Eli5 how does iPhone video recoded its own screen?! I’m baffled. Not much online about how it works either.

Question

I know how to record the screen. But how does it actually work??

Answer 1

Anything you can see on your screen is handled by the internals of the phone like the processor and then projected onto the screen. The screen record app/feature simply makes a video of that projection while also projecting it onto the screen. There aren’t any cameras or anything involved. It’s all done on a software level.
