Truecaller Introduces Call Recording for All Android and iOS Users in India: Here’s How it Works

Truecaller has recently expanded its call recording feature to all users, including Android and iPhone users, in India. This development is particularly beneficial for iPhone users who previously had to depend on third-party applications for call recording, which often required access to personal call data.

Truecaller’s introduction of this feature aims to alleviate privacy concerns by providing a secure and integrated solution for call recording. Alongside the call recording functionality, Truecaller has introduced several artificial intelligence (AI) features tailored for its Indian user base.

Enhancements and AI Integration

These features include the ability to transcribe recorded calls in both Hindi and English, facilitating better management and review of important conversations. Additionally, Truecaller leverages AI to generate summaries of calls, offering users a quick overview of their recorded discussions.

For Android users, recording calls via Truecaller involves setting the app as the default dialer. This can be done by navigating to the Settings menu, selecting ‘Apps’, then ‘Default Applications’, and finally choosing Truecaller as the phone app.

During a call, users can start recording by tapping the ‘Rec’ button and waiting for a three-second countdown. Notifications are sent once the recording and transcription are ready, ensuring users are promptly informed.

Recording Calls on iOS Devices

Recording calls on iPhones through Truecaller requires a few additional steps due to Apple’s restrictions on native call recording. Users must answer or initiate a call, open Truecaller, navigate to the Search page, and select ‘Record a Call’.

Following this, users should tap on ‘Call the Recording Line’ and then merge the calls for recording to commence. Truecaller assures that all recordings are securely stored on the device, with the option for users to back them up on iCloud.

Truecaller’s update aims to provide a seamless and secure call recording experience across both major mobile operating systems. By integrating AI features for transcription and summarization, Truecaller enhances the utility of call recordings for its users.
