Trai, Apple reach middle ground to solve dispute over do-not-disturb app, says report
Aug 8, 2018 12:31 AM

Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (Trai) and Apple may have reached an understanding to end the dispute over the do-not-disturb (DND) app and the iPhone maker's reluctance to support the said app on its devices, reported The Economic Times.

Apple will be including about 75 percent of the features that are on Trai's DND app in its new operating system to be launched in September, the report said.

The iPhone maker, however, is sticking to its privacy policy that doesn’t allow access to user call logs and messages, the daily said, adding that Trai seems to be satisfied with the deal as it will allow subscribers to do what DND app does – flag unwanted calls and messages.

“Consumers of mobiles and smartphones should be able to complain about unsolicited commercial communications. It is not necessary that Trai’s DND app is allowed – any operating system can develop their own application,” Trai chairman RS Sharma told the paper.
