Record Cell Phone Calls?

There are many reasons to record cell phone calls, from the cloak-and-dagger to the very prosaic. Therefore, there are programs and applications available which can be used to record cell phone calls. While some of these programs are installed by an employer, parent or spouse who wishes to record calls without the phone user knowing the calls are being recorded, others can be installed easily by a phone user who wants to record cell phone calls for future reference, or to deal with callers who are harassing her or otherwise conducting illegal activity with their calls. To save time and money on software to record cell phone calls, especially when this is being done without the phone user's knowledge, it is possible to buy a phone with the software already installed. However, most such phones offer features such as GPS tracking and SMS recording that you may or may not need if you just want to record simple phone calls. As with any other purchase, deal with a reliable supplier and do not buy more features than you need. Also, make sure you follow all pertinent laws when you record cell phone calls.

Can employers record employees phone calls in Iowa?

I believe that this question applies to the same as when people ask if they can record a phone conversation. The answer is no, not if they are not part of the call themselves. Even if the person owns the phone or pays the phone bill, they still cannot record a conversation they are not a part of. However, there are some States that allow phone recordings if they believe something illegal is being perpetrated especially if that illegal action being perpetrated is against your employer such as selling company secrets to a competitor. Also note that a company that has a suspicion that you are doing something illegal or are just using their phones for personal calls when you should be on the phone with a client can obtain a warrant from the Courts if they have sufficient evidence of this such as a call list (a list of phone numbers incoming and outgoing) which is indeed legal to do. If a warrant is issued, then they can legally record all incoming and outgoing phone calls from your extension or another you might be using.
