Truecaller, a popular caller identification application has yet again introduced the call recording feature for both Android and iOS users but not for free. The company has found yet another way to re-introduce the feature after Google and Apple placed restrictions on their operating systems.

According to the company, the call recording feature will be accompanied by a translate call into text feature, which will be useful for customers who do not want to miss anything while attending an important meeting or whatever else. Users will also be able to search through transcripts to quickly find information in recorded conversations.

Why Truecaller Removed Call Recording Feature?

Call recording was made available by Truecaller to premium Android customers in 2018 and to all Android users in 2021. However, Google restricted access to its Accessibility API in 2022, which forced the business to remove the feature from its apps. Truecaller was one of many apps that used the API to record calls.
