We’ll break down how to record your smartphone screen whether you are on iOS or Android. For those moments when you wanna share your Fallout Shelter or show mom or dad how to delete their cookies, this videos got you covered. Why screen record You might want to screen record your phone so you can offer tech support for friends and family since showing people what to do can be much more effective than trying to explain it over the phone. Or maybe you are the one looking for some troubleshooting assistance with an app. Maybe you figured out something really cool in your favorite app or game and want to share it for internet points. Or if you are a gaming content creator and you want to show off a mobile game. Maybe you want to record a Skype call or a friend’s Instagram story. These are all great reasons you may want to record from your phone. iPhone Screen Recording Let’s start with the iPhone since Apple has built screen recording right into iOS. If you are running iOS 11 or newer, you can simply go to your Settings, Control Center, Customize Controls, then tap the + sign next to Screen Recording. On an iPhone X or later, swipe down from the upper-right corner of the screen and long press the record button icon. You can then choose if you’d also like to record from the microphone for commentary. Tap Start Recording and you’ll see a 3 second countdown after which you are recording. To stop recording simply open your control center and tap the recording button icon again or tap the red recording status bar at the top of the screen and hit stop. iPhone Recording with a Mac If you don’t want the tiny red timer bubble or full red bar at the top of your recordings you may want to record from a connected Mac. You need macOS 10.10 or higher with a lightning cable and QuickTime. Simply connect the device, launch QuickTime, start a New Movie recording and choose your iPhone as the camera in the recording settings. You can find this by clicking the small downward arrow to the right of the record button. This method allows you to capture audio using either your iPhone or Mac’s microphone for commentary. Android Screen Recording On Android, while there’s no native screen recording built into the OS, there are a plethora of both free and paid apps out there that will get the job done. Google apps like YouTube Gaming and Google Play Games have screen recording built-in but other apps are simpler and more versatile in case you want to record something other than a game. One of the most popular is DU Recorder. It’s a high-quality recorder that has editing software built in with no recording time limit and it records up to 1080p, 12MBps and 60fps. It also allows you to record using a facecam at the same time and stream your content out live, perfect for content creators. Another feature for our reluctant tech support friends is that you can choose to have your click operations recorded if you’d like, which is super useful.
