Call Recording is for all other devices and does not offer transcription or summaries.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Once available, go to Phone app &gt; Settings &gt; Call Recording for a setup\/download process. Afterwards, open the Call Assist menu during a conversation to activate. You can also \u201cAutomatically record calls with non-contacts\u201d and specify numbers that always record.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s a countdown before the spoken message that notifies everyone on the line that you\u2019re recording. You can tap \u201cStop\u201d mid-call to end. Recordings appear in the Home tab with a microphone icon and inline player.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\tAdvertisement &#8211; scroll for more content<\/p>\n<p>You can have recordings automatically delete after 7, 14, 30 days, or Never, with \u201cDelete all\u201d available in settings.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Call Recording is available on \u201cPixel 6 and up with Android 14 and up.\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/support.google.com\/phoneapp\/answer\/9803950\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Officially<\/a>:<\/p>\n<p>You must be in a country or region where call recording is supported. Call recording is widely available, but not in all countries or regions. Features vary based on your country or region.<\/p>\n<p>This wider Call Recording availability was announced <a href=\"https:\/\/9to5google.com\/2025\/09\/29\/pixel-phone-app-updates\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">in September<\/a>, with Google noting how the \u201cexpansion to new countries will roll out through the rest of the year.\u201d In November, we saw broad US availability, but people reported not getting it in Europe.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Over the past few days, we\u2019ve seen more reports from European countries about Call Recording going live.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, with the Pixel 10a launch, Google told us that \u201call markets\u201d and languages would get Call Recording in the Phone app by the end of February, or before the new device hits store shelves.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\"
