Truecaller

Truecaller, the popular caller ID and spam-blocking app, now offers call recording as a part of their premium subscription. And guess what? You can use this app on Apple iPhone. However, the call recording features come under a premium subscription that costs around Rs. 75 per month. It is pretty reasonable compared with other apps offering the same.

Here’s a breakdown of how to record a call on iPhone with Truecaller Premium:

1. Launch the Truecaller app on your iPhone.
2. You’ll see a prominent “Record a Call” button on the main screen. There will also be a list of your previously recorded calls, if any.
3. There are two ways to record calls, depending on whether you’re initiating the call or receiving one:
   • Outgoing Calls:  Click “Record a Call” and then make your call as usual.
   • Incoming Calls:  For incoming calls, choose the “Incoming Call” option within the recording feature, then answer the call.
4. Merge the Calls:  In both scenarios, Truecaller will provide you with a dedicated Truecaller number to dial (it’s a free call). Once connected, tap “Add” and initiate the call with your actual contact. Finally, tap “Merge Calls” to begin recording.

TapeACall Pro

While the TapeACall Pro app is considerably expensive for most users at $11, the app is very decent and offers a simple experience. You get unlimited call recording time regardless of who you are calling for one year. The pricing is listed at $20 (Rs 1500) per year for unlimited calls.

You need to know how to record a call on iPhone for this app with slightly different approach compared to the other options listed here. For incoming calls you need to initiate a recording by putting whoever you’re speaking to on hold for a moment and then opening the app to tap on the record button.

Once you have done this, the call is merged and stored with a remote recording service, for outgoing calls, you can open the app and tap on the record option and then call the person to merge the call. TapeACall Pro doesn’t notify the other user that you are recording the conversation so it is important to keep in mind that if the place you live requires you to take consent before recording then you will need to do it manually. When you are done recording you can access the stored audio file form your smartphone.
