iOS 16.1 Screen Recorder Only Records on Control Center Screen

iOS 16.1 Screen Recording bug: It only records when I'm on the control center screen. After that, it stops as soon as I get off from there. If I get off early from the control center, the countdown stops right there.

To solve the iOS 16.1 screen recorder only records when on the control center screen issue, you can try the method below:

1. Turn off the Always-On display option

Since the Always-On display setting is on by default and may affect the screen recording, you need to turn it off. To turn it off, you need to go to "Settings" > "Display & Brightness" > turn off "Always On Display".

2. Restart your phone multiple times

If the method above doesn't work, you may try restarting your device multiple times. Just long-press the volume or side button until the power-off slider appears, drag the slider and wait 30 seconds for your device to turn off, and press and hold the side button until it restarts.

3. Record iPhone screen on a computer

If nothing fixes the iPhone screen recorder issue, you can connect your iPhone to a computer and capture the iPhone screen from the computer. In this case, you need a computer, a screen recording program on your computer, and a USB table.
