How to build an Android app that start recording the input (microphone) and output (speaker/headset) audio during each phone call?
The system once programmed should work in background without any need for user intervention
And store the audio file in preferred directory where the user can retrieve the recording when necessary and move to the pc or listen them directly on the phone

I see that there are several Android apps that allow you to record phone calls, i also have a Record My Call installed on my phone and it works properly
Why do you write that recording phone calls audio is not possible?

Apps are not longer permitted to use Accessibility API for call recording on Google Play Store

Take a look at the phrase above, if you want to create a call recording app you can do it, but you can't use Accessibility API

I think (not sure), most of this apps, record your voice, but not the incoming audio, or at least it records the incoming audio from the external speaker or you can hear it very very low.

From the user reviews that you read, it doesn't seem so
Both incoming audio (speakers/headphones) and outgoing audio (microphone) are recorded

Why do you "need" those reviews, when you have a working one?!
Because I would like to create functions that are not always provided in the currently available apps
Such as transferring a recording directly to my fixed systems that will attempt voice recognition and archive it in case of future needs.

If you've found such an app, please share (PM if necesary). I tested a few ones not long ago, and all of them where trash...

(Italian, sorry)
Intendevo dire che, dato che hai un'app funzionante, non ti servono i commenti alle altre app per sapere che la cosa si possa fare, hai già la dimostrazione pratica.

I meant that since you have a working app, you don't need comments on other apps to know that it can be done, you already have the practical demonstration.
