Are you looking to record a video tutorial, troubleshooting video, or gameplay on your iPhone? Thankfully, iPhones running iOS 11 or later offer native functionality to record the screen. The integrated screen recorder works great and eliminates the need to install a third-party app. It lets you capture both the video and audio on your iPhone. Moreover, you can record internal as well as external sounds from the microphone.
Does iPhone 13 have screen recording?
Yes, there is a hidden screen recording feature on iOS and iPadOS that many users aren’t aware of.

Hence, if you’re new to the iOS ecosystem then you might struggle while trying to screen record on iPhone 13.
Thanks to native screen-recording support, iPhone users can record screen without an app. Let’s find out how.
