Is There No Way to Automatically Record Phone Calls Anymore?

I'm still using an old phone (LG G7 ThinQ), and their Phone app has a built-in recording.

If I wanted to use another phone app (or when I upgrade phones), I would lose this feature. And I have looked (albeit not too much) and found that there's no way to record phone calls unless you root or it has to be built-in on the phone like some Samsung or Xiaomi phones.

Isn't it illegal?

Only in certain places.

In the US, for example, there are some states that only require consent from one party involved in the conversation to make recording it legal.

Other states require consent from both (or all) parties involved otherwise it would be illegal.

Pretty sure it is. Only third party software and custom ROMs allow it
