Samsung to Introduce Call Recording for WhatsApp in New Update
New Delhi, November 10: Samsung is set to enhance its Galaxy smartphone experience by introducing a much-anticipated feature in its upcoming One UI 9.5 update. Users will soon have the ability to record voice calls made through popular third-party applications such as WhatsApp, Telegram, and Google Meet. Currently, Galaxy phone users rely on various methods or third-party tools to record calls from these apps. However, with the new update, this functionality will be integrated directly into Samsung’s default Phone app.
According to leaks, the One UI 9.5 update will introduce an option named ‘Record calls in other apps’ within the Phone app’s settings. This will allow users to manage call recordings for different applications seamlessly. For instance, if a user wants to record calls only from WhatsApp and Telegram, they can enable recording for these apps while disabling it for Google Meet.
Privacy considerations are also expected to be addressed with this feature. Reports suggest that the availability of call recording may vary based on local laws in different countries. In some regions, users may receive an audio alert informing them that the call is being recorded. However, it remains unclear how this feature will be implemented in India.
Samsung has not yet officially announced the inclusion of this feature in One UI 9.5, and details regarding which Galaxy smartphone models will receive the update are still pending. Clarity on the release date and eligible devices is expected to be provided by the company soon.
