Simple Device
Works as a simple audio splitter.
The call is captured, and its signal is converted to look like an ‘external mic’ for recording devices. All this is done in hardware, so no special apps are required!
Private Recordings
Recordings are stored locally. No cloud risks.
Keep recordings local for your ultimate privacy. A few days pass without news of a data breach in cloud servers. Think twice before trusting your data to third-party servers.
Universal
Works on iPhone, Android, Mac, PC, and many other devices.
No apps are required, and it never gets outdated. It will work on any future device with a compatible audio port.

How do you use RECAP, the phone call recording adapter?
As shown below, RECAP goes between your phone and headset, providing an output to a recording device.
Compatibility: The “CALL” device must have a 3.5mm combo port and a compatible headset, and the “REC” device must have a 3.5mm stereo microphone input port.
Note: Additional adapters are required if your device does not have the correct port. See FAQ below.
RECAP S2 has a stereo output. You get one channel on each side of the call, making the ideal technical solution for recording phone calls.
As shown in the sound amplitude diagram above, what you say in the microphone is delivered to the right channel, and what you hear on the call goes to the left channel.
Separate channels are ideal for audio processing. If you have an unbalanced call volume (one side much louder than the other), you can use an audio software tool, such as Audacity, to amplify the audio of one channel and balance it out.
