Follow us with passion Apple Developers ConferenceWe saw how technologies such as “Apple Intelligence” changed the rules of the game, and took artificial intelligence technologies on phones a great leap forward. In fact, we salivated as we saw the features of this technology, especially when Apple mentioned that, thanks to this technology, it is finally possible to record calls on the iPhone without any external applications, and the matter will not be limited to recording only, but even further, what was recorded will be written in text and summarized on Automatically based on advanced artificial intelligence techniques. Here's everything we know so far about recording calls on the iPhone in the iOS 18 update.
Thanks to new artificial intelligence features, Apple will soon allow iPhone users to record phone calls and convert them into written text, and you can get summaries of them.
During a phone call, the phone app will include a button that records the conversation when pressed. When this process begins, the other party on the call will receive a notification, or alert, letting them know that the call is being recorded. Even with this notice, iPhone users will have to follow local laws, and may be required to obtain prior approval before recording the call on the iPhone.
While recording, the phone app will display an audio wave with the recording time. The process of converting the call to text will take place in the Notes application in real time during the call, and you can also get a summary of the call created with Apple Intelligence technology.
As for the Notes app, you will also be able to make recordings, which will be converted to text in real time and create summaries from within the app itself, in addition to the phone app.
The iOS 18 update preview page indicates that the audio transcribing and converting feature will be available for iPhone 12 and later in English, Spanish, German, French, Japanese, Mandarin Chinese, Cantonese and Portuguese. Of course, other languages will be added successively.
Unfortunately, Arabic is not available at launch
Some mysterious points related to the call recording feature in iOS 18
The feature of recording calls on the iPhone was talked about for only 30 seconds by Craig Federighi during the opening keynote of the Worldwide Developers Conference WWDC 2024. It is not clear whether there are restrictions on the recordings or not.
Will this feature be limited to calls between iPhone users only, or calls between iPhone users running the iOS 18 update, or will it work with calls between a compatible iPhone and a phone other than the iPhone? This is what we hope to know before the final version of the iOS 18 update is released next September.
Other benefits of the call recording and text conversion feature in iOS 18
The ability to record phone calls and convert them to text while calling is an exciting new feature for users of iPhones and other devices, as it is completely new to smartphones.
But the ability to summarize calls shouldn't be overlooked either. This feature will be very useful when you need to remember the main points of a phone call later. The summary will be generated using Apple Intelligence technology that was announced during the Worldwide Developers Conference.
These new features will make it easier for users to retain the content of phone calls and remember the most important points and necessary details from them later.
When will we get the call recording feature on the iPhone?
In fact, Apple did not mention any details about when this feature will be available, but it will certainly be available later like other features, which may be in trial versions. The beta version of the iOS 18 update is now available to developers, and will be available to the public sometime next month. If you can't wait to use the new features, install the beta version on your device. However, be aware that these beta versions are unstable, so it may be better to wait until the final version is released, or even at least wait for the public beta.
We previously wrote an article about how you can record phone calls right now, read this article.

I have a feeling that there will be no audio recording in the known sense
It will be an audio recording only for the purpose of the artificial intelligence extracting the text of the call, not that you will find a voice memo of the call
this is what I feel
Hi Ayman 🙋♂️, your theory is really interesting! But it seems that Apple intends to record actual calls and convert them to text, not just extract the text from the call. So, we'll need to wait for the official release to be sure 💡.
I was comfortable with the people who own an iPhone that Apple prevents call recording, and this is a very convenient thing, and the courts must prepare in countries around the world because profits will increase by 1000%, and the reason is the joy of the trolls, the mistakes of the people, and the happiness of the fraudsters to win legal cases around the world will increase, and people will also be happy to obtain money to file a lawsuit. The issue of espionage, and from here Apple will allow the creation of a class of professionals in this field. Oh my God, we want an iPhone and we do not want Android. Tim Cook converted the iPhone to Android. What remains are the icons and curved corners of the iPhone. He removed the silent button. He removed the Apple cable. He allowed applications to be downloaded from everywhere. Where is the privacy? Where is the privacy? Security in iOS
👋 Hello Arkan, I feel that you have a lot of concerns about the new updates. But let me reassure you that Apple pays great attention to privacy and security in all its updates. For call recording, the other party will be notified that the call is being recorded, this increases transparency and trust. 📞🔴
Regarding the issue of privacy and security, Apple considers it a major priority in developing the iOS system. Regarding downloading applications from everywhere, we must not forget that Apple has strict standards for accepting applications in its store, which guarantees the quality and security of the applications available. 🛡️📱
Don't worry, innovation is always part of Apple's DNA! 🍏💡
Happy New Year
Guys, I don't know why people want the iPhone to become like Android. If Apple adds a feature to the iPhone, they say it's been in Android for a long time. One thanks God that they added one of the features in Android, right?
Hello Sultan Muhammad 👋, you bring up a really important point. Indeed, when Apple adds a new feature to the iPhone, some might say it was present in Android before. However, Apple always strives to provide these features in a unique, innovative and stable way, and this is what makes the iPhone special. The most important thing is not who added the feature first, but rather how it was applied and introduced into the system in general. 🍎😉
They are crying and laughing, this feature has been in the Galaxy for 12 years
Hello Shadi 🙋♂️, You are talking about a feature that has been present in the Galaxy for 12 years, but isn’t it interesting when Apple adds its own touch? 🍏 It is not just a recording of calls, but there is also the conversion of calls into text and the preparation of summaries of them thanks to Apple Intelligence. There's always something new and exciting in the world of Apple! 😄📱
What distinguishes Apple from others is that any technology it introduces is still an absurdity or an imitation, but rather it is created in a distinctive way that others follow in their falsification.
Nice explanation, but my opinion about recording is that it is useless and does not keep up with other phones. Also, the issue is that it is only thirty seconds and that the other party must know that you are recording a problem.
They did not say that it was only 30 seconds, but rather the open article stated that Apple talked about this feature quickly for 30 seconds and did not give it much clarification to make them understand more details about it.
Thank you for explaining it to us
Will new sounds be added in iOS 18?
