Screen recording on your Galaxy Tab A8 is a straightforward process built directly into the tablet's Quick settings panel, allowing you to capture activity on your screen easily.
To screen record on your Galaxy Tab A8, you can use the built-in Screen Recorder feature found in the Quick settings panel.
Step-by-Step Guide to Screen Recording
Capturing your tablet's screen content is simple. Follow these steps to start a screen recording session:
- Access Quick Settings: Swipe down from the top of the screen with two fingers to open the Quick settings panel fully. You might need to swipe left or right to find the Screen Recorder icon.
- Tap Screen Recorder: Locate and tap the Screen Recorder icon.
- Configure Sound: Choose your desired option under Sound settings from the pop-up menu. Your options typically include:
- No sound: Records video without audio.
- Media sounds: Records only the audio playing from your tablet (e.g., music, app sounds).
- Media sounds and mic: Records both the tablet's internal audio and sound picked up by the microphone (your voice, ambient noise).
- Start Recording: Tap Start recording.
- Countdown: Once the countdown finishes (usually 3 seconds), your Galaxy Tab A8 will start recording whatever's on the screen.
- Control Recording: A small toolbar will appear on the screen with options to pause, stop, draw, and access recording settings. Tap the Stop icon (a square) on this toolbar when you are finished.
Your completed screen recording video will be saved automatically to your Gallery app, typically in the "Screen recordings" album.
