How To Use Call Recording and Transcription In iOS 18.1?

Congratulations- Apple has now officially launched the iOS 18.1 beta version to provide new features powered by Artificial Intelligence (AI) and keep their users updated on the tech. 

In 2024, Apple took AI so seriously that all its updates revolved around it. 

And why it shouldn’t be?

AI is the future and Apple knows it very well therefore, it’s finding every possible opportunity to capitalize on and capture the substantial market share. 

Speaking of the update, Apple has introduced the “Call Recording” feature which will allow users to capture important conversations with just a click. Be it office meetings, personal calls, or interviews, this new AI-powered feature will add convenience and functionality to your iPhone. 

Here’s what the big man has to say,

Tim Cook (CEO, of Apple) wrote on X that “Artificial Intelligence is a gateway to several possibilities for users. It is exciting to see our developers begin to build with it.” 

Even during the “Apple Worldwide Developers Conference”, Apple teased that the AI features will be coming in the iPhone 16 series in September. However, the recent news said that the launch is delayed and might kick in “October”. 

How Does Call Recording Feature Work on iPhone?

The moment you receive a call or you want to make a call, you can easily enable recording on your iPhone. All you need to do is simply tap on the record button located in the top left corner of the screen. 

But here’s the catch! 

When you click on the button, all the participants connected via call will hear the sound “The Call is Being Recorded”. With this notification, everyone will have an assurance that their voices are being recorded.

Now, you might be wondering if this feature is already available on Android devices, and how is this feature different from “Apple”.

Once the call is recorded, your Apple device will provide a written transcript of the conversation. One of the highlights of such a feature is that it offers multiple language support which ensures all countries can benefit from it. 

The transcription feature supports a wide range of languages which include;

  • English 
  • Spanish 
  • German 
  • French 
  • Mandarin Chinese
  • Japanese
  • Portuguese
  • Cantonese 

What is Special About Call Recording Feature in iOS 18.1?

Unlike other third-party apps in Android to record calls, the built-in AI-powered call recording feature of iOS 18.1 can generate a summary of key points discussed during the call. With such an innovative feature, users can quickly review the important aspects of the conversation without playing the entire call recording. 

Besides call recording updates, iOS 18.1 is getting many more updates. Now, users can access a new search interface for call history which helps them to find past calls. Furthermore, the software update comes with an autofill feature which allows your Apple device to complete the mobile number of the person as soon as you start typing initial digits. 

On the other hand, if you have multiple SIM cards, then you can effortlessly switch them between calls to make it convenient. 

Recently, Apple also made some changes to its “Notes” app. Now, users can easily record and get a live transcript directly in the app. But the update only works in the model iPhone 12 or higher.
