iPhone 8+ Need to record conversation.

Long story short a company I rep is going to call me tomorrow to tell me they’ve been sold to discuss retuning of inventory and more importantly compensation. It’s their year-end 9-30 and I’ve made my numbers etc and I’m owed a pretty substantial bonus. I’m sure they are going to fedex me something but I’d like to get it on “tape” that I’ve met my numbers and I’m getting my money.

Is there an app or something ya’ll have used for this?

 

Put call on speakerphone and use any sort of recorder you have handy.

 

There is a built in app called voice memos. Just ask Siri to open it and hit record and you’ll be set

 

I can do that if it’s in my office but there’s no set time for the call. I’m not in my office for the next couple weeks and looking for other options.

 

Make yourself aware if you are in a one-party consent state or a two-party consent state. If two-party, recording the other party without their knowledge is considered wire tapping and a felony.

 

This is true...I live in DC. A one party consent state if there ever was one

 

Is there some reason you think the follow up email won’t have the same message as the call you’re expecting?

 

MO is 1 party

 

I’m probably being paranoid but all the people I know/trust were all let go today. So in the words of my attorney “the more proof the better” is where I’m at.

 

Well there ya go.

 

Yes it is and it’s no joke, especially when it comes to business. I could see how this goes “I have you recorded, give me my bonus”. Sure, you can use it for bail money

 

Yup. One day, if we ever manage to go fishing together, I'll tell you a not funny story.

 

Depends what state your in and what the wire tapping laws are in that state. If you violate those laws the recording no matter what the content says is null in void for civil and/or criminal proceedings because it was obtained illegally and also could subject you to criminal charges if it’s in a formal enough fashion.

 

That’s why you should only record stuff being discussed out on the ocean. Far out

 

I’ve had about enough of this day. Heading out in about 15 minutes, I’ll take a nap in the boat for a couple hours in between fishing.

 

Unless they updated it, it used to not allow call conversations to be recorded. Would auto shut-off during calls, to avoid the legal issues mentioned above.

 

Er... meant to quote this, for the above reply.

 

You are hosed Snack
Come get your motorcycle
It's junk not worth riding

 

Wow. You’re going to record someone without their knowledge? Wow.

 

Does it matter if the call recorder is in a one party consent state while the other party is in a 2 party consent state?

Is it a matter of the location of the recording device?
