Smartphones nowadays almost always support recording audio. But what if you had to record audio through a landline or a regular cellphone? The answer is a service called Call2Record.

Call2Record provides you with a phone number that you can call and press # to pause and resume your recording. When you hang up you are sent the URL of your recording as an SMS message. If you use the service without registering for an account your recordings can be only 20 seconds long and you can use only your cellphone. But after registering for an account you can purchase more recording minutes and add a landline. You will then be able to record through your landline and receive the URL containing the text message on your cellphone.
