Although the screen recording of our iPhone phones It is not something we use daily, I am sure that we have all needed it, either to teach a friend how to configure something, or save a video of a platform that cannot be downloaded.
Well, it seems that Apple is working to improve this internal iOS tool, so, in an upcoming update, for all those who have iOS 18, we will see new functions and characteristics In it. We will discover them.
New screen recording functions
And, although it seems difficult to improve this tool, because it is very simple, and first, no one would think of many news for her, Apple wanted to introduce 3 quite important changes, at least in relation to what we can expect of it. Would be the following:
- Stereo audio recording: Currently, the audio captured during a screen recording is recorded in Mono. In a future update, users will be able to use multiple integrated microphones to create a stereo recording. (Even through AirPods or coupled microphones we could improve this sound).
- HDR support for screen recordings: Until now, screen recordings only support SDR. In an upcoming update, users can capture and save HDR content using the screen recording tool, which will allow it to look much better.
- Live camera overlap through the picture-in-pepper interface: The most outstanding update will allow to capture simultaneously a live camera overlap while the iPhone screen is recorded, using the picture-in-pepper interface similar to the one in the Shareplay sessions.
If I have to stay with any of the functions, the last one seems very interesting, it is something that other systems and apps already do and can be useful when we teach someone how to make some adjustment, or simply if we want to record our reaction while we see for the first time a video, which could be played in the background at the same time.
It is likely that, if there is no problem with them, let’s see them in the Final version of iOS 18.3because these have already been tested in their last beta, which usually leaves a week before the rest of the users, so when you read this, you may already have the update available, and you can try them.
IOS 18.3 Bring many news, not only in this app, so we recommend that you update your iPhone once you have it available, since you will not only have internal improvements, but also at the security level, because it is important to always use the latest version , at least if we want to avoid gaps or possible intruders in our phones.
And you, are you using the screen recording, or is it the typical tool that you have not tried since you have your phone, and do you only dedicate yourself to making simple captures? Leave us a comment with your opinion, and if you think these 3 improvements are something good, or one more update.
