Hi,
Try Below

To disable call recording on a Samsung phone, open the Phone app, go to Settings, then select "Record calls". From there, you can turn off the "Auto record calls" option. Additionally, you can remove existing recordings by going to Recordings and selecting "Delete recordings".

Steps to Disable Auto Call Recording:

Open the Phone app: Locate and open the Phone app on your Samsung device.

Access Settings: Tap the three dots (More options) icon, usually in the top right corner, and select "Settings" from the menu.

Navigate to Record calls: Scroll down and tap on "Record calls".

Turn off Auto record calls: If it's enabled, toggle the switch next to "Auto record calls" to the off position.

Steps to Delete Existing Recordings:

Open the Phone app: Go back to the main Phone app screen.

Access Recordings: Tap on "Recordings".

Delete recordings: Select the recordings you wish to delete and tap "Delete recordings".

There's no "auto record calls" option on my phone. I never approved of having my calls automatically recorded and now I have people who refuse to contact me because of this.

Hi
If you can't find the option directly, try searching for "call settings" or "auto call recording" within the phone's settings. Alternatively, you might find the setting under "More connections" or a similar category. If you're still having trouble, you can try searching for "Call recording" within the settings search bar.

Unfortunately, like many others, my phone does not have an option to toggle off 'auto record calls'. I've had a Samsung phone for years....this will be the last one.

The record icon appears when a call is in progress. I cannot remove the icon. My face hits this sometimes and the my calls get recorded. The person on the other end of the call, often, is uncomfortable with this.

This happened with the last update. How do I remove this feature?

Samsung is shoving stupid irrational things down our throats constantly, this is another example. I want to turn it off, remove it from the call screen, my wife's phone lets her tap it with her face all the time.

Samsung!! Let people control their devices and how they work, what software they want to keep or delete ,including your bloatware!

Hey im having the same problem. Not happy at all

Same problem with my face hitting the record button during a call, and no way to disable the option. I talk with federal agents and prosecutors all the time for work -- they literally won't speak with me by phone now! I'm due for an upgrade but will definitely have to switch manufacturers if I can't use my phone for work.

I cannot seem to find the option to stop calls recording. Its so strange as only started happening recently.

Unfortunately I cannot find any option to stop calls recording. I can delete what has been deleted, but not stop it happening.

In the middle of a call with my mother we both heard a voice saying our call was being recorded. Not sure if it was my end or hers. In any case, I'm having trouble disabling this recording feature on my s20+ as well. All the above mentioned steps to locate the setting simply don't work. The setting doesn't exist and the 'tape' icon doesn't appear when I did a test call afterwards. Is this feature only on the newer Samsung phones?

Its really annoying.

That doesn't solve the problem. The problem is that with one of the updates, Samsung has added a record icon that pops up after you are engaged in a phone call. If your face hits that icon, then the recording starts. If we could stop the icon from popping up when you make or receive calls, then the problem would be solved. I've tried everything and cannot find a way to get rid of that feature. I have an S24 Ultra.

How disgraceful that they have the option to turn it off in other parts of the world but not in Europe. I thought we had left Europe with Brexit? This is what is online about it.

"LAST RESORT: Carrirer/Region restrictions.
* In certain regions (e.g. EU) Samsung forces auto call recordings for saved contact calls only and doesn't let users disable it.

This does not work in the UK as no Auto record button at all. It's like having a spy on the phone as the record icon and so easily be switched on by accident, it's in the WRONG PLACE at least put it in the center of the screen, not on the edge where you hand or face can knock it!

I hope you get this being the thread is 4 months old. I have an a 15 and the option to stop the recording or disable it is not there. I go to settings and it says, record calls. I tap on it and all it gives me is delete history and that's it. How do I stop the auto recording of the phone calls If it doesn't give me the option in settings.

I wish that Samsung would just give us the option of disabling it. Or, yes, put it in a place where you cannot accidentally hit it.
