Recording phone calls could be a lifesaver at times. Due to this, Android smartphones have the call recording feature by default. But things get tougher when you are an iPhone user. There is no built-in feature to record calls on the iPhone. You have to follow unconventional ways to monitor the incoming and outgoing calls on your iPhone.
Is it legal to record phone calls?
There are laws at both State and Federal levels stating that recording phone calls without the caller’s consent are illegal. If the user came to know the call was recorded without their consent, they could take legal action. This is the main reason that Apple does not include the call recording feature despite the user needs. However, the law may depend upon the state you are living in.
Possible Ways to Record Calls on iPhone
As there is no built-in feature to record calls on iPhone, you need to use third-party apps. Apps like Rev Call Recorder, TapACall Pro, and Call Recorder Pro are some of the apps that are available on the App Store, which serves the purpose.
Most of the third-party apps work in the same way. You have to make the call in the app and then make the call as usual. Finally, merge the two calls. The recording will be saved on the app’s server. You can get them whenever you want.
Your device must run on iOS 9.0 & later to record the calls. So, make sure to update your iPhone firmware to the latest version.

How to Use Third-party apps to Record Calls on iPhone for Free
Outgoing Calls
In the method, we have used the Rev Call Recorder app. Almost all the other call recording apps follow the same procedure.
(1) Open the Rev Call Recorder app and tap the Start Recorder Call button.
(2) Choose the contact or enter the number that you want to record the call and tap the Start Call button.
(3) For the first time, it will show you the brief guide. Tap the arrow button to start the proceedings.
(4) Now, tap the Call button to start the call.
(5) Once the call is connected, the app will ask you to start the call using the default method.
(6) Call the same number in the usual way.
(7) When both calls are connected, merge the calls. After that, the call will be recorded.
Incoming Calls
Recording incoming calls are quite easier. It involves only four steps.
(1) At first, attend the call as usual.
(2) Then, open the Rev Call Recorder app and tap the Start Recorder Call –> Incoming Call.
(3) Now, tap the Call button on the pop-up.
(4) Then, merge the two calls.
The only drawback of this method is that you are giving third-party access to your private conversation.
