Moving from Talker ACR to CallVault
A call recorder from Joicoo Limited that also covers internet calls, with Free and Premium levels. Facts about it come from its own page, last checked 7 November 2026. Prices and the wider comparison are on the CallVault site.
Should you move?
Stay on Talker ACR if one of these is you:
- You need WhatsApp, Viber, Skype, Slack or WeChat calls recorded: its listing names them, with the note that not all devices support it.
Move if these matter more:
- Backup on the free plan: Talker lists cloud backup under Premium, and CallVault’s Free plan includes 2 GB.
- A web library for your backed-up recordings.
- No ads, on any plan.
How do you move?
- Install CallVault and record one real call. Play it back before you change anything else. What CallVault hears depends on your phone.
- Keep Talker ACR's recordings where they are until that test call sounds right.
- To bring old recordings across, point CallVault at the folder they're in. CallVault reads those files and never changes them. It's built around phone makers' recorders and BCR-compatible ones, and we haven't tested Talker ACR's files, so try one first.
