Truecaller and BLU team up to integrate improved dialer into smartphones
Truecaller and BLU have announced a partnership that will bring Truecaller’s innovative dialer to all BLU phones in 2016, replacing the stock phone application that ships with Android.
Truecaller offers some features that you simply won’t get in the stock dialer, including caller ID, a spam filter, and excellent search functionality. These features have helped Truecaller reach 200 million users, and partnerships like these will help them extend that even further.
BLU has agreed to use the smart dialer app for 12 months, but they aren’t the first phone manufacturer to agree to a deal like this; Indian OEM Intex also utilizes Truecaller for their devices.
How do you feel about OEMs replacing stock apps with third-party apps like this? Do you think it’s an easy way to add functionality, or bloat that’s tacked onto Android?
