Is it possible to record FaceTime call screen?

Currently, it is not possible to record FaceTime call screens on iPhone with audio enabled.

The best the iPhone's built-in screen recorder (or any third-party screen recording app) can do is record your screen without any audio, which defeats the purpose of recording calls anyway.

And it's not just FaceTime. For example, you can only record Google Meet calls with audio on its web app. You can't do the same on your iPhone.

If you really need to record a video call on your iPhone, you might want to consider an alternative app called Riverside. According to Riverside, people can easily use the app to make and record video calls with audio without needing any other workarounds.

Use a third-party app to record your iPhone screen
