How to record a FaceTime call on your iPhone using your Mac

First things first: don't. Since you can't natively record a FaceTime call's audio using iOS screen recording on your iPhone anyway, you need a Mac for this, and you can already record FaceTime calls on your Mac (I mean, you are reading this whole guide, right?).

However, if you insist on recording a FaceTime call on your iPhone using your Mac, here's how.

1. Connect your iPhone or iPad to your Mac with a Lightning cable or 30-pin connector.
2. Open QuickTime on your Mac from your dock or Applications folder.

3. Click File in the Menu bar.
