To screen record on an iPhone, you can use the built-in screen recording feature. Here’s how you can do it:

Step 1: Enable Screen Recording in Control Center

1. Open the Settings app on your iPhone.
2. Tap on “Control Center”
3. Scroll down and find “Screen Recording”
4. Tap the green plus button (+) next to “Screen Recording” to add it to your Control Center.

Step 2: Access Control Center

Swipe down from the upper-right corner of the screen (or swipe up from the bottom on older iPhone models) to open the Control Center.

Start Screen Recording:

1. In the Control Center, look for the Screen Recording icon, which looks like a solid circle within a circle.
2. Tap the Screen Recording icon.

Adjust Settings (Optional):

You can tap and hold the Screen Recording icon to reveal additional options, such as turning the microphone on or off.

Start Recording:

After configuring your settings, tap the red “Start Recording” button. A countdown will appear, and then the recording will begin.

Stop Recording:

To stop the recording, either tap the red recording indicator in the status bar and choose “Stop,” or return to the Control Center and tap the blinking red recording icon.

Step 3: Access Recorded Video

The recorded video is automatically saved to your Photos app.

Remember that the Screen Recording feature captures everything on your screen, including notifications. If you want to record audio as well, make sure the microphone is enabled when you start the recording.
