Screen Recorder - XRecorder
Overview
Screen Recorder - XRecorder has established itself as the premier utility for mobile content creators, educators, and gamers. With a staggering 4.8-star rating from over 7.5 million reviews, it is the most downloaded screen capture tool in the Android ecosystem. Its primary mission is to provide high-quality, 1080p video capture (up to 120FPS) without the need for root access or a computer, effectively bypassing the historical technical barriers of the Android OS.
Technically, XRecorder’s most significant breakthrough is its support for internal audio recording. Since Android 10, the app has utilized the system’s media APIs to capture in-game sound without external noise, a feature that was previously impossible for non-rooted devices. The app also incorporates a "Floating Ball" UI—a semi-transparent control hub that stays on the screen, allowing users to pause, resume, and annotate their recordings with "Brush Tools" in real-time. This makes it an invaluable tool for mobile gaming walkthroughs and technical tutorials.
Beyond recording, XRecorder includes a surprisingly robust post-production suite. Users can trim, cut, and split videos, adjust speed, add music, and apply filters like "Vintage" or "Lomo" directly within the app. It also supports RTMP live streaming to YouTube and Facebook, catering to the growing "mobile-first" broadcasting market. While the app is free and does not impose watermarks, it does monetize through discrete ads and a pro subscription that unlocks 120FPS exports and advanced editing tools.

Can I record internal audio on Android 9 or lower?
No, due to Android system restrictions, internal audio recording is only supported for apps on Android 10 and above.
Does XRecorder show my clicks?
Yes, you can enable the "Show Touches" option in the settings, which adds a visual highlight wherever you tap the screen during a recording.
Can I save my videos to an SD card?
Yes, XRecorder allows you to choose between internal storage and an external SD card for saving large video files.
Does it work with apps like Netflix or Disney+?

During a recording, you can tap the brush icon on the floating ball to draw arrows, circles, or text directly onto your screen to highlight specific areas.
Is there a limit to how long I can record?
There is no time limit, but your recording will stop if your device runs out of storage space or the battery dies.
