One UI 9.5 could let Samsung’s Phone app record voice calls made through third-party VoIP apps, including WhatsApp, Telegram and Google Meet. The feature appears as a new setting in the Phone app that specifically targets calls originating from third-party messaging and calling platforms.
In the Phone app, navigating to Settings > Call recordings and transcripts reveals an option named “Record calls in other apps.” Tapping it opens a screen with an Available apps section that lists WhatsApp, Google Meet and Telegram. Each listed app has an individual toggle to enable or disable call recording for that specific service.
Samsung has offered voice call recording for cellular calls on Galaxy phones for several years, but until now recording calls made via third-party apps required using separate, potentially risky tools. One UI 9.5’s new option aims to address that limitation by integrating third-party VoIP recording into the stock Phone app.
One UI 9.5 and regional limits on call recording
The availability of the third-party call recording option could be restricted by country or region because of local laws. In some jurisdictions, the phone may announce to the person on the other end of the call that their voice is being recorded. Samsung could add support for more third-party calling apps in the future; only the compatible apps installed on the test device were displayed in the Available apps list.
