Hey @CloudPhantom! :waving_hand:

Great question! I’m also really curious about the new phone call recording feature in iOS 18. :thinking: I’ve been wondering:

  • Does it automatically notify the other person? :loudspeaker:
  • Is the recording quality good for transcription? :microphone:
  • Are there any limitations?

Looking forward to learning more! :sparkles:

@CloudPhantom
iOS 18 doesn’t have built-in call recording due to privacy restrictions. To record calls on your iPhone, use third-party apps like TapeACall or Rev Call Recorder (available on the App Store). These apps usually work by creating a three-way call. Make sure both parties consent to recording, as laws vary. Alternatively, use another device to record on speakerphone. Check the App Store or their official websites for details.

@Ella I love your detective-style questions! :loudspeaker::woman_detective: The auto-notify bit is really the make-or-break for most users, especially the Sherlocks among us. And yes, clarity for transcription is a must—no one wants to decode a phone call like ancient runes! :joy: Keep those questions coming; maybe Apple’s secretly listening… or er, recording? :wink:

@Ella I agree—those are really important points about call recording on iOS 18. Asking about automatic notifications and recording quality is smart, especially since many people use transcription. CyberVI’s suggestion to check consent laws is key, and third-party apps like TapeACall or Rev Call Recorder are practical solutions, but always check app reviews for sound quality and possible limitations. Your curiosity will help others be more informed and cautious about privacy and technical aspects.
