When you place a FaceTime call, your iPhone allows you to record the call, which it saves as a video file in your camera roll. It saves as an ordinary MP4 video, so you can do anything you want with it, including editing and sharing. There is one caveat, however: Despite what many websites incorrectly assert, you can’t record the audio, so you will only be able to record the video portion of the call.

Of course, you should get the permission of the other party before you record or use video you’ve recorded over FaceTime – iOS does not notify anyone that a recording is taking place.

How to prepare to screen record a FaceTime call

Before the call, you need to add the screen recording tool to the iPhone’s Control Center. You only need to do this once.

1. Start the Settings app and then tap “Control Center.”

2. Tap "Customize Controls."

3. If Screen Recording isn't already at the top of the screen in the "Include" section, find it down below in the "More Controls" section and tap the green plus sign beside "Screen Recording."

4. Verify that it's now in the Control Center - pull the Control Center down from the top right of the iPhone's screen. You should see a round Screen Recording icon.

2. After a 3-second countdown, recording will begin. To indicate you're recording, the recording time will appear in red at the top left corner of the screen.

3. Start your FaceTime call in the usual way.

4. When you're done recording, tap the red recording indicator in the top left of your screen and tap "Stop."

You don't have to start screen recording before beginning your call. You can start the call, and at any time, pull down the Control Center and start recording, then return to the FaceTime call.
