To capture a screen recording on your iPhone, you first need to turn on a special “Screen Recording” button in Control Center. (Control Center is the set of quick shortcuts you can access by swiping downward from the upper-right corner of your screen).

• To do so, first open Settings by tapping the gear icon.

• In Settings, tap “Control Center.”

• In Control Center settings, scroll down to the “More Controls” list and tap “Screen Recording” (with the plus symbol beside it).

The “Screen Recording” option will move to the “Included Controls” list. You can tap and drag the items in this list to change their arrangement on the Control Center screen. Once you have the order arranged how you like, exit Settings. Now you’re ready for the next step: recording.

In Control Center, locate the Screen Recording button, which looks like a circle within another circle. To record quickly without audio, tap it once. To record with audio, press and hold it.
