Do either of those record?
Do either of these record? It's like one thing I need. ..
Google killed call recording apps a year ago iirc
Call recording aside, the best combo I can recommend is simple dialer + yet another call blocker
I still have it on my GrapheneOS Pixel
I see the setting, but how do you actually begin recording a call?
For me, on a phone call, there just is a button to start.
Still have call recording? Using what app?
It's just in the main calling app, the standard 'phone' one. Possibly a Graphene exclusive.
I have Graphene. The call app is the standard AOSP one and it doesn't have recording capability.
The standard phone app on GrapheneOS does support it.
I just looked and saw options in the settings. But how do you use it?
E: wow, okay, so you have to place a call, wait for them to pick up, and then scroll down into an invisible menu and there is a record button...
You just press "record call" it's one of the six buttons over the "end call" button. Not invisible at all
Mine has 7 buttons and the 7th one "record call" falls off the bottom of the menu.
Huh, did you change any settings? Maybe we are just using different phones and it looks different on different screen sizes.
I'm using the Pixel 4a which has a pretty small screen
No, I have:
- Mute
- keypad
- speaker
- RTT
- add call
- hold
And then I have to scroll down in that menu to find the record call button.
I don’t have RTT
? For me it's right there, not sure what to say.
That really sucks to hear... I guess I am rooting my device sigh this is what happens if corporates take control of foss projects
Are there apps that can record calls on rooted phones?
But...are Magisk modules safe?
I trusted them for years. But, imo, if your rooting your device what your looking for is more functionality and not more safety.
Well, not really. Once was like that and I used to change ROM, but I got fed up of all the problems, so now I'm OK with the Pixel stock ROM. By the way, my bad, the Xposed modules where not so safe to use. Thanks. I'll try the module.Clos
Would love to see any suggestions to this as well. I'm currently using Cube ACR for call recording but after some Android OS changes the recording qualify for the incoming line is horrible.
my hong kong infinix phone has this feature included in the main caller app.
Simple dialer kinda sucks if you have two SIMs. You can't set default sim per contact. I just end up using the default dialer.
I use Simple Dialer myself. It's available on F-Droid.
oops someone else already posted that
I've tried this but alas No use, Both the receivers and my voice is not being recorded
Welefon and Simple Dialer
Simple Dialer
It doesn't have recording capability?...
