Does anyone know any call recorder that works well on Android 12? I have tried several but the one that seems to work the most is Cube ACR, which because Google changed the Android policies is no longer possible to work as it used to, and in my case I can hear my own voice in calls and not the other person's, which in my use case makes it useless.

I Have an Honor phone, european version, with android 13, and I can record calls, installing the official apk call recorder from an Honor asian version

In some regions, Android allows call recording natively. Most regions however, this is not allowed and the native call recording features are not available at all.

This does not follow which regions can legally record, just googles arbitrary layout (which from what I can find isn't actually published either, please correct me if you find a source). I'm in a region where call recording is legal, however these features are not available natively or via third party apps.

Yes, I know. I live in Spain. In Spain it is legal to record a conversation without warning, if you participate in it. Yes, you can't share it with other... but you can use it in a trial as evidence, in fact it happens every day. So I don't know why Google decides to eliminate the function of recording calls if it is legal in my country

I'm in Canada where it's even less restricted: I can record any conversation that I'm a part of, and can freely do whatever I like with that recording.

Google says no though, so no recording for me at all anymore.

TBH it's one of the reasons I may finally root my phone.
