Could you build this?
No The product depends on low-level iOS audio and USB behavior, which requires specialized reverse-engineering expertise that vibe coding cannot supply. It is also built to defeat a call-recording consent disclosure, which raises serious legal and ethical concerns, so I would not help design it.
What it would actually take: Building this would require deep, device-specific reverse engineering of iOS audio routing and firmware-level USB behavior, tied to a specific OS build. It would also need hardware test rigs and the ability to keep up with OS updates. The consent-disclosure circumvention makes it legally risky in many jurisdictions regardless of technical difficulty.
