Google to soon remove third-party call recording apps

Google

For a long time, Google has tried to limit third-party call recording applications on its Android operating system. The APIs that allowed developers to implement call recording features into their apps were removed with Android 6 Marshmallow. In addition, with Android 10, Google eliminated any workarounds that developers had used to allow call recording in their apps. Additionally, the business disabled the ability to record calls using the microphone. As a last resort, the corporation is also eliminating Android’s Accessibility APIs. “The Accessibility API is not designed and cannot be requested for remote call audio recording,” Google said on a support page documenting the changes in its Developer Program Policy. As of May 11, Google’s Android mobile operating system will no longer offer recording features in applications.
