Auto Call Recorder (ACR for short) is a freeware application for Windows Mobile 6 Pocket PC devices that can record phone calls automatically. It automatically detects when you are on an incoming or outgoing call and then records the conversation to the folder you specify. It saves the call as a WAV file in the format of [Direction] [FileAs] [Phone Number] [Call Length].

The author also provides an addon called Outlook Import 2007 for Windows PC. This software is an add-in for Outlook 2007 that lets you import all phone calls from the Windows mobile device into Outlook under the contact used on the device. If it cannot find a contact, it will store the call under ‘Unknown’. You can then use either the journal to look at the calls or open the contact and look at the ‘activities’ for the contact. To play the call just open the item and click on the link in the item.

Some of the configurable options in Auto Call Recorder include:

Auto Call Recorder: Automatically Record Incoming & Outgoing Phone Calls on Windows Mobile & Import into Outlook Contacts

+ Enable or disable the call recorder
+ Path to save recorded conversations
+ Codec in which the file will be saved
+ Bit rate settings

Note that the use of this application may be illegal in some countries. Please

Both programs require .NET Compact Framework 3.5 Redistributable to be installed on the mobile device. Visit this XDA-Developer thread to download Auto Call Recorder for Windows Mobile 6 and Outlook Import 2007.
