Is There No Way to Automatically Record Phone Calls Anymore?

I’m still using an old phone (LG G7 ThinQ), and their Phone app has a built-in recording.

If I wanted to use another phone app (or when I upgrade phones), I would lose this feature. And I have looked (albeit not too much) and found that there’s no way to record phone calls unless you root or it has to be built-in on the phone like some Samsung or Xiaomi phones.

It’s a standard feature in GrapheneOS

There’s a Call recorder on F-Droid that is in active development, it’s open source. High quality call recording requires a rooted device.

I hear ya mate, and not even Samsung now. Definitely not comfortable using a third party either.

Best solution is to unlock bootloader, root your device and use Basic Call Recorder Magisk module. Feature-Packed, fast, stable.
