Feature request: record calls and messages on iPhone
I'm trying to generate interest for some features I think should be introduced. What do you think of this one...
The iPhone should be able to record calls and messages to save as an audio file on your computer. Aside from providing the ability to keep a personal archive of important or meaningful calls and messages, this introduces another revolutionary new feature:
Imagine if every call you made on your phone was recorded automatically, so you could review what someone said even after hanging up the phone. Each call could be saved in a temporary location, and recordings could be saved permanently by clicking "Save" on the corresponding entry in the call log. This way, you wouldn't ever have to worry about forgetting what someone said, and you can forever save the memorable phone calls that impact your life. This feature would also be extremely useful for recording phone interviews for later review and transcription.
This feature would likely be relatively easy to adopt, and would certainly be a revolutionary addition to a revolutionary device.
Thanks, I already did give Apple feedback though. I was just posting it here to try to generate some more support for the idea. I'm new to the forum, so I'm not sure if this is an appropriate type of thing to post, so please let me know if it's generally not appreciated to put feature suggestions up for discussion.

Block calls and messages on iphone
How do I block calls and some messages--am a verizon user of iphone 4s
You need to log onto your Verizon account (www.verizonwireless.com). One of the options on the main screen is blocking numbers. You can block up to, I believe, five for free. There are additional options that cost a monthly fee.

Why can't I block a number through the call and message blocking request?
Every time I try to insert a number, it keeps saying that they are unable to complete my requested change at this time.
Jezallygrace, I want to make sure you're able to block those unwanted calls and messages. If you're still having problems with the site, we'll need to verify the feature is on your account and possibly add the block for your. If you still need assistance, please send me a private message with your mobile number.

How do I stop my 2 iPhone 5s from sharing calls and messages
MMyself and my husband each have iPhone 5 with newly down loaded iOS 8.1.2. Now they are sharing incoming calls and messages . How do I stop this. We only have 1itunes acct.
Easiest solution is to use different Apple IDs for iCloud. You can still use the same one in iTunes/App Store, but for iCloud, one of you make a new Apple ID, sign out of the shared Apple ID under iCloud, and then sign in with the new Apple ID there. The Continuity feature's basic requirement (the master switch if you will) is that the devices be using the same iCloud account. This will also prevent problems such as accidentally deleting or modifying each other Contacts/Calendars, running out of the free 5GB of iCloud storage, etcetera.
Only use a shared Apple ID for iTunes/App Store.
For iCloud/Messages/FaceTime/GameCenter, use a unique personal Apple ID, unless you want to get each others iMessages, FaceTime calls, contacts and calendars and game progress.

My texts have stoipped getting through to one of my contacts. I can phone him and I can receive his calls and messages. I am the only one of his contacts whose texts are not getting through. We have both restarted our iphones but the problem continues.
Have you talked to your carrier (or your friend to his)? Could be an issue at their end.

my iphone 4 fell down from 3 feet height and display is not working now, phone is functioning with calls and messages etc.. except no display please advise me a corrective action...
Take it to an Apple Store and see about getting an out of warranty replacement. I believe it will run you about $150.

Is there a way for this community, to make a suggestion to Apple to include blocking a specific contact number calls and messages just as other phones provide that feature for their users.
No phone provides true call blocking. At best, they provide call diversion. Essentially, the call is answered and disconnected automatically. If I recall, Apple is adding call diversion features in iOS 7.
Best of luck. -
Please help me as I am not able to connect to the net. My I phone shows carrier as EE 15.8 but is working on calls and messages. Do I need to remove the turbo sim while restoring. as I am not getting the option for carries as I use to get it before...
You have hacked your phone with Turbo SIM. You cannot get any help here for hacked phones. Contact the place/person who sold you the SIM. Surely, they have support services, don't they?

my family and I share the same account of apple. I'm getting phone calls and messages from my mothers and my number and vice versa. is there anything we can do
The short solution is to go to Settings > FaceTime > iPhone Cellular Calls OFF.
However, as Csound points out, you should not really be sharing an Apple ID with anyone. See: How to Stop Sharing an Apple ID.

I upgraded to a 4g and the most recent backup (today) is not showing up. The most recent backup that showed was 3/3/12. I went ahead and backed up to that date and found that my texts, phone calls and messages are the part that did not backup.
Can anyone tell me 1) why my most recent backup did not show in ITunes, 2) why I could not backup using the Cloud (I tried this way first), 3) how I can get all the phone calls, messages and texts from 3/3/12 until today? Please help if you can...thanks!I found the answer on:

I want to block a number from calling and message me but how do i do this is there any app avalible for this
Sadly, as Call Bliss uses the built in Do Not Disturb feature, it requires that your screen be locked in order to function.
I'm hoping (and have submitted feedback) that Apple will beef up DND to work even when the screen isn't locked. -
iPhone 4s: Slide to unlock doea not work. Phone receives calls and messages but we cannot answer. We have tried numberous times to turn on/off to no avail.
It sounds like your phone is broken.

If I get a Skype phone number will I get calls and messages on my computer?
If I get a Skype number will I be able to recieive calls and messages on my computer instead of on a phone?
Hi, Cry1,CRY1 wrote:
Yes was the answer which is helpful. If my computer is on but not on Skype how will I know that a call is coming in ...You would not be able to tell if an incoming call is ringing if you are not logged in on Skype. If you are not signed on to Skype, there are two options:- The call is routed to voice mail- You set up call forwarding to a mobile or fixed line number, either of which requires a Skype Subscription or that you purchase Skype Credit to pay for call fees.- Look to set up SpinVox, which will send you a fairly good translation of a voice mail message to a text message. The SMS messages usually arrive within five to 15 minutes of a voice mail being recorded. CRY1 wrote:

In "do not disturb" mode, I need it to never silent calls and messages
Hello,
I'm trying to figure this out, not that I'm on call again. Since "Do Not Disturb" has been out I have had my phone set to auto turn on nightly. Allowing Call and messages to come though. Thinking that was the case I never thought anymore of it. Last night I got a high ticket and miss it because it was in "Do Not Disturb".
So even thought it's set to allow all calls they still get blocked? Is there was to have the IOS7 Silent feature turned off. I have e-mails and other crap getting push to my phone for my pebble so I don't want to turn that off, just make the quite at night.
Am I SOL?
Any info on this would be great.Hi,
You can turn the email arrival sound off in the settings. Thus you can still get phone calls but no email arrival sounds. more over, you can turn the notification for the emails off (at least make it no sound).
And I think do not disturb just mutes the rings for text or calls. it doesn't actually blocking them.
Hope this helps.
