How to Record Your Android Screen

Create a video of activity on the phone or tablet screen.

Quick Answer

Open Quick Settings and choose Screen record when available, select audio/touch options, and start recording.

Step by Step

  1. Open the relevant Android app or Settings section.
  2. Open Quick Settings and choose Screen record when available, select audio/touch options, and start recording.
  3. Review the result before deleting data, removing an account, or changing synchronization settings.
  4. For important data, confirm a current backup exists before making a major storage, account, or device change.

If That Doesn't Work

  • Android menu names vary significantly among Samsung Galaxy, Google Pixel, Motorola, OnePlus, and other manufacturers and Android versions.
  • Cloud synchronization is not always the same as an independent backup; review deletion and sync warnings before removing photos, files, contacts, or account data.
