As mentioned, the feature requires a Pixel 6 or later model, that the phone has Android 14 or a newer version of Google’s operating system installed, and that you also use the latest version of the Google Phone app.
It might not be exclusive to Pixel phones, though. If you use Google’s Phone app, which is available via the Play Store on all Android phones, you should also be able to access the call recording functionality, so it’s worth checking or considering switching to that as your default.
Can’t see it yet? Android Authority also suggests that you may need to download November’s Pixel Drop update to get the recordings to work.
