What's new in v1.0.11-apt
Upon the latest updates in Google’s Developer Policy, call recording apps can no longer use accessibility services for call recording purposes. In view of this, we’ve developed a supplementary utility app, - Cube ACR Helper, to enable our users to continue recording calls on Android 9 devices and higher.
So, to review the functionality of this tool, you need to take the following steps:
1. Install Cube ACR (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.catalinagroup.callrecorder) from Google Play.
2. Install Cube ACR Helper and enable all requested permissions for this app.
3. Try call recording with Cube ACR app.

How to install Cube ACR Helper on Android 4.4+
You'll need about 11.8 MB of free space.
- Download the APK — tap Download APK above (5.9 MB). Chrome shows “File might be harmful” for every APK file; choose Download anyway only if you trust this file.
- Open the file — tap the download notification, or open Files › Downloads and tap com-catalinagroup-callrecorder-helper-11-65494371-5e54fa220361fe49d61cc3374367b8af.apk.
- Allow the install (first time only) — Android 8 and later asks for permission the first time an app opens an APK: tap Settings in the prompt, turn on Allow from this source, then go back. Manual path: Settings › Apps › Special app access › Install unknown apps (on Samsung: Settings › Apps › ⋮ › Special access). On Android 7 and older: Settings › Security › Unknown sources.
- Check the file (optional) — the MD5 of the downloaded file should be 5e54fa220361fe49d61cc3374367b8af. If it differs, the file is damaged or was changed: delete it and download again.
- Tap Install — Android asks “Do you want to install this app?”. If Google Play Protect shows a warning, read it before you continue: the source store rated this file Trusted, but only install apps from sources you trust. If an earlier version is installed, this one only installs as an update when it is signed with the same certificate (SHA-1 shown above).
- Open Cube ACR Helper — tap Open on the install screen, or find it in your app drawer.
Common install problems
- “App not installed” — a version signed with a different certificate, or a newer version, is already installed (Android doesn't allow downgrades). Uninstall it first; back up your data, because uninstalling deletes it.
- “There was a problem parsing the package” — the file is incomplete, or your Android is too old (this version needs Android 4.4+). Download it again, or pick an older version.
- “App not compatible with your device” — this build contains native code for x86 32-bit, x86 64-bit, ARM (legacy), ARM 32-bit, ARM 64-bit, MIPS, MIPS 64-bit only. Devices with other processors can't install it.
- Blocked by Play Protect — Play Protect checks apps from outside the Play Store. Only continue if you trust the source.
