption rates. This strategy aligns with Truecaller’s ongoing efforts to add more value to its paid subscription tiers.

Privacy and User Control

Truecaller emphasizes that voicemail recordings are encrypted and accessible only to the account holder. Users can also manage voicemail settings, delete messages, and control who can leave voicemails, reinforcing the company’s focus on user privacy and transparency.

Strengthening Truecaller’s Communication Suite

With voicemail now added, Truecaller continues to evolve from a caller ID app into a full-fledged communication management platform. The feature complements existing tools such as call recording, spam blocking, SMS filtering, and AI-powered call screening.
