How to Screen Record in Samsung S22, A21s & etc (Android 12)

The iPhone famously has a built-in screen recording feature, making it easy to capture all the action happening on your iPhone’s camera. In this feature, I am going to show you how to screen record in Samsung Galaxy S22, S21, A21 and etc on Android 12.

However, Samsung has recently released Android 10 (One UI 2.0) for their higher flagship smartphones such as Samsung Galaxy S10, S10 Plus, S9, S9+, Note 10, Note 10 Plus, and Note 9. In the meantime, if you have recently updated to Android 10 (One UI 2.0) then you will definitely notice that there is a hidden Screen recorder feature that you can easily screen record on Samsung Galaxy.

Furthermore, in the previous version of Android Pie (One UI), there was a feature called “Game Launcher“,  this feature was limited to non-native apps, which meant you couldn’t screen record pre-installed apps like Google Maps, Chrome, and Samsung Messages.
