Recording your phone screen can be far more useful than just taking a screenshot. Never tried it? Here’s how to do it on an Android device:

• When you’re ready to stop recording, swipe down from the top of your screen and select the Screen recorder button to end the video or hit the Stop button if your phone displays one.
