First, you need to add the Screen Recording button to Control Center. Do this by going to Settings > Control Center > tap the + next to Screen Recording.

With that done, you’re ready to start screen recording. Get to the app or action you want to record.

Open Control Center by swiping down from the top right corner of the screen.

• To start the recording right away, tap the screen recording icon (it’s a solid dot with a circle around it). Skip to step 7.
• To enable the microphone, and to choose where to save the recording, tap and hold the screen recording icon.

If you tapped and held the screen recording icon, a new screen appears that lets you control settings for the recording.

First, if more than one app on your iPhone lets you save the screen recording, choose the one you want to get the recording by tapping it. By default, the iPhone’s microphone is off during screen recordings, but you can turn it on so you can speak during the recording. Tap the microphone icon to toggle it to on.

Tap Start Recording.

A timer counts down from 3. When the timer ends, the recording starts.

When you want to stop the screen recording, open Control Center and tap the screen recording icon again. (If you’ve got the Screen Recording controls up like in step 5, tap Stop Recording, as shown here).

By default, screen recording videos are saved in the Videos album in the pre-installed Photos app. If you chose a different app in step 5, look for your screen recording video there.
