Here is a video on 10 secrets of the Samsung A12 you didn’t know about.

How to screen record samsung a12?

Recording the screen of your Samsung device phone Samsung Galaxy A12 in a video with sound can be very useful for performing a tutorial or showing an acquaintance how to perform certain tasks in a Samsung Galaxy A12, saving it in a video file, and then sending or uploading it to a platform like YouTube or social networks.

Sometimes we want to record a story we saw on Instagram of an acquaintance, a phone call or video call with a family member to keep as a souvenir or to use as evidence, or a TikTok video.

There is currently no native method built into the Android screen recording feature (the Samsung Galaxy A12 ships with the operating system Android 10) to videotape the screen, so you must use the Samsung Game Launcher application or third-party applications. Follow these steps to make this recording on your Samsung Galaxy A12:

If, on the other hand, you want to take a screenshot of your Samsung Galaxy A12 as a still image rather than a video, click on the following link and follow the instructions.

First step:

First and foremost, we will ensure that the screen recording icon is present in the quick access panel of our Samsung Galaxy A12. (If we already have it, skip to point 5)

To test it, we unlock our Galaxy A12 and slide a finger from the top edge of the screen down a few centimeters to reveal the quick panel, which contains quick settings such as connecting to a Wi-Fi network, connecting Bluetooth, mute, airplane mode, and so on. Slide down with one finger to reveal the full panel, and look for the screen recording icon shown below:

Second step:

If we don’t see the screen recording icon on our Samsung Galaxy A12’s quick panel, click on the edit icon, which is normally three points vertically from your Samsung galaxy phone.

Third step:

A floating menu will appear; select “Button order” to change the order of the buttons on your Samsung Galaxy A12.

Fourth step:

The icons of the settings that we have already defined in the Samsung Galaxy A12 quick panel will appear below, separated by a blank space, and we look for the screen recording icon of your third party app, click on the icon, and drag it to the bottom to add it to the quick panel.

If you do not see the screen recording icon on your Galaxy A12 device, it is possible that the manufacturer has disabled it or that it is not available on the Samsung Galaxy A12, in which case we proceed to the section “If we do not have the option to record screen natively.”

Fifth step:

We already have the screen recording icon on the Samsung Galaxy A12 quick panel; to begin recording, we have two options: simultaneously pressing the Galaxy A12’s volume up and power buttons, or a simpler and less likely to fail method of unfolding the panel quickly by sliding a finger from the top of the screen and pressing the screen recording icon that we saw in the previous steps.

Sixth step:

Choose between HD and mini video quality. By default, the microphone sound of your Samsung Galaxy A12 will be recorded (this is useful for explaining the operation of an app to a friend or recording a message while recording the video on the screen of your Samsung Galaxy A12), so if you don’t want the video to have external sounds, record it in a noise-free environment.

Seventh step:

On the Samsung Galaxy A12 screen, a 3-second countdown will appear, after which the video of everything that happens on the screen will begin to record.

Eighth step:

To stop recording, press the volume up and power buttons on your Samsung Galaxy A12 at the same time, or click “Stop icon” at the top left of the screen.

YOUR SAMSUNG GALAXY A12 DO NOT HAVE GOOGLE PLAY OR GALAXY STORE?

Check out the following article to learn how to install apps from alternative stores without Google Play and how to install Google Play if your Galaxy A12 does not already have it.

To do so, go to our application store, either Play Store, Galaxy Store, or any other that we use on our Samsung Galaxy A12, and search for “screen recorder.” Keep in mind that any free application that we download will contain advertising, and we should not download any application that requests excessive permissions, such as access to Bluetooth, contacts, or the camera.

The permissions required for any screen recording application are “Access to multimedia content and files,” “Record video and audio,” and “Show above.” The “Show above” permission is optional if you want to have a floating window with record, microphone, stop, and other controls.
