Well, I am on the journey to find a good privacy respecting Android dialer app which also has the ability to record the calls regardless if it’s saved or not. I guess that’s a simple enough requirment PS: The device is unrooted.

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.
