Swipe down from the top of your screen to see the quick settings tiles and tap the screen recorder button. A floating bubble will appear with a record and microphone button. If the latter is crossed out, you’re recording internal audio, and if it’s not, you get sound straight from your phone’s mic.

Why can’t I record internal audio on Android?

Since Android 7.0 Nougat, Google disabled the ability for apps to record your internal audio, which means there’s no base level method to record the sounds from your apps and games as you record the screen.

How do I enable internal audio on Android?

Open the sidebar menu and tap on “Settings.” Scroll down to Video Settings and make sure that “Record audio” is checked and that “Audio source” is set to “Internal sound.” Change the other options, such as video recording quality, as you see fit.
