TRAI DND App: This app also provides the facility to register complaints regarding spam calls or messages. You can file a complaint in just a few seconds and even track its status in real-time.

TRAI DND App: If you are fed up with the daily barrage of spam calls and unwanted messages, an easy solution is now available. The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) has introduced a specialized DND (Do Not Disturb) app that allows you to decide exactly which calls and messages you wish to receive—and which ones you don't. This app enables users to register their mobile numbers and grants them complete control over commercial messages.

How Does the DND App Work?

TRAI's app offers users two distinct options. The first is 'Full DND,' under which all types of promotional calls and SMS are completely blocked. The second option is 'Partial DND,' where you can personally select which categories of messages you wish to receive—such as banking alerts, promotional offers, or other services.


Furthermore, the app provides a facility to register complaints against specific spam calls or messages. You can file a complaint within seconds and track its resolution status in real-time. This ensures the entire process remains transparent and instills confidence in the users.

Millions of Connections Terminated

TRAI has stated that strict action is being taken against violators of the regulations through this system. In 2025 alone, approximately 184,000 telecom connections were disconnected for engaging in telemarketing activities without proper registration. A key feature of this app is that it blocks only promotional and unwanted messages; essential service-related messages—such as banking OTPs or critical updates—will continue to reach you just as they did before.

How to Download the App?

If you, too, wish to rid yourself of spam, you can easily download this app. Android users can install it from the Google Play Store, while iPhone users can download it from the Apple App Store. In today's digital age, spam calls and fake messages are not only a nuisance but also often lead to fraud. In such a scenario, this app acts as a robust protective shield, enabling you to keep your mobile device secure.
