      Have you asked it out

  • BuyNow Think Later on 08/06/2017 - 21:38

    saved direct to Dropbox

    Does it app automatically save to Dropbox or you have to manually copy recorded calls to Dropbox?

    • BluBoy on 08/06/2017 - 21:41

      It saves to your phone, then uploads to $CloudService.

      You can specify how long to store them on phone/cloud, and when to upload them (eg only on wifi)

    • Shads on 08/06/2017 - 21:41

      Does it automatically, very easy to setup in the app. Saves the file as soon as the phone call ends.

      Don't know when I would need to refer back to them but it's there!

    Does the app automatically tell the other caller they are being recorded ?

  • [Deactivated] on 08/06/2017 - 22:14

    Would this be a good app to use while talking to tenants renting my property

    • INFIDEL on 08/06/2017 - 23:41

      Depends if recording conversation is legal in your state. See previous deal for some details.

      • Op54 on 09/06/2017 - 09:57

        I understood that differences regarding "legal" differences in this instance would be about recording a chat you are having with someone face to face. The recording of a telephone call between parties would be under Federal law only, as it is Federal (Telecommunications interception act). To record a conversation between parties over the telco network would require a federal court warrant to do so. I guess if nobody knew you did it, then what the hey, but if you tried to use that illegal interception in a court to "go after" your tenants, you may be in deep DoDooo's in a federal court for a breach of the telecommunications interception act (Or please correct me if there is no warrant when it relates to a civil tenant matter).

        See this acma info sheet about the Australian TIA: http://www.acma.gov.au/~/media/Consumer%20Interests/Fact%20s…

    • INFIDEL on 09/06/2017 - 10:30

      I just make very good notes of important conversations - which may or may not be derived from a recording…

      In complex matters it is always recommended to take good notes in case there is a dispute

      Corresponding with the other party by email, etc gives a better (legal) record for both parties & should improve communication to avoid escalating disputes.

      But finding out your landlord is secretly "spying" on you would not improve relations. Up there with hidden cameras to "protect" your property you rent…

        Well I was intending to record the calls to listen back and see if they were having a party or anything like that. That way I can do a drive by

        Sometimes I will park around the corner from my investment property and fly my drone over the property. This gives me an indication if I can then fly into the backyard and check things out in closer detail

    Well, this is something to spend the google rewards credits on!

    PSA: Recording calls with an app and not letting the other party know is not legal where I reside, in WA.. but legal in all other states (As far as I'm aware, not a lawyer and this is not legal advice, please seek legal advice if it is needed)

    • Frugal on 08/06/2017 - 23:00

      NSW makes it an offence without consent (some exceptions) http://www.austlii.edu.au/au/legis/nsw/consol_act/sda2007210…

      • dfaktz on 08/06/2017 - 23:20

        If 2007 is the latest Consolidation in those acts then you are indeed correct and I'm a little confused how we missed it last time when the thread was like 3 pages long. Thanks, would edit original if I could.

        • Op54 on 09/06/2017 - 15:28

          @insular: If you are saying that in SA you can intercept telephone calls within the network without warrant?, well, that site talks about surveillance devices rather than interception I think, (listening devices and trackers etc), and is specific to SA, and I think you will find that this SA act does not override a Federal act or Law covering the same matters. Federal laws take precedence over a state ones, I could not see any indication when searching that South Australian laws exceed the powers of a Federal law (Not having a go here @insular, but I can see why Federal law covers and takes precedence for national telecommunications systems)

        • insular on 09/06/2017 - 17:55
          +1

          @Op54: they specifically mention phones as being an example of a listening device. with built in recording capabilities. you can argue that the phone already has that 'recording capability' the app just enables it.

          if there's a federal law or act allowing recording of phone conversations without consent, i'd love to see it.

          the funny thing is, that it seems to be pretty random whether a judge will accept a phone or general recording as evidence. ie. murder trials sure (eg. gabe tosster). unfair dismissal in a workplace? probably not. unless a lot of money is involved.

        • Op54 on 09/06/2017 - 18:26

          @insular: Wires crossed I think. I did not say that I think you can record conversations without consent. Quite the opposite. As far as I understand, you cannot record a phone conversation between parties without a Federal court warrant. Sorry if you thought that I was on the other side of this fence :-)

        • insular on 09/06/2017 - 18:43

          @Op54: maybe just have a read of this whole reply tree that i replied to and re-read your reply and see where the wires are crossed.

          PSA: Recording calls with an app and not letting the other party know is not legal where I reside, in WA.. but legal in all other states

          was probably the trigger here, which is why i asked for more info. i never thought this would be the case, and dfaktz didnt even say where he lives. could be the USA for all we know, where in some states it is legal (one party consent).

          never heard of any state in AU allowing any kind of recording (phone or private meeting) without consent.

          however, as mentioned, it really depends on the severity of the crime. recording someone and then have them attempt to kill you, threaten you etc. no-one is likely to care that YOU were breaking the law.

          easiest example is donald trump's (profanity) grabbing comments.

          this is a power that should never be wielded unless it's absolutely necessary.

          i'd love to have an automated recording at the start of every phone call i answer to state that it is 'being recorded' and if you do not consent 'hang up now'. otherwise you consent.

    My Asus phone has a button during call to record the call so don't need any app to do it. But good for anyone else.

    • k0ka2 on 08/06/2017 - 23:56

      I have a Mi 5 and there is a call recording option in the call settings. I also got the HDM Call Recorder Pro when it was free for my Samsung Note 4 which also have a cloud save option eg. dropbox http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/298594

    Its legal as long as you yell out at the start: "this call might be recorded for training and educational purposes".

    • BadGiraffe on 09/06/2017 - 15:15

      You could just simply whisper, "This call is being recorded… tee hee hee…"

      Is it legal in NSW if the other party involved consents to being recorded?

      • joelmuzz on 09/06/2017 - 07:36

        They don't have to consent, just be aware.
        Ironically some businesses which give you the record message have a policy of ending the call if you tell them you are recording.

          Reckon it should be free game for the other party to record if one party is.

      Not illegal if you tell them you're recording the call.

    There are many uses such rememberibg the groceries lists. How many times did we come back home with only half the list :)

    Or you call some service provider of some sort, they promise and not deliver, at least you remember the name of person you spoke to so you can call them back. May be when they announce they are recording for training purposes you also announce same citing memory loss.

    Maybe the government will give me their recordings of all my conversations if I really need them.

    • Op54 on 09/06/2017 - 10:03

      Are you thinking that you may be on an Australian government "watch list" or something Risto? :-) Imagine the size of the storage that would be required to hold all those voice calls from every call in Australia (If you think that every call, that everyone makes is being stored somewhere), and then storing that for 5 years too. It would be beyond something that I could imagine, And the cost of that storage alone (We are talking server class SAN drives right,not OzBargain priced WD computer hard drives :-) . Too easy to get all X Files about this stuff.

      • joelmuzz on 09/06/2017 - 11:05

        More likely they run speech to text processing over everything they intercept and keep that, text shrinks down to almost nothing.
        It needs to go to text for automated trigger words/phrases and processing anyway.

        NSA probably does. Aus government cant even run a Census or grocery prices website so I doubt they have much of anything.

        All this logging is pointless because anyone malicious with an actual brain will use Signal for encrypted calls/messaging and TOR/VPN to hide web access.
        I guess a lot of maniacs have no actual brain though so they get some hits.

      • Diji1 on 09/06/2017 - 11:20

        Are you thinking that you may be on an Australian government "watch list" or something Risto? :-)

        Because you seem to be asleep about what the Australian government has already done: the metadata of every electronic communication of every single Australian is recorded by the Australian gummints for two years. YOU ARE ON THE WATCH LIST ALREADY while you casually joke about it.

        Imagine the size of the storage that would be required to hold all those voice calls from every call in Australia (If you think that every call, that everyone makes is being stored somewhere), and then storing that for 5 years too. It would be beyond something that I could imagine

        You are truly asleep sir. Not only is this possible the NSA has already done it for a nation of 300 million people. Australia is 10% of the size of the USA. The only reason we know the NSA did this is because of leaks. It is more than possible that the gummint is recording everything - it can already legally do it under the Five Eyes intelligence agreement where the US, UK, NZ and CA spy on Australia at the request of Australian intelligence.

        • Op54 on 09/06/2017 - 15:53

          @Diji: I am just waking up :-) So the Australian government has SAN's with at the very least least multiples of exabytes of storage, and the same storage capacity again to have a backup/ copy of that data too. So that is why the country is in the red, that is a lot of server storage, and lots more money that we do not have.

          Not disagreeing about the storage and interception of all the metadata (Turn-BULLS comment) or plain data side, not at all (And I know that data is far reaching, more than most people would think). I understood that our Federal Government can now hold up to 5 years of data (Then it falls off unless there is something of interest in it for them), this is to protect us all from all those nasty people here, the ones that do not use VPN :-) . This data would be the number you called, the cell tower you were talking with, maybe the other cells being held for hand over by the network as well(So they would be able to get a rough idea where you were as you make calls with this), or as you are simply walking around, as you mobile is polling cells as you move around right? The other data is your surfing, and I would assume that data would include the data that made up your text sms etc (That can be built back into words), pages you visit (I know that TurBULL said it is only metadata, not the page, but that data gets you the pages right, but capturing and storing the original audio files, or your video calls.. Not so sure about holding onto those big files. Or maybe I am now living in a Police state, and my head is so deep in that sand that I do not see it? Is that a Chinese flag I see in Perth City centre these days, I must have missed it :-). Or, maybe I am just naive. If I thought this were true, then I think we have all lost our liberty (If we ever really had it)

    Very useful, and very unlawful except in limited circumstances.

    My advice: delete them properly on a regular basis.
    This is the kind of thing that will get the user in lots of trouble - and that's when they lose their phone and aren't quite sure what they have said.

    • samfisher5986 on 09/06/2017 - 14:32

      100% legal in QLD, you don't even have to tell them you are recording.

  • hawktalk on 09/06/2017 - 14:03

    My sister used to threaten my mum that she was recording their conversations so her son can know what an evil grandmother my mum is…… :-/, I wonder if this is what she used to do it! I myself have a pretty good memory and can recall most conversations I have with people (not always word for word but the topics discussed and a general view). I can retain information like that but also forget little things (eg: can remember 12 digit codes easily……… but try to remember a 4 digit pin number I am screwed as I can forget short numbers lol).
