    No way, I thought the thrill of browsing sketchy appstores to find the other half of the ACR phone was part of the fun.

    For those out of the loop - ACR phone is a dialer app that does call recording. It’s distributed through the play store, but without the call recording part, because that would be against the ToS. Once installed, it instructs you to go find the other app that serves as an accessibility module with access to the microphone. And by that I mean ONLY your microphone. The other side of the call is recorded only as an echo of the speaker caught by your own mic.
