We just discovered a cool, new feature in iOS 11 that you might not have heard about, called Screen Recording, that actually allows you to record your screen (think live screen shot), and even narrate while you do. However, it’s a little difficult to find on your iOS device. Whether you want to send a funny text of you narrating a crazy email you got, or you want to show your dad how to change her iPhone wallpaper, we think this feature is super handy.
