Apple officially launched iOS 18 a few days ago, and it has already reached compatible iPhones. If you’ve been using the Public Beta Builds of iOS 18 to enjoy the new features, you will be able to download & install the new iOS 18 (Stable) Update soon.
The new iOS 18 brings loads of new features, changes, and more. However, the one thing that stands out is the call recording and transcript.
Call Recording on iOS 18
Yes, the Call Recording option is finally available on iPhone with iOS 18. This means you no longer need to rely on a third-party call recorder to record phone calls on your iPhone.
Like your Android friends, you can now record your iPhone’s incoming or outgoing calls. Along with the call recording, the iPhone’s call recorder also has voice transcription features.
A few Things to Remember before Recording Calls on iPhone
Even though Apple officially rolled out the call recording feature, there are a few things that you should note.
- Call Recording is limited to iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 15 Pro Max, and all iPhone 16 models.
- Starting a call recorder will send an audible message to the participants, letting them know that the call is being recorded.
- The call’s audio recording will be saved to the Notes App. You will also be able to see the transcription of the call on the Notes app.
- iPhones with Apple Intelligence can get an AI Generated summary of the transcription.

iOS 18 call recording not showing?
If the call recording option doesn’t appear during the live calls, you likely have an incompatible iPhone.
