Best screen recorder for iPhone free
There was a screen recording app which was listed in AppStore a couple of days ago and it did screen recording very intelligently. Unfortunately Apple was quick enough to take it down from the AppStore. The app was called Vidyo and it tricked the iOS devices by showing your device in your own iPhone AirPlay. In other words, it AirPlay your iPhone screen via AirPlay back to your iOS 9 device and then recorded the AirPlay session.
It worked very well but as Apple doesn’t want you to record your iPhone screen without a mac, they pulled it from the AppStore leaving many buyers with money in their hands. Yes the app was a paid screen recorder but you can get it for free and I will tell you how.
