How to Record a Call on iPhone or Android Phone for Free


There are many reasons why you might want to record a call. It could be an interview with someone and you want to make sure you are quoting them correctly. It could be because you want to document all your conversations with a company representative. You might want to record a call to remember instructions from someone that you couldn’t note down immediately. The use cases that demand that you record a call are endless. Luckily you can record a call on Android and via certain workarounds, even on an iPhone. Please remember that it’s illegal in some places and unethical in almost all cases to record a call without other people’s permission. Please always let people know that the call is being recorded and stop the recording if they are not comfortable with it. With that out of the way, here’s how to record a call on Android and iPhone.

There is no easy way to record phone calls on iPhone, particularly so in India. There are several call recorder apps on the App Store, but it’s hard to find ones that work. Even if they do, they will ask for a per-minute recording fee, and we don’t think it’s good value for money. There are two ways to reliably record phone calls on an iPhone and both involve using a second device.
