Whether they’re phone call recordings or the recordings that are done using the Recorder app, you can delete the unwanted ones using the following 2 methods:
i. Deleting a recording using the Explorer app
When you do a recording, the file is saved in /MIUI/sound_recorder/. Whether it’s in your phone storage or external SD card depends on the model you’re having.
- On your Xiaomi phone, find and launch the Explorer app.
- Using Explorer, navigate to /MIUI/sound_recorder/ folder. Note: While normal recordings are saved in this folder, the call recordings are saved in the call_rec sub folder.
- Long tap the recording file you want to delete to select it.
