WARNING: Some countries and states impose laws and regulations on recording calls.
We recommend requesting consent from call participants before recording any call. It may also be a good idea to have a message set up for your organization that warns callers that their call may be recorded.
Please consult with the regulatory experts in your company before using this feature. To implement any warnings for your callers, contact our technical support team.
To start recording an active call, tap the record button on the call screen. Touch this icon again to stop the recording.

The Recording Warning Beep
The Stratus mobile app has a Warning Beep that can be enabled and disabled as needed in your mobile app's Call Recording settings.
✔ When the Warning Beep is enabled, the person you are speaking with through your mobile app will hear a beep every 15 seconds to remind them that their call is being recorded.
Having this beep enabled can be a great way to stay compliant when recording the calls of your customers. It is still important to ask for consent before recording a portion of a call to ensure callers can withdraw consent if they need to.
To adjust the Warning Beep setting of your app…
- Navigate to the Keypad
tab.
- Tap the Settings
icon.
- Navigate to Preferences → Call Recording.
- Use the Warning Beep toggle to enable or disable this feature.
- Press Done at the top right.
