TRAI DND app is available as a free download via the App Store.
Signalling the end of the standoff between Apple and India’s telecom regulator, the TRAI DND app is finally available for download via Apple’s App Store. Like its Android counterpart, the TRAI DND app for iPhone lets users register for DND (Do Not Disturb) to stop pesky calls and text messages (at least on paper), modify their DND preferences, and even report offending calls or text messages.
In July this year, TRAI released regulations that would’ve required telcos to « derecognise » devices that didn’t permit functioning of a mobile app developed by the regulator (or an entity approved by the regulator) designed to let consumers change their communication settings and also report entities that violate them. In simple words, TRAI wanted to ban use of devices that didn’t allow installation and use of its DND app.
