I just got a new iphone just to have this Call Record and Transcribe feature! About time!!! But after getting the new iphone i find out the transcription part of the feature is not available in Canada! When will it be? Thanks
I live in Virginia which is a one-party state for call recording. So, as someone previously said … there’s times I don’t want the other parties to know I’m recording the call. In a one-party state … I just need to consent. Hence one-party state.
There’s more harm in Apple not including the announcement than it is to include the announcement. Why would Apple adjust call recording announcements per each of the states laws? Sounds ridiculous to ask and difficult to maintain the feature given how easy cross country traveling is in the USA.
@@elsamena7976 Because apple does these adjustments all the time for specific regions. You cannot take a picture without making a sound using iphones in Japan. Even if you buy your iPhone in the US. They could allow the setting to be visible only when the user are in regions where this is allowed. Kind of dumb to think they can't do it
⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️Recording alerts (notifications) are not necessary in many regions. Please allow us to choose whether to send an alert or not. Or, just in some specific regions!⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️
Few suggestions: 1. Make recording button accessible easily, currently it is placed far too left, it can integrated in the centre of the call window. 2. Give an option to remove the timer before stating to record a call, so the process could be faster. 3. Allow action button to quickly start recording the call. Or give option to start call recording automatically.
Yeah, seems really great to alert everyone about the call being recorded. That won’t make the call awkward at all or make people think about what they say more. I personally just want to record things for proof, like when I cancel an appointment. If I want to alert someone, I will do so myself, thank you very much. Not that people in europe can use this anyway.
I’m an ios 18 user but what’s the use if it announces “your call is being recorded” there are some call where i don’t want to let know other person that this call is recording 😵💫
Everyone saying that it’s a bad move to let people know they are being recorded on a call…. But it’s not, it’s a legal move because in some states it’s illegal to record a phone call without knowledge or permission and can be held accountable they civil court and the Justice court system 👀
Cool, if it weren't for that stupid notification of the start and end of the recording. But how behind Apple is in implementing basic necessary features, be it pausing for video recording, recording phone conversations. Hopefully someday we'll get a system clipboard manager, information on how long before the alarm goes off, etc. etc. etc.
Hi, I have iphone 14 pro and ios 18.1. I actually can record the call but when I go to notes the recorded call is in there but no transcribe option available.
In certain regions this is required by law. It depends on where you live. Some places allow one party consent, some places only allow for two party consent.
How do I transcribe a call while on it? I have a hearing impairment and am learning English, but listening is my weakest spot, which I would like to improve. Subtitles would help people like me.
For those commenting about the notification about the call being recorded. Telling people a phone call will be recorded is typically required to respect privacy rights and comply with legal regulations. In many regions, there are laws about consent for recording calls, which means at least one party (sometimes all parties) must be informed and agree to the recording. This disclosure protects people’s privacy, ensuring they know their words are being documented, and it gives them the choice to opt out if they’re uncomfortable. This transparency is part of broader privacy and data protection standards that apply to organizations and individuals.
"What should you do if you do not want to be recorded?" That's what the audible heads-up is for. If someone starts recording your call and you don't want to be recorded, you can say so and simply hang up.
Let users turn off the "This call is recording' alert in specific countries where call recording without noticing is legal. For example, in South Korea, Sam.sung had call recording for yeeeears without alert, and also you can auto-record all callings. Wouldn't be hard since Apple forcing Camera shutter sound in South Korea and Japan since they launched. 😒
If you live in a country where consent from both parties is required by law, then I think it is awesome to have siri saying the call is being recorded. But if you live in a country where one-way consent is legal, then we SHOULD be able to turn the notification off. There are perfectly valid reasons, within a jurisdiction that allows it, to record without the other part knowing they are being recorded. For example, when someone is extorting you over the phone and you need to generate factual evidence against them.
In settings, go to Apple Intelligence & Siri. Then click on join Waitlist. If it doesn’t give you the option to join the waitlist, make sure the language is set to English (US). Then it should work. Don’t worry, the waitlist doesn’t take long. For me it was like 20 minutes. That’s what worked for me and I’m on an iPhone 15 Pro Max and I’m in Canada. Hope this helps!!
This is a pretty nice feature to have, but it would be better if you can access the recordings through either the Files app or the Voice Memos app. Nice work Apple, keep up the good work!!
its aviable on every iphone whit ios 18.1, so if you haven't updated your ios version, you need to, its aviable whit iphone xr, xs and later, so yes, its aviable in your current iphone
Call recording is typically used discreetly or should I say secretly. Think: for whistleblowing purposes, etc. why create a feature and try to promote it in a manner you know people wouldn’t typically use? We already have apps on the app store that can do this.
In next update place that record icon in space, so that we will use rocket to go to space and click it just kidding, why not place it at the bottom for easy reach
But I don’t want them to know the call being recorded
Give an option to automatically start recording after picking up the call.
0:18 what is the point of having a conversation recorded if everyone gets an alert when you record
No, you can’t if you’re in Europe :/ I updated to iOs 18.1 yesterday and I was soo excited only to get NO NEW FEATURES 😢
Europe it's just a great market for Apple. A lot of missing features in iOS.
cool but its annoying that it announces the fact that its recording
I just got a new iphone just to have this Call Record and Transcribe feature! About time!!! But after getting the new iphone i find out the transcription part of the feature is not available in Canada! When will it be? Thanks

Apple really does make beautiful software!
you do realize the cheapest androids have had this feature, if not stockl third party ACR. Not that apple doesn't fo other good things but..
Even after spending billions on Apple Intelligence your Siri sounds like a tin can robot from the 50s.
😂😂😂
I’m an ios 18 user but what’s the use if it announces “your call is being recorded” there are some call where i don’t want to let know other person that this call is recording 😵💫

Like starting recording, does it verbally tell you and caller when ending call even if not done talking?
it shouldn't let callers on the other side know it, and how do users of android get alerted?
Great feature! Thanks for adding it to the new OS.
Cool, if it weren't for that stupid notification of the start and end of the recording.

It was there then it disappeared after I changed my device :((
It can be opened and closed as a feature in settings?!
But iPhone 14 Pro Max doesn’t support call recording 😢
This available for older iPhone Models like 12 pro max?
Can I, as a developer. Use an api to integrate the call transcript into my app?
How to record without informing others?
It doesn't make any sense to introduce a call recording feature with the weird announcement.
Yeah exactly
In the notes, the transcript doesn’t show
Only the call recording. Why?
W update to catch cheaters
Will this work on the iPhone 11?
Hi, I have iphone 14 pro and ios 18.1. I actually can record the call but when I go to notes the recorded call is in there but no transcribe option available.
It’s only available with the devices supporting Apple Intelligence
I just found out that the transcription part of the feature is not available in canada! Really disappointed.
I have iPhone 1 Pro Max 1TB. I get the audio recordings, but no transcripts.
Add multi language support please. Great functionality tho.
What is the point if second person knows that this call is being recorded????
In certain regions this is required by law. It depends on where you live. Some places allow one party consent, some places only allow for two party consent.
Call recording was one of the most critical features on my iOS wishlist. What took so long for Apple to introduce it?
How do I transcribe a call while on it? I have a hearing impairment and am learning English, but listening is my weakest spot, which I would like to improve. Subtitles would help people like me.

Why does it go to notes not voice mail or voice memo it’s just to make people use notes
Why the hell it’s tell other people the call is recordred
Call recording is blocked in the UK.
Recording is saved in notes but no option to play that recording?
what if the other person is a android user? can they hear Siri too??
I don't have that icon on the top left on my call
Finally! Been waiting for this one.
Announcing that the call is being recoded????? Really??????
Will call recording be available on older iPhones with iOS 18?
its aviable on every iphone whit ios 18.1 and later
This is very helpful, Thank you :)
my audio file seems too large to transcribe....phone is still thinking a half hour later. And can't seem to find the backup recording in icloud drive
Same here, my recording was 60min. It hasn't transcribed it all day. Not sure if it's still trying or if it just can't do it.
Awesome, I will now record call centre scammers and pass it on to the police.
What course of action do you take if the person you are calling doesn't want to be recorded? What should you do if you do not want to be recorded?
"What should you do if you do not want to be recorded?"
That's what the audible heads-up is for. If someone starts recording your call and you don't want to be recorded, you can say so and simply hang up.
The feature you should have for many years ago. Not now. I dont know why Apple is so slow in update necessary feature

For example, in South Korea, Sam.sung had call recording for yeeeears without alert, and also you can auto-record all callings.

nicely done apple👍🏻

Text transcript not generating
When i click on the stored call, no transcribe comes up, just the recorded call. I have iOS 18.1 installed
I can't do this in Europe why?
Now it’s hard for workers and management in companies to do dodgy things that are against the company’s interests via phone calls.
Dan is so cool
I LOVE THIS SOOOO MUCH!
Why apple intelligence isn't showing in my iPhone 15pro max after updating ios 18.1.
In settings, go to Apple Intelligence & Siri. Then click on join Waitlist. If it doesn’t give you the option to join the waitlist, make sure the language is set to English (US). Then it should work. Don’t worry, the waitlist doesn’t take long. For me it was like 20 minutes. That’s what worked for me and I’m on an iPhone 15 Pro Max and I’m in Canada. Hope this helps!!
Not supported yet in Egypt
How to make Call recording Automatic ?
Could you record call from iphone to andriod phone ?
When in Portuguese?
Supported languages for call transcription?
This is a pretty nice feature to have, but it would be better if you can access the recordings through either the Files app or the Voice Memos app.
Nice work Apple, keep up the good work!!
Probably not in the EU, right?
alternative app stores available in EU should provide a app for EU and without mentioning it is being recorded
Love this feature
Great job with this one!!!
It’s not working on my phone, I can’t open the recording?
What should i do if i have mackbook and didn't have an iphone for ios development?
Why wouldn’t it go in voice memos instead of notes??? I’ll still use lol. Thanks Apple ❤❤❤
Why are yall mad about the other party being notified that the call will be recorded? It’s a literal crime to not notify them lol and quite creepy
Please make it possible to record without informing the other person that I am recording. There is no legal problem in Japan and Korea at all.
can't you just screen record? cuz I am new to iphone
They should of added this years ago
What, iphone cannot record a call until now?
It is greyed out on my 16promax. Why?
Also on iPhone 11, iOS 18.1
I live in EU, I can’t…
It would be great if iPhone 10-11 can at least do the transcribe!
Is this available to Greece?
But not yet in Italy 😢
what is the point to let them knows that you are recording, not useful at all
This feature starts from which Model ??
iphone xs, xr and later
10 years later they did it 🎉
look more often at what your competitors have, guys🔛
Is this feature available on 14 Pro Max?
its aviable on every iphone whit ios 18.1, so if you haven't updated your ios version, you need to, its aviable whit iphone xr, xs and later, so yes, its aviable in your current iphone
nice 👍🏻
The button was there and then disappeared (I am in the EU).
Finally!
I love apple ❤
Yesterday I called a friend to try this feature and they weren’t alerted of the recording…
but it informs people on the other side, what is the use of it?
iphone 13 call recording not available Qatar region
when will the transcripts feature be availble in other languages (for example hindi !!!!!!!!!!)
Thanks
Call recording is typically used discreetly or should I say secretly. Think: for whistleblowing purposes, etc. why create a feature and try to promote it in a manner you know people wouldn’t typically use? We already have apps on the app store that can do this.
A service that is not a job in Egypt, please solve the problem
Is it available in iPhone 13 Pro?
In next update place that record icon in space, so that we will use rocket to go to space and click it just kidding, why not place it at the bottom for easy reach
😆 it's so inappropriate knowing your conversation will be recorded if I'm on the other line.
amazing
i dont wanna let them know that im being recording the call !how do i fixed it ?
