Get More Out of Your iPhone: Recording and Transcription on iOS
Listen now
Description
In this episode, Thomas Domville demonstrates the call recording and transcription feature in iOS 18.1. This update brings an exciting built-in call recording capability to iPhones. Recording a call is straightforward: just double-tap the Record button in the top left corner during a call (note that you might need to hide the keypad to see the button). A voice message will notify all participants that the call is being recorded. These recordings are saved directly in the Notes app, which uses end-to-end encryption to keep your conversations private. To review a call, simply go to the Notes app, and you'll find your recordings securely stored there. Additionally, iOS 18.1 offers automatic transcription, generating real-time captions and notes during your call. This feature makes it easy to reference important points later, with transcriptions handled entirely on your device to ensure privacy, with no data sent to external servers. Furthermore, supported iPhone models can provide summaries of these recordings, making it even easier to keep track of your conversations.

Hello and welcome. My name is Thomas Domville, also known as AnonyMouse. I want to show you a feature called call recording and transcription. This is a beautiful feature that allows you to record your phone call. And yes, you're able to get a transcription of what transpired within that conversation of the phone call. Very useful for any time that you want to record a meeting or conversation. Maybe perhaps you're doing an interview with somebody or just simply just want to record for keepsake. Whether there's somebody close to your family you just want to have for record, for archival, or maybe you have a business transition or phone call you just want to make sure it's recorded. Now a couple things I want to note about this feature is that I always like to let people know that I'm about to record them. So it's kind of a respectful kind of a thing and not to get them caught off guard. So some people can maybe kind of leery about those kind of things that you just all of a sudden you just pop on them that you're recording their phone calls and such. Make sure you tell them that you're about to record them. Now even though Apple put a great safety feature in this and if you begin the recording no matter what you do it's going to let that recorder know that the phone call is being recorded. So that is a nice feature that Apple ensured that everybody knows that the phone call is being recorded. Now before you can use this feature you'll have to turn this option on and that's within the settings. So let's head over to settings. Settings. Double tap to open. You one finger double tap on settings. Settings. Now what we're looking for and we're looking for the phone app. Now the phone app now lives in the app section. Yep. So at the very bottom of the settings so I'm going to do a four fingers tap at the bottom half of my phone here. Apps. Button. Which will directly to get me to the app…
