Steps

  1. Open Settings, tap Control Center, then tap the green plus button beside Screen Recording. Skip this if the round record icon is already in Control Center.

  2. Swipe down from the top right corner of the screen to open Control Center.

  3. Tap the round Screen Recording button and hold or wait for the small menu to appear.

  4. Tap the microphone icon to switch it on if you want your voice recorded. Leave it off to capture app sound only.

  5. Tap Start Recording and wait for the three second countdown to finish.

  6. Open the game or app and do whatever you want to capture. App sound is recorded automatically.

  7. Stop by opening Control Center and tapping the red record button, or tap the red status bar at the top and choose Stop.

  8. Open Photos, go to Media Types, then Videos to find and share your recording.

Tips and common mistakes

Turn on Do Not Disturb before you record so calls and notification sounds stay out of the video.

Apps that stream protected films or music block audio capture, so their recordings come out silent.

With the microphone on, room noise is recorded too, so use a quiet room or wired earphones with a mic.

The recording saves at the same resolution as your screen, so there is no extra quality setting to change.

Questions

Why is my screen recording silent?

The microphone was probably off and the app blocks audio capture. Apps with protected video or music, such as streaming services, mute the sound on purpose.

Can I record my own voice at the same time as app sound?

Yes. Turn the microphone icon on before you start. The recording then holds both the app audio and your commentary.

Where do screen recordings go on the iPhone?

They save to the Photos app in the Videos album. From there you can trim, share or move them to Files.
