Apple surprised its users with the release of the beta version iOS 18.1, which for the first time introduces the intriguing ability to record conversations on the iPhone. The new feature is part of the artificial intelligence model Apple Intelligence, which is expected to be released to all users later this year. Adventurous users who want to try the beta version can register through the Apple website, but it is important to remember that this is an unfinished version that may contain bugs.

How It Works?

After the conversation starts, you can tap the recording button in the upper left corner. All participants in the call will receive a voice notification that the call is being recorded. After the call ends, the recording is saved in the Notes app, where you can listen to it, read a full transcript or a summary of the call (in English only). Currently, iPhone call recording is only possible using third-party apps, many of which are limited or require payment for full recording and transcription.
