Why The Best Phone Call Recording Apps For Android Require Some Hacking – SlashGear

The easiest way to record calls on Android is with Google’s own Phone app, though not all devices or carriers support it, like the Google Pixel. According to Google, you need to have an Android phone running Android 9 or above, update to the latest version of Google’s Phone app, and specifically be based in a country where call recording is supported. Additionally, your wireless carrier also needs to allow call recording on its service.

If you don’t have a device that supports it, or want to use a different app, things get a bit trickier. Starting on July 31, 2023, Google will introduce new and stricter permission requirements for apps that access sensitive information (like phone call audio). Up until now, some third-party call recording apps could get around Google’s restrictions by accessing its Accessibility API, but that is changing. 

As such, only apps where you sign into Google or system apps can access the audio of a phone call, meaning any app on Google Play as of June 2023 that states it can record phone calls is either not up to date, or not telling the truth. 

The only way third-party apps can actually record phone call audio from July onward is with a rooted phone, where the user can mark the app as a system app. This solution isn’t guaranteed to work, and rooting your Android phone can lead to serious problems with the phone’s operating system, but if you’re set on recording call audio, that’s the only unofficial way.
