YOGYAKARTA - In the era of technology that continues to develop, many things can be done using a smartphone. One of them is to trace the owner of an unknown number entered into your cell phone.

The reason, lately many people get phone calls or short messages from unknown numbers. It is also very disturbing, because you do not know who the owner of the number is.

It could be that this is one of the modes of fraud that has recently become increasingly widespread. However, if the number turns out to be your relative or someone who provides important information, it would be detrimental to ignore it.

Therefore, many developers then create features or applications that can be used to identify phone numbers that enter your smartphone or cell phone.

One of the phone number identification applications is Whoscall. The application can identify unknown calls such as the name of the owner of the number.

Therefore, the user as the recipient of the call or message, can choose to respond to it, or choose to ignore it if you do not know the person.

In this article, the VOI team has summarized how to use the Whoscall application, to find out the owner of an unknown number that is making a phone call or text message to your number.

How to Use the Whoscall App

To use the Whoscall application, the first step you can take is to download the application first through the Play Store or App Store.

After the installation, the application will automatically be installed on your device. Every incoming call will be identified first.

This way, you will know the identity of the person calling you and decide whether to accept it or ignore it.

In addition, Whoscall also allows users to block certain numbers based on keywords recorded in the offline database in the application.

Thus, you can avoid calls from numbers owned by certain companies or certain people.

However, blocking using keywords can only be done if Whoscall has a database of the keywords you want to block.

Unfortunately, most of the keywords contained in the Whoscall database are numbers registered with companies or agencies, so for personal users the database is still limited.

Even so, you can still use it because it can help you identify incoming calls to your phone. Although limited, but the Whoscall database is quite large.

That's how to use the Whoscall application that you can use to identify every number that comes into your phone. Therefore, the user can decide to accept or ignore it.
