How to Discreetly Stop Screen Recording on an iPhone

One of the best ways to explain someone anything on a smartphone or a desktop/laptop is by sharing a screen recording of it. Because it ultimately becomes a guide which the other person can follow in order to overcome the issue. Moreover, if you are an iPhone user then, you might be very familiar with how to start and stop the screen recording via the control center. But, what if you want the screen recorded video to not like one and give it a more professional touch. Normally, the video recorded by the screen recording feature also captures the moment where we pull down the control center to tap the start/stop recording button.

This right away gives the other user an idea that the video shared, is a screen recorded video. Fortunately, if you are looking for ways to discreetly record the screen of your iPhone without anyone knowing then this guide is for you. Because in this post, we will be sharing with you how to discreetly stop screen recording on the iPhone. Basically, there are two methods in-built to stop the video recording without the need to access the Control Center. For more iPhone related posts, you can check out our dedicated iPhone section.

How to Discreetly Stop Screen Recording on an iPhone

So, below are the two methods or ways by which you can give a slight professional touch to the screen recorded video:

Method 1

Whenever you record the screen of your iPhone, you must have noticed a red bar or button on the top. Here lies the trick! Click on this red bar or button at the top and hit the Stop promptly to end the screen recording. What’s more interesting is that Apple automatically cuts off the prompt, saving a clean screen recorded video.

Method 2

There is another way to stop the screen recording and get rid of the extra footage that captures your movement on the screen for stopping the video. It’s fairly simple indeed! You just need to start the video recording normally and once you are done, you need to press the Sleep/Wake button. When you unlock your device, you will see that your video is directly saved in the gallery without any unnecessary footage of stopping the recoding via the Control Center.

That’s not it! If you want to capture more clean screen recording then, once you hit the Start screen recording button, make sure to quickly come out of the Control Center while the toggle is counting down. This will start the recording from exactly where you want and not right from the Control Center.

So, there you have it from my side in this post. I hope you guys liked this post and were able to record your videos on your iPhone more cleanly.
