COVID-19 caller tune to go off your phones soon: Reports

New Delhi, Mar 28: In a major relief to the mobile users, the Central government is said to be thinking of dropping the pre-COVID-caller-tune from phones. As per the report surfacing around social media, there will not be a caller tune on COVID-19 and it is going to stop soon.

 

 

Reports suggest that official sources are thinking of dropping the pre-call announcements from phones after nearly two years of raising awareness about COVID-19. However, there is no exact date and time known for when the caller tune will stop.

 

The caller tune was introduced nearly two years back when the pandemic raged across the country. The caller tune had the voice of superstar Amitabh Bachchan in which he lists out safety measures.

 

 

Later it was replaced by a female voice about the COVID-19 vaccination drive. "The new year has brought a new ray of hope in the form of vaccines. Vaccines developed in India are safe, effective, and will provide immunity," the caller tune said. The latest Covid-19 caller tune message talks about India’s vaccination milestone.

 

This decision meant that the calls took a longer time to connect. Many had started to rely on WhatsApp calls just to avoid this caller tune from playing every time.
