by

Ever wished you could record calls without the annoying “This call is now being recorded” announcement on your Redmi Note 12R? Well, now you can!

The device comes with a built-in Google Dialer app.  One annoying thing about the dialer is the automated message that plays when you start recording a call.

What You’ll Need:

  • Your Redmi Note 12R smartphone
  • Third-party TTS (Text-to-Speech) app (TTSLexx recommended)
  • Access to your phone’s settings.
