The article is not that clear, is this just a policy for apps on the Google Play store, meaning apps from F-Droid and whatnot have no issue recording calls?
Pretty sure they pushed something system-level on Android too
I currently use this on my FP3 to record calls (Installed via a Magisk module)
It works pretty well, however OP do test with both bluetooth and wired headphones as those can be hit or miss. Also, sometimes Duo video calls are recorded and sometimes they're completely silent.
Looks like that particular app was last updated before Google Play had updated their policy to prohibit using the accessibility API to record calls. Meaning that app description was probably referring to how Google had removed the API that this developer was using for call recording, when developers had not yet moved onto using the accessibility API workaround.
Oh ok, so there are apps to record calls?
