Hi,
Yes, Tape A Call Lite is free, you can record a long phone call, but only
listen to the first 60 seconds for free. If you want to be able to listen
to
the entire call or get a copy of it here it what it says:
$9.99 UNLOCKS TONS OF FEATURES
This is also the price if you buy Tape A Call Pro from the start, so you
can
either pay right away or do an in-app purchase, it's pretty useless as a
free version since you can only listen to the first minute of a call.
It appears that this app does nto charge an annual or monthly
subscription,
but it's not a free app and it still uses the method I described, i.e. it
calls a server and then creates a 3-way call, it says so right in the app
description:Also,
* TapeACall requires your carrier to support 3-way calling. *
Here more from frequently asked questions right from the app description:
How does this app record calls?
When you're on a call and you want to record it, open TapeACall and press
the record button. We will put your call on hold and dial our recording
line. As soon as our line answers tap the merge button on your screen to
create a 3 way call between your other caller and our recording line.
If you want to record an outgoing call, just press the record button. The
app will dial our recording line and will begin recording as soon as our
line answers. Once that happens, tap the add call button on your screen,
call the person you want to record, then press the merge button when they
answer.
Are there any additional fees?
We do NOT charge you any additional fees. Please keep in mind that 3-way
calling will use your airtime minutes. Carriers in Canada may charge for
long distance calls, so be sure to check if TapeACall is long distance for
you! If it is, you may be able to get around this by adding TapeACall's
access number as one of your "Fav" numbers so you can call it without
additional airtime usage or carriers fees. If we don't have an access
number
that is considered local by your carrier, please contact us and we'll try
to
get one for you!
My thought, it's not worth it, there is a good chance you have to call
their
server long distance and one reviewer said it only recorded just over a
minute of a 30 minute call even though he had the Pro version.
Regards,
Sieghard

I think a slightly more accurate statement is that in many places it's
illegal to record a phone call without the consent of the participants.
I've been on many teleconferences, and even support calls, where it's
been recorded.

phone calls which is why Apple does not allow such apps.
Having said this, there are apps which claim they can record calls, but
if you look closely they typically all involve a subscription and the
calls go via a server somewhere where the call is recorded remotely.
Often they even involve 2 calls because essentially the app calls a
phone number which connects you to the server and then you call the
number you want to call, it is basically a 3-way call which then is
merged and recorded.
You can, however, get an app like Groundwire which is a VoIP Client. You
then could sign up with a service like Voip Stunt where you buy, for
example, 10 Euros of credit and this allows you to make regular phone
calls via voice over internet protocol (VoIP). Groundwire has a "Record"
button which is available once you press Call and the phone starts
ringing. By default there is a beep every 15 seconds to indicate that
the call is being recorded, but you can turn this off.
If you want to be able to record incoming calls this way you would have
to obtain an inbound VoIP number from some service like Flynumber,
register it with another service like Sip2Sip.com and then use the
account information in Groundwie to set it up for incoming calls.
It's a bit complicated, but it can be done and it works OK. An inbound
number from Flynumber.com costs $2.95 US a month and they offer US and
Canadian numbers, not sure about other countries.

Sieghard
