How can i tell when someone i call is on another call android

Technology has made everything quick and perhaps more comfortable, to a certain extent. Social media, online call apps and trackers have all combined to allow smartphone users access features that were seemingly unthinkable a decade back. With leaps in how data operates, oddity in demands related to technology too has increased manifold. Search online and you will find users looking for answers to stuff such as how to know number busy without calling.

How to Know Someone is Busy on Another call?

While it is pretty simple that in order to know when someone is busy on another call, you simply pick your phone and dial! In fact, on Whatsapp, as soon as you connect a call, user busy is displayed as a clear message in-app itself. However, if the person is not busy elsewhere on call, you get to see “Ringing” on screen.

  • With third party applications such as Truecaller though, you can simply enter a valid number to check if it is busy. On keying in a number, you get to see a red busy icon beside the same. Therefore, it is an easy way to know someone is busy on call without you calling that number at all. This answers the popular question, “how to know number busy without calling?”

  • The main concern with Truecaller though, is its intrusive feature and privacy concerns users have had over time. However, it is mostly accurate in detecting names linked to specific numbers.
  • You need to accept that you are feeding your number into an app that lets users view details. However, deactivating Truecaller erases your data and no one can detect your details via your number if you do not have an account.
  • Do not confuse this with ringing and calling features on the texting app though. Calling is displayed on screen when you are attempting to call someone but there is an internet non connectivity. Ringing signifies that the call has gone through.
  • However, despite all the encryption, WhatsApp can still trace back calls and texts using source code. Then again, this is not as easy or commonly accessible as you might imagine.

Getting Out Of Being Blocked

One interesting feature of WhatsApp is once you delete and reinstall the app on your existing number, you get unblocked automatically on another user’s list. Even if the latter has blocked your number, reinstallation of WhatsApp does away with the same.

While people are concerned if so many apps actually hampers privacy, there is a chunk of users looking to find newer means to find out how to know number busy without calling.

When a person I call is already engaged in another conversation my iPhone doesn't signal an engaged tone or call waiting message. It just keeps giving me a ring ring tone. My nokia phone did. If I know the person I am ringing is already on a call, rather than keep annoying them by letting the phone ring, I would hang up and try again in a few minutes. Even an engaged signal would be better than nothing!!! Was hoping it would be fixed with new iPhone 4 technology. Doesn't appear so!! How dissapointing that something so simple that my nokia phone did iPhone can't

I understand what you mean. If using a Nokia phone, when you call someone already engaged in another phone conversation, a "beep" with a little message (something as "waiting call" or similar) informs you that the called person is already engaged. With iPhone, no message or beep are generated, so that, it rings normally...

By my experience, it depends from the phone, and not from the Carrier!

Surely if the phone keeps ringing that tells you they're not on another call? Either they cannot hear the phone, it's not conevnient to answer..or they know it's you 🙂

If the phone goes straight to voicemail then they could on another call, or the phone's not switched on, or they have no signal. I don't think there is a surefire way to know they're on another call.
