Nothing like that on the Samsungs I've owned. Next phone will be a Pixel, so we'll see.

> Next phone will be a Pixel, so we'll see.

Pixels don't have call recording enabled (in most regions?). It's frustrating that I'm forced to use a third party app to provide a feature that the phone app should have built-in, but Google decided I can't be trusted with.

EDIT: It used to be geo-blocked, now it's "This feature isn't available on Pixel."

In an active call, tap the 3 dot menu up at the top right, you should see the option to record.
That just gets me an option for "Start RTT Call". Nothing like call recording.

I'm on an S10e, which is not that new, so that could be part of it. I bought an older phone, because I really like my top grain leather case, so I wanted to get a phone which fit the case more than I wanted a more cutting edge phone.

At least GrapheneOS does have a built-in recording function.
