what might be the best screen recording app for 2019
and as you know if you've been watching my channel
for a while, I love to dig into screen recorders,
there's a lot of them out there,
so let's jump into this one which is AZ Screen Recorder
and let's find out
if it is the best screen recording app for 2019.
And when this video is over, go down and leave a comment
and let me know what you think about AZ Screen Recorder
or if you think there's something better out there,
let me know what that is, you know,
I read every single question and comment,
when this video is over, I'm gonna go down there
to find out what your favorite screen recorder is
or if you agree with me or not.
And of course if you are new to the channel,

Now let's open up AZ Screen Recorder
and find out if this is the best screen recorder for 2019.
So opening up Mobizen, the first thing I'm gonna look at
is the Settings which is the blue gear icon
right here in the top,
I'm gonna tap on that and as you see right here on the top
is the Encoder, it's already set for Default mode
which is more stable,
I'm gonna trust that they know what they're talking about
so I'm gonna leave that as is.
Underneath that is the Use magic button,
when you turn that on it says
single tap on the top right area of the screen
to pause or resume, double tap to stop,
or long touch to draw.
I keep this turned off,
you can turn it on and experiment with it,
see if it works for you.
Underneath that you have Stop Notifications,
moving on down from there, this is the important stuff.
You have Video Configuration, you have Resolution,
now mine's set to 1920 by 1080 but if you tap on it,
you can see that it goes all the way up to 2010 by 1080,
that's really big.
But I'm gonna keep mine at 1920 by 1080
and if you find that your phone's a little bit laggy,
go into Resolution and reduce it down
until you no longer have lag.
Underneath that is the frame rate,
mine's currently set for 30 frames per second,
but for this video, I'm actually gonna reduce it down
to 24 frames per second and if you're a gamer,
you want smoother video,
so you want to up yours up to 60 frames per second.
Closing that down and moving down to Bit-rate,
you can open that up and set that
to whichever one works best for you,
I keep mine on 12, you can move it to Auto
which it might change around based on your device,
again, if you find that your phone is laggy,
this is another area that you wanna experiment with.
Moving down from there is Orientation,
this is gonna change it between Landscape or Portrait,
I keep mine at Auto so whichever way I turn the phone,
it's automatically gonna work.
If you wanna record a time-lapse,
this is where you can do it underneath Orientation
and here's the Audio, this is the part
that so many people have been asking about.
It says Record Audio,
then it says internal audio recording
is not allowed by Google,
however you can turn it on and it does work in a way.
Now when it comes to recording internal audio
with an Android this is where things kinda get tricky.
What's actually happening here
as you'll see that Google says it's not allowed
to record your audio at this time
but you can still turn it on on most devices,
if you don't have an option to turn this on,
it means your phone does not support this feature.
What's happening here is as the audio is leaving the speaker
it is being recorded by the microphone,
this is how the apps get around Google's current block
on recording internal audio.
However, if you have a Samsung or an LG phone,
you need to download Mobizen
and Mobizen has a specific version
for both Samsung and LG that gives you full audio controls
that will bypass all of this
and I'm gonna put a link to a Mobizen video
that I made right there
and if you have a Samsung or an LG,
make sure you check that video out
because that's a screen recorder
that you want for your phone.
And for everybody else, you can also check out Mobizen
or you can check out this app AZ Screen Recorder.
Both of these screen recording apps are fantastic,
I've used Mobizen in the past to show all of my tutorials
but I'm gonna start using AZ Recorder
to see how that compares with Mobizen
and maybe in the future
I'll do an AZ Recorder versus Mobizen video,
so if you wanna see that,
make sure to go down and leave a comment below
and let me know if that's the video you wanna see.
Moving down from there,
if you wanna add text or a logo,
your own logo on top of your screen recordings,
you can do that there, you can show your screen touches
so as you touch around on the screen,
it shows a little tap mark.
This works really well if you're doing tutorials
but if you're not doing tutorials
or you don't wanna show the touch marks,
you can turn that off.
Underneath that, you can show your camera
and this works great if you wanna do reaction videos
or you want your face in the video for some reason.
You can simply turn that on
and it's gonna activate the camera in the phone.
Moving down to the Timer, it has a time recording,
you can show the recording duration,
it has a countdown before start.
I leave this turned on so it gives me
a three, two, one countdown
before it actually starts a screen recording.
Underneath that you have the countdown value
and that's where you can choose
how many seconds the countdown is.
Underneath that is Others, if you want to remove ads,
yes this does come with ads, it is free,
not sure what you'd expect with a free app
but it is free and if you want to remove the ads,
you turn that on, I think it costs
around three U.S. dollars,
however, I do not use the paid version,
I use the free version, the ads don't bother me a bit.
Growing on down from there, you have the Controller Type,
this is gonna be the bubble
which you saw when we first started
where all the icons showed up
down on the bottom right screen or a bar,
I prefer the bubble because I find the bar
is just a little bit awkward.
Moving down from there, you have the Bubble Buttons,
select five buttons to display,
this lets you choose what you actually wanna show.
For example if you're not interested in live streaming,
you can simply come in and toggle that off
and it's not gonna show up.
Underneath that you Keep notification on exit,
underneath that you have Disable review pop-up,
that means that when the recording is finished,
you're gonna get a pop-up notification
to let you know that the recording is finished
and all of that good stuff.
And then of course at the very bottom,
you have the Output directory.
Now if you want to know if I legit think
that this is the best room recorder in 2019,
I have to say maybe.
I'm still sold on Mobizen so I'm not sure
if this is gonna replace Mobizen or not
but with either one of these, you can't go wrong.
So I would say it's definitely one or the other,
Mobizen or AZ Screen Recorder.
But as always, I recommend you try them both
and see which one works best for your phone
and for your needs.
