[Support added for more devices] Xiaomi phones likely to get native call recording feature by the end of 2020

New updates are being added at the bottom of this story…….

Original story (published on June 17, 2020) follows:

Xiaomi’s MIUI is one of the most feature-packed Android skins out there. Matter of fact, fans of the skin love it for the sheer number of options it offers them on top of AOSP.

This usually involves having in-house apps that offer more features than the pre-installed Google apps. The Google Phone or Dialer app, for instance, doesn’t support native call recording on Xiaomi phones that have the app pre-installed.

In case you missed it, well, Xiaomi phones sold in Europe come pre-installed with the Google Dialer app in place of Xiaomi’s in-house Mi Dialer app. This, essentially, robs these phones off one of the most sought-after features in native call recording.

As seen above, owners of various Xiaomi devices on the EU ROM badly want the native call recording feature and are, in fact, willing to flash the Indian ROM just so as to use the call recording feature that comes baked into the MIUI Dialer app.

At this point, though, no one knows when exactly Xiaomi devices using the Google Dialer app will get support for native call recording. But with the likes of Nokia (Android One) devices already receiving it, there is light at the end of the tunnel for affected Xiaomi users as well.
