Do your parents or friends constantly call you, asking how to do something on their iPhone? Or maybe you want to record a sweet Fortnite win that people just have to see? Since iOS 11, Apple introduced a native option to record the screen on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod.
What once required a third-party app is now a stunningly simple process. For anyone who just needs basic functionality to record their screen, Apple’s built-in feature should suffice. Just a few taps, and you can share any video through any of your channels.
Here’s everything you need to know in order to create a screen recording in iOS 15.5.
Setting up screen recording
Although screen recording is easy, you do need to make the setting available in the Control Center.
Step 1: To enable screen recording, go to Settings > Control Center.
Step 2: Scroll down to the More controls section to find Screen recording and tap the green Plus icon (+) next to it.
Step 3: A Screen record icon should now appear in the Control center, which you can access by swiping up from the bottom of the screen, or swiping down from the top right edge if you’re on an iPhone X series, or later series that do not have a Home button, such as iPhone 11, iPhone 12, and iPhone 13.
