The native screen
recording was initially introduced on Android 4.4 KitKat but the functionality
required either a rooted device with a Screen Recording app installed or a
non-rooted device with some Android Debug Bridge (ADB) commands.
Luckily, on Android
5.0 Lollipop, the process is much, much easier, as the new OS version released
with a new API that allows developers to build apps that can record screen
without the need of root access or any ADB knowhow. Currently, there are few
apps which have taken advantage of the new API and let’s users to record screen
on their lollipop smartphones or tablets.
If you’re looking for
a great screen recording app, then you should give AZ Screen Recorder a try. It’s by far one of the best app
to record a video of your Android screen. The best part of this app is that it
has no recording time limit and there’s no watermark or logo of the creator
will be displayed on your videos.
Moreover, it also
allows you to pause and resume while recording.
After you install and
launch the app, a small toolbar will appear in the middle of your screen. The
toolbar contains four different controls like Recording, Settings, File Manager
and Exit button.
When you start recording
for the first time, a few prompts will explain how the recording feature works.
You will always be able to access the recording panel in your notification bar.
On the recording panel
you can pause, stop, and start new recordings.
In the settings, you can
enable touches to show up on the screen, enable or disable audio recording, set
time limits for recording, as well as change the resolution and bitrate of
video captured.
The output format will
be MP4 file, and you can select the default folder where the file will be
saved, although it will automatically appear in your gallery app.
The app is completely
free to use, but as mentioned above, you need to have Android 5.0 Lollipop
installed. If you have a prior version, your best bet is to root your
Android device and install a screen recorder app called Shou.TV from Google
play store
