This is in the native phone app. I'm in the US. Definitely didn't have this feature before. It announces when you start recording.

I know it's been a thing with some other phones and in other countries, but hey it's cool to have it on my Pixel 8.

Another reason to hate google. This feature got taken away for legal reasons in many regions. The Google dialer app is absolute trash now after the last big update.

    It wasn't "taken away", it was removed. But it's an extremely useful feature.

    No it doesn't. "Taken away" means it was taken by a third party. That's not what happened. Google removed it themselves.
