If you want to use the iPhone to record, we usually use the built-in iOS ” Voice Memo App ” to record the audio, but if you want to record secretly more secretly, then I would suggest you to make an iOS recording shortcut and match the back light Point function.After setting, just tap the back of the iPhone twice or three times to start recording. There will be production and execution instructions in the following respectively.
How to use iPhone to record secretly?
Divided into three steps, there will be detailed graphic teaching below:
- Shortcut to making iOS recordings
- Set the shortcut to the “back tap” function
- Tap the back of the iPhone 2 or 3 times to start recording
Step 1. Make an iOS recording shortcut
First, please open the built-in iOS “Shortcut App”, click ” + ” in the upper right corner, and then click ” Add Action “.
- If you are too lazy to make your own, you can just click me to download the “recording” script
Then, enter the keyword “recording” in the search field and directly add the action of ” recording ” to the shortcut, and then adjust in order:
- Audio quality: high quality
- Start recording: immediately
- Finish recording: when tapped
The second action is to add the action ” Save File ” to the shortcut and cancel the query for the storage location . Then enter “record” after the “Target Path”, and the recording file will be named record.
The third action, if you want the recording screen to be less obvious, we can deliberately lower the screen brightness, so that it is less likely to be found recording. Therefore, please add “Brightness” here, and then customize the brightness.
After making it, click ” Finish ” in the upper right corner and name the shortcut.
The “Recording” shortcut we just made will appear in “My Shortcut”.
Step 2. Set the shortcut to the “Back Tap” function
Next, we need to set the short-cut for iOS recording to the back tap function, so that you only need to tap the back of the iPhone two or three times to start recording. In addition, I also want to remind everyone that the tap function on the back only supports systems above iOS 14 and the iPhone must be an iPhone 8 or later model.
Please follow the steps below to set:
- Open “Settings”
- Click “Accessibility”
- Tap “Touch”
- Click “Tap on the back”
- Select “Tap twice” or “Tap three times”
- Choose the shortcut you just made: recording
Step 3. Tap the back of the iPhone 2 or 3 times to start recording
After setting the back tap, now you can try tapping the back of the iPhone twice or three times (depending on what you just selected), and then the iPhone will start recording.
Tap the screen again if you want to end the recording.
After the recording is completed, the recording file will be saved to the ” iCloud Drive ” in the ” File App “, located in the “Shortcuts” folder.
to sum up
If you want to use the iPhone to record secretly, you can use the method taught in this article to set the tapping function on the back as a shortcut for recording, so that you can tap the back of the iPhone to start recording. I recommend you to try it.
