Need to record my calls without announcing it to the other party. I need it for iphone only. Can’t use a second phone/recorder. What could you recommend?

Is it legal? Here in France I think one is legally bound to warn the other person if they’re recording a conversation (and that’s a good thing, imho)
I live in Asia and here it’s completely legal.
It’s state-by-state in the US. Some states allow it if just one person wants to record a call. The others require both/all people to know and approve. The fun part is when somebody in a one-party state calls somebody in a two-party state…
Depends on the location.
There exists “one party consent” recording laws that mean that as long as anyone involved in the conversation consents to being recorded, the entire conversation can be recorded. But it also requires that you are only talking to someone else in the same one party consent area.
For example, if you lived in Virginia, you could record a conversation with someone else that lives in Virginia without informing them. But if you called someone in Illinois you’d have to tell them, even if the call and recording started in Virginia.
Most recording apps probably prefer to not have to keep track of all the legalities and just prefer to notify everyone, so they don’t get sued.
Agree with what you are saying. From outside of the US different laws govern how this is done. Some countries are one party and some are two party
In the US it’s really convoluted.
In some cases the state you are calling TO has the say. In some cases the law the state you are calling FROM has the say as to question if you can record.
It depends on how state laws are wrote. It also depends on certain court decisions. It also depends on certain federal laws and certain federal court decisions.
This helps to explain it a little better
Varies wildly. I’m in a US state for instance that doesn’t require you to inform the other party.
Same with my state (NM).
(also France) I think you have to warn only if the recording is going to be share to other people (like hotline are recording to review it later, probably to check on the employee)
I think you can record anythingwithout notice, but you can’t publish it, or share it with somebody else
A lawyer told me that recording conversation with your employer is legal, even unannounced, so I guess the same apply here. And it’s usable in court (so you can share it with your legal team)
thx for the clarification :)
Do you know of any call recorder that announces that it’s recording ? Mine doesnt…
I never needed to record phone calls so I would not know, sorry.
