The Google Phone app can tell you soon why a company calls you
It appears that the Google Phone app has received a new Call Verified feature, which will show you a company name , logo, and why you are being called. The feature news first appeared on an Android Police help page for Google.
This feature relies on companies that provide Google directly with their telephone number, telephone number and the reason why their call is named. The mobile app can have a checked call badge if the information matches up.
It's a feature that could be really useful not only to find out who's calling you but also to know if a call is even worthwhile.
I 'm glad to collect the phone if my bank calls to let me know, for example, about a question on my account, and this feature may help weaken marketing calls and other spam.
Although Google claims that the function is enabled by default, its support page includes a range of limitations.
Firstly, authenticated calls rely on companies pro-actively supplying Google with details, which ensures that not all calls without the authenticated badge are spam.
Google also says that the service is only available on the Google Phone app, so it is not available on all Android phones. You also need to add to your Google account your telephone number.
Google promises that it would delete the explanation for the call to be checked "within minutes."
