NoteCube한국어Quick answer
On iOS 18.1 or later, tap More (…) → Call Recording during a call. Both people hear that the call is being recorded, and the recording is saved in the Call Recordings folder in Notes, with a transcript. To get a meeting-style summary with decisions and action items, use Save Audio Files in Notes, then import the file into NoteCube.
How it works
Start recording during the call
Tap More (…) → Call Recording. On iOS 18, tap the record button on the call screen. Both participants hear an announcement.
Find it in Notes
After the call, open the Call Recordings folder in Notes to play the audio and read the transcript.
Save the audio file
Open the recording in Notes and choose Save Audio Files to save it to the Files app.
Import into NoteCube
In NoteCube, tap Record → Import a file and pick the audio. You get the transcript plus a summary, decisions and action items.
Recording calls on Samsung Galaxy
In the Samsung Phone app, tap More options (⋮) → Settings → Record calls → Auto record calls, and choose all calls, unsaved numbers or specific numbers. To record a single call, tap Record during the call. Recordings are saved in My Files → Internal storage → Recordings → Call; import them into NoteCube the same way. Recording works only in the preloaded Samsung Phone app, may be unavailable in some countries, and menu names vary by device and One UI version.
Don’t see Call Recording?
Make sure you’re on iOS 18.1 or later. Call recording works for one-to-one phone and FaceTime audio calls and isn’t available in some countries and regions, including the EU.
Consent rules differ
Consent rules differ by country and, in the US, by state. US federal law allows recording when you are a party to the call or one party has consented (18 U.S.C. §2511(2)(d)); California requires the consent of all parties for confidential communications (Penal Code §632). Apple asks you to make sure the other person is willing to be recorded. Tell them before you start. This is general information, not legal advice.

Frequently asked questions
Will the other person know?
Yes. With the built-in iPhone call recording, both participants hear an announcement when recording starts.
The iPhone already transcribes calls. Why use NoteCube?
If you only need a transcript, Notes may be enough. NoteCube helps when you want decisions and action items, mixed Korean–English calls organized, or calls and meetings kept together and shared as text.
Is it free?
Your first 60 cumulative transcription minutes in NoteCube are free, and summaries of transcribed content are free on every plan.
