To screen record on an iPhone, you can use the built-in screen recording feature. Here’s how to do it:
For iPhone with iOS 14 and later:
- Open Control Center: Swipe down from the top-right corner (or swipe up from the bottom if you have an iPhone with a Home button) to access the Control Center.
- Find the Screen Recording Button: In the Control Center, you’ll see a “Screen Recording” button. It looks like a circle with a dot inside it.
- Start Recording: Tap the “Screen Recording” button. A countdown of 3 seconds will appear.
- Record Your Screen: Your iPhone will start recording everything on the screen. You’ll see a red status bar at the top of your screen to indicate that the recording is in progress.
- Stop Recording: To stop the recording, tap the red status bar at the top of the screen (or go back to the Control Center and tap the “Screen Recording” button again).
- Save and Access Recordings: After you stop the recording, you’ll be prompted to save the video to your Photos app. You can find the recorded video in your Photos under the “Screenshots” album.
For older iOS versions (iOS 13 and earlier):
- Open Settings: Go to the “Settings” app on your iPhone.
- Control Center: Scroll down and tap on “Control Center.”
- Customize Controls: Tap “Customize Controls.”
- Add Screen Recording: Under “More Controls,” find “Screen Recording” and tap the green plus (+) button next to it to add it to your Control Center.
- Open Control Center: Swipe down from the top-right corner (or swipe up from the bottom for iPhones with a Home button) to access the Control Center.
- Start Recording: Tap the “Screen Recording” button (it looks like a circle with a dot inside it). A countdown will appear.
- Stop Recording: To stop the recording, tap the red status bar at the top of your screen or go back to the Control Center and tap the “Screen Recording” button again.
- Save and Access Recordings: The recorded video will be saved in your Photos app, typically under the “Camera Roll” or “Videos” album, depending on your iOS version.
That’s it! You’ve successfully recorded your iPhone’s screen. You can use this feature to capture app demos, tutorials, or anything else you’d like to share or keep for reference.
