How to Record in Landscape Mode on iPhone?

Published in iPhone Camera Video 2 mins read

Recording videos in landscape mode on your iPhone is straightforward and involves simply rotating your device before you start recording.

Here’s how to record video horizontally on your iPhone:

  1. Open the Camera App: Locate and tap the Camera app icon on your iPhone's Home Screen.
  2. Select Video Mode: Swipe through the available modes (like Photo, Portrait, Pano, etc.) until you reach Video mode.
  3. Rotate Your iPhone: Hold your iPhone horizontally so the longer sides are on the top and bottom. This is the landscape orientation.
  4. Start Recording: Tap the red Record button on the screen, or press either the Volume Up or Volume Down button to begin recording.
  5. Stop Recording: Tap the red Stop button that appears on the screen, or press either volume button again to end the recording.
  • Practical Tip: Recording in landscape is often preferred for videos intended for viewing on TVs, computer monitors, or platforms like YouTube, as it fills the screen more effectively than vertical video.

As mentioned in the reference for models like the iPhone 15 Pro or iPhone 15 Pro Max, the process is consistent:

  • Open Camera on your iPhone 15 Pro or iPhone 15 Pro Max.
  • Select Video mode.
  • Rotate your iPhone to landscape orientation.
  • Tap the Record button or press either volume button to start recording.

By following these simple steps, you can easily capture video in landscape mode on your iPhone.
