Truecaller to End Call Recording Support on iPhones from September 30: What Users Need to Know

iPhone users using Truecaller’s call recording feature must act soon. The company has officially announced that the feature will be discontinued on iOS devices starting September 30, 2025. This decision comes in light of Apple introducing its own native call recording functionality in newer iOS versions, making third-party recording tools like Truecaller redundant.

🔕 Why Is Truecaller Removing Call Recording on iPhones?

Unlike Android, where Truecaller integrates directly with the phone’s calling system, Apple’s restrictive iOS policies forced Truecaller to use a workaround. On iPhones, call recording required merging the call with a separate recording line, a method that was technically complex and expensive to maintain.

Now that Apple has rolled out built-in recording features, Truecaller is shifting focus to enhance other essential tools for iPhone users — such as Live Caller ID and automatic spam detection.

💡 What iPhone Users Should Do Before September 30

If you’ve used Truecaller to record calls on your iPhone, your existing recordings will be deleted permanently after September 30. Here’s how to back up your recordings safely:

Steps to Save Your Truecaller Recordings:

• Open the Truecaller app on your iPhone.
• Navigate to the ‘Record’ tab.
• Tap the Settings icon.
• Go to ‘Storage Preference’ and switch to ‘iCloud Storage’.
• If disabled, enable it via:
• Settings > Your Name > iCloud > Truecaller > Turn ON
• To save specific recordings, return to the ‘Record’ tab, swipe left on the desired recording, and tap ‘Share or Export’.
• Choose a destination such as local storage, iCloud, or another cloud service.

🔍 What’s Next for iPhone Users?

With the exit of the recording feature, Truecaller will now invest in improving features that offer real-time caller identification and robust spam protection on iOS — aligning better with Apple’s privacy-first approach while still adding value for users.
