Last seen depends on:
Many users like to know who is free and call them to prevent time and effort in calling again and again to that user. The last seen or availability feature depends on the person’s usage of the app or on internet availability. It does not mean that the last call of any user. When a user is connected with a stable internet connection and uses the truecaller application, this app shows the last seen of that user.

If you have not installed the truecaller application on your mobile phone yet, then you will be unable to check the last status of other users, and other users also cannot check your availability status. To enjoy this outstanding feature, you have to install the truecaller application.

Ios users:
Ios users can also check the last seen of any user. Android users cannot see the last seen of an ios user, but ios users can check the last seen of all Android users. This is because of mobile development features. Ios devices come in the market with more advanced features and premium facilities.
