The Android operating system is blessed with many useful applications. Some are meant to prevent friends and relatives from snooping into your smartphone or tablet, while few others can be used to boot your device faster. There are many other useful applications for various purposes which we have listed below.
Truecaller
Caller ID system helped only in identifying the numbers but the Truecaller app goes one step ahead - it shows the name and location of the number. Truecaller's service is driven by a large and verified mobile phone community that helps in identification of the caller. It is thus a very useful application for girls (who are often harassed by anti-social elements) and for those who get irked by tele-marketeers (perhaps most of us fall into this category).
With Truecaller, a user can see the name of the caller with the number and also approximate location using 3G or WiFi connection. Apart from identification, Truecaller can also block numbers so as to avoid getting unwanted calls and SMS es.
Another interesting feature in Truecaller app is that one can perform reverse number look up for mobile and even landline numbers (you enter a phone number in the Truecaller and it will show you the owner's name). You can also connect the Truecaller app with social networks like Facebook and Twitter, and in turn let other's find you (you can also locate other person's social network ID by their phone number if they have done the same). Free version of Truecaller comes with advertisements while the paid version doesn't have advertisements.
