Screen recording on iPhone is a built-in feature that allows you to capture video of your screen, including audio. This can be useful for creating tutorials, demos, or simply sharing what you’re seeing on your screen with others.
To screen record on iPhone, you’ll need to add the Screen Recording control to your Control Center. To do this, go to Settings > Control Center. Then, tap the + button next to Screen Recording.
Once you’ve added Screen Recording to your Control Center, you can start recording your screen by following these steps:
- Open Control Center by swiping down from the top-right corner of your screen.
- Tap and hold the Screen Recording button (it looks like a circle with a dot in the middle).
- Tap Start Recording to begin recording your screen.
- To stop recording, open Control Center again and tap the Screen Recording button.
Your screen recording will be saved to your Photos app. You can then trim, edit, and share your recording as you would any other video.
Here are some additional tips for screen recording on iPhone:

- Some apps may not allow you to screen record. If you see a red bar at the top of your screen when you try to record, that means the app doesn’t allow screen recording.
