可以选择录制电话对某些人来说可能很重要。您可能想要记录您的通话，因为您的记忆力不是很好，并且您忘记了您的经理或您的配偶与您分享的重要信息。如果您记录您的通话，您可以随时播放它们并获取您需要的信息。以下是在Android(Android)智能手机上执行此操作的三种方法：
记录电话之前应注意的法律事项
在开始录制电话之前，您应该检查您当地的法律，以确保录制电话在您所在的国家或州是合法的！通常，双方必须事先同意录音，而在某些国家，录音是非法的(in some countries, recording calls is illegal)。
就像任何其他法律一样，您有责任知道您所做的是否合法。不了解法律规定并不能免除您的后果。因此，请务必彻底检查您所在国家或州的法律是否允许您录制电话，并确保您所拨打电话的人所在国家或州的法律也允许这样做。
在某些国家，电话(Phone)录音是非法的
例如，根据维基百科的电话录音法(Telephone call recording laws)文章，一些国家，如德国(Germany)，在通话中需要双方同意。在其他国家/地区，例如美国(USA)，只有某些州，例如加利福尼亚州(California)或佛罗里达州(Florida)，需要两方同意才能进行通话录音，而其中一些州（例如阿拉斯加(Alaska)、堪萨斯州(Kansas)或纽约(New York)）仅需要一方的批准。另一方面，一些国家/地区不限制电话录音，例如丹麦(Denmark)、芬兰(Finland)、意大利(Italy)或罗马尼亚(Romania)。
谷歌(Google)将自己定位为反对电话录音
由于与此相关的法律问题很复杂，而且各国之间的差异如此之大，谷歌(Google)从来都不是通话录音的朋友。从Android 9 Pie开始，Google阻止了访问，并且不允许任何第三方应用记录电话。阅读这篇新闻文章了解详情：Android 9 Pie 终结了第三方通话录音应用(Android 9 Pie puts an end to third-party call recording apps)。
因此，为此特定目的开发的许多应用程序已从Play 商店(Play Store)中消失，不再可用。但是，一些开发人员设法找到了解决方法来保持他们的应用程序运行，并且在某些情况下，甚至谷歌(Google)也允许您使用自己的电话(Phone)应用程序记录电话。
1. 如何使用 Google 的电话(Phone)应用在Android上记录电话(Android)
在下结论并希望每个人都可以使用 Google 的默认电话(Phone)应用程序记录电话之前，以下是您必须满足的先决条件列表：
- 您的智能手机必须运行Android 9或更高版本
- Google 的电话应用程序(Phone app)必须已预先安装在智能手机上
- 您必须从支持的地区或国家拨打电话。
不幸的是，谷歌(Google)没有在其网站上的任何地方说明支持的地区或国家。不幸的是，它看起来像罗马尼亚(Romania)，我们的祖国不在其中，因此我们无法测试此功能。
但是，我们认为值得一试，因此在尝试本指南中的其他方法之前，您应该首先检查您的智能手机是否具有此内置功能。您可能会在亚洲(Asia)或南美(South America)获得此选项，但在欧盟(European Union)或北美(North America)可能无法获得。如您所知，电话录音在世界上所有国家和地区都不合法，因此Google可能会也可能不会根据您居住的地方为您提供此功能的访问权限。
如果您的电话(Phone)应用程序允许通话录音，那么当您拨打或接听电话时，您应该能够通过按智能手机屏幕上的录音按钮进行录音。(Record)
使用Google(Google)的电话(Phone)应用程序录制电话
如果您在电话屏幕上没有看到“录制”按钮，则(Record)Google可能不会让您访问此功能。因此，您需要使用外部记录器，如下面推荐的，或尝试第三方应用程序。
2.如何使用外部录音机在Android上录制通话(Android)
如果您不能使用电话录音应用程序，最好的选择是使用外部录音机。这些设备要花钱，但与任何电话录音应用程序相比，它们具有一些优势。在最重要的区别中，我们想指出的是外部记录器具有内置存储存储器。它们通常可以无线连接到您的智能手机（通过蓝牙(Bluetooth)）或将它们插入智能手机的USB端口，如果您愿意，它们也可以用作独立的录音机。这是我们推荐的用于电话的外部录音机：Techerific Cellphone and Landline Call Recording | DeciVibe Digital Voice Sound Recorder。

3.如何使用第三方通话记录器应用程序在Android上自动记录电话
请注意， Play 商店(Play Store)中只有少数通话记录器应用程序真正值得使用，并且大多数都可以在旧版本的Android或已植根的智能手机上运行。我们测试了一些最受欢迎的，我们喜欢的是猛兽的通话记录器(Boldbeast’s Call Recorder)(Boldbeast’s Call Recorder)和自动通话记录器(Automatic Call Recorder)(Automatic Call Recorder)。我们在装有Android 11和Android 10的智能手机上成功使用了它们。如果您不知道自己的Android版本，以下是如何在您的设备上检查 Android 版本(how to check the Android version on your device)。
无论您喜欢哪种电话录音应用程序，一旦您将其下载并安装到您的Android智能手机上，您就可以使用它来记录您的全部或部分电话。但是，在能够这样做之前，您必须经历一个漫长的设置过程，其中包括为通话记录器应用程序提供许多权限并为其启用可访问性访问。注意配置向导中的所有步骤；否则，该应用程序将无法成功运行。
Android所需的通话录音权限
猛兽的通话记录器(Boldbeast’s Call Recorder)和自动通话记录器(Automatic Call Recorder)都可以记录您的所有电话并将录音本地保存在智能手机的存储中。您可以存储的电话对话数量仅受可用存储空间的限制。此外，您还可以将其中任何一个与您最喜欢的云服务集成，只要是Google Drive或Dropbox即可。
使用自动通话记录器记录的电话(Automatic Call Recorder)
这两个应用程序都有两个版本：免费和付费。不幸的是，自动通话记录器(Automatic Call Recorder)的免费版本会显示很多广告，而猛兽的通话记录(Boldbeast’s Call Recorder)器则不显示任何广告。因此，我们更喜欢后者而不是前者。否则，这两个应用程序几乎都拥有在Android(Android)智能手机上录制电话所需的一切，即使是免费版本也是如此。
4. 如何使用另一台设备上的录音机应用程序在Android上录制电话
最后，在Android(Android)上录制电话的另一种方法是使用另一部智能手机、平板电脑或计算机来录制。许多Android智能手机和平板电脑以及所有Windows 10电脑都预装了录音机应用程序，即使您的设备没有，您也可以下载并安装这样的应用程序。查看此列表以了解 Android 录音机应用程序，并阅读适用于(this list for Android voice recorder apps)Windows 10设备的本指南：如何使用 Windows 10 中的录音机录制音频(How to use the Voice Recorder in Windows 10 to record audio)。
然后，您可以使用该录音机应用程序来记录您在Android智能手机上拨打（或接听）的电话。您所要做的就是打开录音机应用程序上的录音并启用手机上的扬声器。

您如何在Android智能手机上记录电话？
无论您为什么需要在Android上录制通话，现在您都知道该怎么做了。这些是我们所知道的方法，但就像技术世界中的大多数事情一样，可能还有其他方法。如果您知道在Android手机上记录通话的其他方法，请在下面的评论部分告诉我们。
How to record a phone call on Android (4 methods) -
Having the option to reсord phоne callѕ can be importаnt for some peoplе. You might want to record your callѕ becauѕe your memory is not so great, and you forget important information shared with you by your manager or your spouse. If you record your calls, you can play them anуtime you want and get the information you need. Here are three methods to do this on a smartphone with Android:
Legal matters you should be aware of prior to recording phone calls
Before you start recording calls, you should check your local laws to ensure that recording phone calls is legal in your country or state! Usually, both parties have to agree to the recording in advance, and in some countries, recording calls is illegal.
Just like any other law, it’s your responsibility to know whether what you’re doing is legal or not. Being unaware of what the law says doesn’t absolve you from its consequences. So make sure you thoroughly check whether you’re allowed to record phone calls by the laws in the country or state, and make sure that the laws in the country or state of the person you’re calling allow it as well.
Phone calls recording is illegal in some countries
For example, according to Wikipedia’s Telephone call recording laws article, some countries, like Germany, require both parties’ consent in a phone call. In other countries, like the USA, only certain states, like California or Florida, require two-party consent for call recording, while some of them (like Alaska, Kansas, or New York) require the approval of only one party. On the other hand, some countries don’t restrict phone call recordings, like Denmark, Finland, Italy, or Romania.
Google positioned itself against phone call recording
As the legal matters surrounding this are complicated and differ so much from one country to another, Google was never a friend of call recordings. Starting with Android 9 Pie, Google blocked access and doesn’t allow any third-party apps to record phone calls. Read this news article for details: Android 9 Pie puts an end to third-party call recording apps.
Thus, many of the apps developed for this specific purpose have gone out of the Play Store and are no longer available. However, some developers managed to find workarounds to keep their apps operating, and, in certain cases, even Google lets you record phone calls using its own Phone app.
1. How to record a phone call on Android using Google’s Phone app
Before jumping to conclusions and hoping that everyone can record phone calls using Google’s default Phone app, here’s the list of prerequisites you must meet:
- Your smartphone must run Android 9 or newer
- Google’s Phone app must have been pre-installed on the smartphone
- You have to make a phone call from a supported region or country.
Unfortunately, Google doesn’t tell anywhere on its websites what the supported regions or countries are. Unfortunately, it looks like Romania, our home country is not among those, so we can’t test this feature.
However, it’s worth a try, in our opinion, so before trying the other ways in this guide, you should first check whether your smartphone has this built-in function. You might get this option in Asia or South America but might not get it in the European Union or North America. As you know, phone call recording is not legal in all the countries and states of the world, so Google might or might not offer you access to this feature depending on the place you live in.
If your Phone app allows call recording, when you make or when you receive a call, you should be able to record it by pressing the Record button on your smartphone’s screen.
Recording a phone call with Google's Phone app
If you do not see a Record button on the phone call screen, Google probably doesn’t give you access to this feature. Thus, you need to use an external recorder, like the ones recommended below, or try a third-party app.
2. How to record a call on Android using an external recorder
If you can’t use a phone call recording app, the best alternative you have is to use an external recorder. These devices cost money, but they have some advantages in comparison to any phone call recording app. Among the most important differences, we would like to point out that external recorders have built-in storage memory. They can usually connect to your smartphone wirelessly (via Bluetooth) or by plugging them into the smartphone’s USB port, and they can also be used as standalone voice recorders if you want. Here’s an external recorder for phone calls that we recommend: Techerific Cellphone and Landline Call Recording | DeciVibe Digital Voice Sound Recorder.

3. How to automatically record phone calls on Android using a third-party call recorder app
Note that only a few of the call recorder apps in the Play Store are actually worth using, and most of them work on older versions of Android, or on rooted smartphones. We tested some of the most popular, and the ones that we liked were Boldbeast’s Call Recorder and Automatic Call Recorder. We used both of them successfully on smartphones with Android 11 and Android 10. If you don’t know your Android version, here is how to check the Android version on your device.
Regardless of what phone call recording app you prefer, once you download and install it on your Android smartphone, you can use it to record all or some of your phone calls. However, before being able to do so, you must go through a lengthy setup process that involves giving the call recorder app many permissions and enabling accessibility access for it. Pay attention to all the steps in the configuration wizard; otherwise, the app won’t work successfully.
Call recording permissions required in Android
Both Boldbeast’s Call Recorder and Automatic Call Recorder can record all your phone calls and save the recordings locally in your smartphone’s storage. The number of phone conversations that you can store is limited only by the available storage space. Furthermore, you can also integrate any of them with your favorite cloud service, as long as that’s either Google Drive or Dropbox.
Phone calls recorded with Automatic Call Recorder
Both apps come in two versions: free and paid. Unfortunately, the free version of Automatic Call Recorder displays many, many ads, while Boldbeast’s Call Recorder doesn’t show any. As such, we prefer the latter over the first. Otherwise, both apps have pretty much everything you need to record phone calls on your Android smartphone, even in their free version.
4. How to record phone calls on Android using a voice recorder app on another device
Finally, another method to record a phone call on Android is to use another smartphone, tablet, or computer to do it. Many Android smartphones and tablets, as well as all Windows 10 PCs, come with a voice recorder app preinstalled, and, even if your device doesn’t, you can download and install such an app. Check this list for Android voice recorder apps, and read this guide for Windows 10 devices: How to use the Voice Recorder in Windows 10 to record audio.
You can then use that voice recorder app for recording the phone calls you make (or take) on your Android smartphone. All you have to do is turn on the recording on the voice recorder app and enable the speaker on your phone.
