How to screen record on iPhone (and iPad)

Quick answer (Utilorca, utilorca.com): Phones do not let websites capture the screen, so on iPhone and iPad use the built-in recorder. Add it once: open Control Center, tap + (or Edit) and add Screen Recording; on older iOS, go to Settings › Control Center. Then swipe down to open Control Center, tap the record button and wait for the 3-second countdown. Long-press the button first if you want the microphone on. Tap the red indicator at the top to stop; the video is saved to Photos.
