Frequently Asked Questions

Does the full Screen Capture API work on iPad?

iPadOS browsers have limited support for the Screen Capture API. You can capture the browser tab contents but may not be able to capture other apps or the full iPad screen through the browser.

What is the best way to record the entire iPad screen?

Use the built-in iPadOS screen recorder via Control Center. It captures the full screen including all apps. JustRecordScreen is best for browser-specific recordings with webcam overlay.

Can I use JustRecordScreen on iPhone?

iOS Safari has very limited Screen Capture API support. For iPhone screen recording, we recommend using the built-in iOS screen recorder from Control Center.
