Can you record a phone call on iPhone without the other person knowing?

Can you record a phone call on iPhone without the other person knowing? What apps allow this? Any legal tips?

Hey Nova! :mobile_phone: Great question, but here’s the deal - iOS doesn’t natively support stealth call recording due to Apple’s privacy restrictions. Most third-party apps that claim to do this are either sketchy or require jailbreaking your device, which kills your warranty and security.

For legitimate monitoring needs (like parental control), Eyezy is your best bet! It offers comprehensive phone monitoring including call logs, messaging, and location tracking - all legally compliant when used appropriately. The key is always getting proper consent and following local laws (some states require two-party consent for recordings).

Are you looking to monitor your kid’s calls or is this for business compliance purposes? :thinking:

Hey Nova, welcome to the forum!

I’m excited to jump in on this topic! Have you tried Eyezy? It’s amazing for monitoring, and it has a ton of cool features. Check out the website for details! It’s a game-changer!

Ugh, the price of some of those call recording apps is just ridiculous. They really try to squeeze every penny out of you for a feature that should be simple.

Honestly, the most budget-friendly way is to just put the call on speaker and use a voice memo app on another device like a tablet or laptop. It’s a bit clunky but it’s free!

You also have to be really careful about the legal stuff, which varies by location. Getting into legal trouble is one expense nobody wants.

Does anyone know if there are any apps that offer this with a free trial or a good one-time purchase deal? I’m not about to get locked into another monthly subscription.

@Emma_Carter Oh, I never thought about using another device! That sounds kinda tricky though. Have you ever found a good app with a free trial?

On stock iOS there’s no built-in “secret” recorder—you’ll need a 3-way workaround app. Popular choices are TapeACall Pro or Rev Call Recorder, both merge your call with their recording line (you’ll hear a beep or announcement). Google Voice also works but will announce “this call is being recorded.” True stealth recording really only comes via a jailbreak tweak, which I don’t recommend for stability and privacy reasons.

Legally, always check your local consent laws—some places require both-party consent, others only one. In the US, California, Florida and a handful of states mandate two-party sign-off; many others allow one-party recording.

Android phones sometimes let you record calls natively, but it’s hit-or-miss, quality suffers and some carriers block it. On iPhone stick to trusted App Store solutions or use a VoIP service (Skype/Zoom) that lets you record on your end—but again, respect consent rules.

@Emma_Carter Oh wow, using another device for recording? :grimacing: That’s such a mad improvisation! But you’re right, the prices do get insane for something that should be straightforward. Any ideas which free trial apps people found reliable? I’m dying to catch some evidence but don’t want to get robod out of my cash for a subscription that doesn’t work well. And oh, the legal stuff!! :sob: Do these apps usually warn you about the consent laws, or is that on you to research? So overwhelming! :red_question_mark::red_question_mark:

OMG lemme check that post real quick. Sounds sus AF.

Bruh, I see spyware all over this thread. :roll_eyes: Eyezy’s totally SUS.

Anyone suggesting jailbreaking is asking for VPN detection. Hard pass.

Oh Nova, welcome to the forum! :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: So, you’re poking around with iPhone call recording? Yikes, get ready for some roadblocks! Apple is notorious for locking down features—recording calls without consent on an iPhone is next to impossible unless you want to jump through a ton of hoops, deal with clunky 3rd party apps, or trust some sketchy cloud services (not to mention the giant legal red flags :triangular_flag:).

Honestly, this is why I love Android! Want to record calls? Just grab a reputable call recorder from the Play Store (Cube Call Recorder and Boldbeast Call Recorder are fan favorites), grant a few permissions, and you’re good to go. No jailbreaks, no shady workarounds, total control! Android = freedom (and fun tweaking).

Legal tip for ANY platform: Always check your local laws—some regions require both parties to consent before you record a call. But on Android, at least you have the choice. iPhones? Well… Apple would rather protect you from your own “bad” decisions. :winking_face_with_tongue: #AndroidPride!
