FULL STORY
======================================================================Call 
Recording is rolling out to the Pixel 6 and newer This feature is coming to 
phones that don't support Call Notes It allows you to record calls through 
the Phone app 

If you have one of Googles latest phones, then you may well have access to 
Call Notes  an AI-powered feature that can record your calls and make 
transcripts and summaries of them. This feature is now quite widely 
available, with the latest Pixel Feature Drop bringing it to more countries 
too, including the UK and Australia. But not all Pixels support this, and if 
yours doesnt, Google has an alternative. 

The company has started rolling out Call Recording to all models from the 
Pixel 6 up that dont support Call Notes. In practice, that means the Pixel 6 
series, the Pixel 7 series, the Pixel 8 series, and the Pixel 9a . 

To get it, you additionally need Android 14 or above and the latest version 
of the Phone app, then just open the Phone app, head to its settings screen, 
and tap Call Recording. The Google Pixel 8 can use Call Recording (Image

On this screen youll find a few options, including one to turn Call Recording 
on and another to automatically record calls with non-contacts. You can also 
choose to automatically record calls from specific numbers, and you can 
manage if and when recordings are automatically deleted. 

So configure all this to your liking, but at a minimum youll probably want to 
enable the Call Recording toggle, so you at least have the option to record 
calls. With that done, once on a call youll find the option to record the 
conversation in the Call Assist menu, which will be visible on the call 
screen. 

Once you tap the Call Recording button, there will be a countdown followed by 
a message that tells everyone on the call that its being recorded. To stop 
recording mid-call, hit the Stop button in the Call Assist menu. And to play 
the recording after the call, youll find it in the Home tab of the Phone app. 

So this is a potentially useful feature, and its nice to see Google trying to 
come up with alternative options for phones that dont support its advanced AI 
tools.
