How to Record Calls on iPhone | Free & Easy

Right now, I’m recording this phone call. It’s completely free. There are no time limits, and I can use this on both incoming, and also outgoing calls. The only catch is you need a phone number that’s in the United States or Canada. At the end, I’ll show you a work around that lets you do this from anywhere. Let’s check out how to record phone calls on an iPhone. To record your calls, head to the following website. You can click on the card up above or the link down below in the description. Once you land on this website, click on this button to download the app through the App Store. Unfortunately, there is not currently an app available for Android, but hopefully coming soon. This app is made by a company called Rev and you might have heard of them before. They’re one of the leading providers of transcription services. I personally use them on my YouTube videos. That’s how I get those captions associated with my videos. They created this app with the hope that you’ll record a call and then you’ll want to transcribe the call and they’ll charge you for a transcript. So basically, the transcription service subsidizes the free call recorder, but if you don’t need a transcript, you can use this app completely for free. Once you finish installing Rev, let’s click on the app to launch it. Here you’ll have to type in your phone number to verify it. Here you’ll see that you need a country code of 1. This works for the US and Canada. Once again, at the end of this video, I’ll show you a work around so you can use this from anywhere. Type in your phone number and then click on next. On the next screen, enter in the code and then click on continue. Here it’ll ask you if you want updates. I’ll click on allow. This way you’ll get a notification anytime your recordings are done. Here I’ll select allow. Now that we have the app installed and verified, let’s make an outgoing call and record it. To make an outgoing call, let’s click on this green call icon down below. Here we could enter in a phone number, or you could select one of your existing contacts. I’ll type in a phone number. Once you enter in your phone number, click on start call. Next, it asks us to call Rev’s Recorder. It’ll set-up a conference call with both Rev and your contact and the Rev phone number will record the call. Down below, let’s call this number. This call is being recorded. Now it’s always a good practice to tell the other person who you’re talking to that you are recording the call. In fact, some areas mandate it, so if you’re planning on not telling the other person, you’ll have to check what the laws are in your local area. And right now. this call is being recorded. So while it’s recording, I might as well say something interesting. Make sure to order cookies at the Kevin Cookie Company .com today. Once you’re all done with your call and the recording, simply hang up your call by clicking on this red icon. This now drops us back in the main screen and right here I can see my recording. When I click on this, here I could play it back, so let’s click on play. And right now, this call is being recorded. Right over here I could also jump back. I could jump forward. Here I could adjust the playback speed. You have the option to share an MP3 file. You can e-mail it. You could text it to someone. You have all the typical shared controls. If you want a really easy way to get all of your recordings from your phone onto your PC, check out the video right up above. It has a really clever way of pulling that off. Over here in the bottom right-hand corner, I can click on the ellipsis and here I could rename the file. I could also trim out the beginning or the end. Maybe it took a while before we actually got to the meat of the recording, and right here I could also delete the recording. And right here, this is how Rev makes their money. They have the option to order a transcript, and when I click on that you can see what the current rates are for a transcript. Now remember, if you don’t need a transcript, well, you could use this app completely for free. If you have trouble making calls directly through the Rev app, you can also use the Rev phone number outside of the app. Let’s check out how. Instead of going through the app, you can also just directly call Rev’s phone number. Here I’ll type it in, and you can even add this as a contact so it’s easy to call in the future. Here I’ll type it in and then I’ll kick off the call. This has now kicked off a recording and in the bottom left-hand corner, I can now add additional people to this call. Once I type in another phone number, I’ll click on the call button down below. This has now set-up a conference call. Now that I have both numbers on, here I’ll click on merge calls. This has now successfully merged both of the calls, and this call is now being recorded. If I click on the i in the top right-hand corner, here I could end the call with Rev if I want to stop the recording. Once I’m all done with my call, I’ll click on the red hang up icon. Back within the Rev app, here I can see there’s now another recording, so you don’t necessarily have to initiate the call through the Rev app. All you have to do is call the Rev phone number and that will start the recording. Now that we know how to make phone calls, what if you get an incoming call? How do you record that? When you receive a call, you can also record it. Down below, simply click on the accept button and right here you can add another caller. Basically, the same thing as we did in the last step, and you can add the Rev phone number, or an even easier way to do that is simply return to the Rev app. And within the Rev app, click on the call icon down below. Here let’s click on the Rev number and right now it’s adding the Rev number to this call. Right here, let’s click on merge calls and this has now set-up a conference call with the caller who called me as well as Rev and this is now recording the call. Once you’re all done with your call, simply hang up. Here now within Rev, I can see the incoming call right up here and I can access that recording. If you don’t have a US or Canadian phone number, but you still want to use this, there is a way. First off, go onto your favorite search engine and search for US SMS Verify. This will provide you with a phone number that you can enter into the app. It will then send the verification code to this phone number and that’ll allow you to access the app. Next, you’ll also want to make sure that your cell phone plan supports US calling at a reasonable rate, ideally unlimited calling to the US. Then you could use this app freely. All right, well, that’s how you can record your phone calls on an iPhone. I wish it was maybe just a little bit easier. Thanks Apple.
