Android could have a call recorder in future versions

The reasons why a user would like to record their phone calls are usually varied, but they focus on issues such as security and legal issues, such as threatening calls, contact records with customer service phones or work related issues. And currently, if a user of the Android operating system wants to record his phone calls, he has to use third-party applications to help him in this task. This could have its days numbered since Google's operating system could incorporate, pre-installed in the terminals, its own call recorder, in its next versions.

Call recording on Android will be possible natively

According to a comment by a Google employee, echoed in the XDA Developers Android development forum, Google would be considering opening the door to a native call recording system. An Android user submitted a request to have Android integrated into the system. An employee of the tech giant pinned the proposal and left the following comment on behalf of the entire Android development team:

« Our development team has been adding call recording APIs to their roadmap It's something we'd like to cover in a future version of Android. However, due to the security and privacy implications of such APIs, it is not something we can deliver for the Q version.»

Yes, it is already too late for the native call recording function to be included in the next version of Android although it is not ruled out that we will see it in Android R , which will appear in 2020. This new feature, however, may conflict with some local laws regarding recording calls without the consent of both parties, so depending on where alive, you can enjoy it or not.

In the next summer season, Google will do the honors by presenting the new version of Android 10 Q of which we currently do not know the name. Among its novelties is an improvement of the split screen function, an integrated dark mode, desktop mode to connect the mobile to a monitor and use it as a personal computer and an improved power mode.
