Ever have one of those days when you wish you could record what was happening on your iPhone or iPad screen and play it back for someone else?  Well, now there’s an app for that.

Display Recorder records whatever happens on the monitor for your iPhone or iPad and saves it to a local library in mp4 format.  It also records whatever you’re saying into the microphone with it.  Videos can also be shared on YouTube, put in the Photo Library or opened with other apps (like one of those video-editing apps).  In the settings, you can control whether you record audio, video or both as well as picture and sound quality.  Unless specified, there is no limit to the length of video you can create.

Simply put, this app is a marvel.  It’s particularly useful if you want to make your own iPhone or iPad app and create video instruction to go with it (which can be put online or integrated with the app).  Recordings are small in size and the sound and video is crisp and clear.

If I were to have a compliant, it’s a minor one.  I wish the app could simulcast on FaceTime so you can show someone what’s happening on your screen in real time.  It’s only one step away from remoting into someone else’s iPhone or iPad to assist them.  Great for tech support!

If you’re looking to make any sort of iPhone or iPad instructional video, look no further than Display Recorder.

Quick Take

Value:Medium-high.

Would I Buy Again:Quite possibly.

Learning Curve:Low.

Who Is It For:Those wishing to make iPad or iPhone instructional videos.

What I Like:Good functionality. Easy-to-use interface.

What I Don't Like:Would be nice if integrated with FaceTime.

Final Statement:It does what it says on the tin and then some.

Read the Developer's Notes:
!!! IMPORTANT NOTE !!!
Current version has bug with some Region Format, in that case, Display Recorder cannot record video. If you cannot record video, please change your Region Format to United States Region Format.

Please do the following steps to change Region Format:
Step1: Launch Settings app of your iPhone/iPod/iPad.
Step 2: Choose General >> International.
Step 3: Change Region Format to United States.
After changing the Region Format, your Display Recorder should work fine.

We've fixed this bug and waiting for review. Thank you for your patient!
