Screen Recording on iOS 11

Post by mockingbird288z »

On iOS 11 we can now record our screens.

First you need to add screen recording to the control center:
Tap on Customize Controls
Tap on Customize Controls

Tap on the green plus sign to add screen recording to your control center
Tap on the green plus sign to add screen recording to your control center

Screen recording added to the control center
Screen recording added to the control center


Then to start recording you pull up on your screen to access the control center and tap on the screen recording button:

Tap the screen recording button
Tap the screen recording button


To stop the recording you can either pull up the control center again and tap on the screen recording button:

Or tap on the red bar across the top of your screen when you aren’t in any apps:

The video is saved to the Photos app. It records the sound of the game whether you have the sound on or off and it doesn’t record ambient sounds like some other screen recording apps.

Unfortunately we can’t post videos straight to the forum.

Love this new development—I’m always wanting to describe my gameplay to others but now I can show them step by step!

Can we(you guys :D ) start a forum section to link to private videos for people from just this forum to see? I'd love to do quick tours of my houses (I've been on sick leave for months so I've built so many new ones).

You can post links in the Showcases section (registered users only). There is a topic where you can post videolinks.
Unfortunately we can't add a streaming from the forum option, due to the size of videos in general.
There are ways to upload your videos on youtube (and others) and make them available only to those with the link.

Yep, I updated my iPhone 6S and used the new iOS 11 screen recorder to record my gameplay. I don't need to use other third-party programs to record my iPhone.
