iphone - iOS: Create an MP3 on device

Question

I am trying to create an MP3 audio file on the device (iPhone).

I have found that there is no possibility to record directly in MP3 format.
Only .caf file that may contain AIFF, Linear PCM etc.

I have also found here that there is an AudioConverterFillComplexBuffer function that might, theoretically, convert CAF file to MP3, but I can't find any sample code or explanation on how to use this function.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Try using LAME - open source MP3 encoder library (liblame)
