Hi guys,

I'm currently rocking a droid, and don't get me wrong, they're awesome, but I'm slowly being reeled into the simplicity of the Apple again. However I do have one potential deal breaker, I record all of my phone calls on my droid at the moment, and I need that functionality on my mobile device, so my question to you iOS nutters is, has anyone gotten call recording working for iPhones, not some gimmick where you route calls through some foreign call center, I'm talking about native call recording. 

Any help you can give, would be greatly appreciated.

Can't do it natively, yet. Apple has the calling part of the OS on lockdown, the only API available to devs is to initiate a phone call which is then handed to the OS for user to confirm.

Currently I think your main option would be to use a 3rd party service. I remember using one that would effectively have a 3-way conference call with the 3rd party listening in and recording. Would track your caller ID and notify you in app app when recording done.

Not going to lie, thats a little disappointing. However when articles like this surface, I'm kind of happy to stay on the droids.

Hi. 4 years on, have Apple had any change of stance on this? Are there any iOS apps that allow native call recording or are they still all 3rd party routed calls? Thanks.

OMG. You're right! This such an essential feature. I'm going to have to keep an old android just to keep this feature alive.
