The new feature offers AI-powered transcription in 12 Indian languages and advanced call-handling options for premium subscribers, enhancing accessibility and privacy for missed calls.

Truecaller has launched a new voicemail feature for Android users in India, allowing callers to leave messages when a recipient misses a call. The tool is available free for all users, while premium subscribers can access an AI-assisted version that offers advanced call-handling capabilities, including answering calls and interacting with callers automatically. The voicemail messages can also be transcribed into text in 12 Indian languages, enabling users to read them without returning the call.

How the Voicemail feature works

To use the feature, users need to enable call forwarding on their mobile number. Voicemails appear in a separate tab within the app, and users can listen to or read the messages. Truecaller emphasizes privacy, assuring that all voicemails are stored locally on the device and not uploaded to any servers. The AI transcription relies on downloaded language packs, giving users complete control over their data. For the best experience, the company recommends updating to the latest version of the app.

Premium features and future plans

The premium version of voicemail offers additional functionalities such as AI answering and personalized interactions with callers. Truecaller is initially launching this feature in India, with plans to expand to other regions after testing. This move also comes as Truecaller faces competition from the Indian government’s CNAP system, which provides built-in caller identification and works independently of apps.

By integrating voicemail with AI-powered transcription, Truecaller aims to strengthen its portfolio, offering users more convenience, privacy, and smarter call management.
