If there’s a feature that iOS was always missing, it is being able to record your own phone calls. AudioRecorder XS is a jailbreak tweak that allows you to record your calls, and create voice memos easily, and with support for CallKit this tweak can record even calls made through apps like WhatsApp, Viber, FaceTime, Skype, Messenger, Line, Tango, X, or Instagram.
Yes, in some countries that may not be legal, however, many countries across the globe allow you to record your calls as long as at least one party consents to the recording.
Still, AudioRecorder XS has you covered as there’s an option to automatically send a warning message to the other party that the call is being recorded. AudioRecorder XS is the very first iOS call recorder tweak.
This way you can comply with the law while also having a record of your important conversations.
This tweak has a wide range of compatibility working from iOS 12 all the way up to iOS 17 and it’s essentially all you need to record high-definition audio of your conversations.
Installing AudioRecorder XS is pretty simple, it installs like any other jailbreak tweak and once installed, it creates a new Preference Panel in Settings so you can customize all its settings in one place.
With AudioRecorderXS you can also record the audio from Video Calls, as well as any sound coming from the device (Websites playing music, audio, etc.).

Since this is a jailbreak tweak, you can install it like any other tweak. The tweak was developed by Limneos and it’s available on their official repo.

AudioRecorder XS supports the latest jailbreak tools
With the release of AudioRecorder XS 5.0, support for the latest jailbreaks for iOS 15 and iOS 16 has been added.
This means that you can now install AudioRecorder XS on Palera1n Jailbreak, XinaA15 Jailbreak as well as Dopamine Jailbreak on iOS 15.0 – 17 thanks to the rootless version which works on these jailbreaks.
Since PaleRa1n officially supports iOS 17 too, the tweak was updated and works on iOS 17.0 – 17.3.1 without any difficulty.
AudioRecorder XS redefines the audio recording experience on iOS devices by offering a comprehensive set of features not found in the stock Voice Memos app.
With this tweak installed, users gain access to advanced recording options, including high-quality audio formats such as WAV and FLAC, adjustable bitrates, and customizable sampling rates.
Whether capturing lectures, interviews, or musical performances, AudioRecorder XS ensures pristine audio quality, catering to the needs of professional users and casual enthusiasts alike.
The best part of AudioRecorder XS is that you can edit the recordings after you make them. You can cut, insert silence, add audio effects, play with the equalizer, add reverb, fade in, fade out, and much more.
Another great feature is that you can set any recording as a ringtone natively on iOS. You can also assign contacts to automatically record the calls with them.
Moving the recordings is also easy. You can zip and share multiple recordings at a time through various means, including moving them to the PC.
You can send them as email, AirDrop, Messages attachment, Dropbox, Google Drive, etc.
