Landscape video mode screen recording.

Hello.

I have just bought a new iphone 11. I sometimes need to record videos that are playing on the phone. I would do this in landscape mode. On my old iphone 7 I simmply needed to pull up from the bottom to find the record button, tap it to start and easily tap the screen to remove it, all while the video was playing or paused. With the iphone 11 I seem to either need to rotate the phone to portrait mode to access the control panel from the top right. Can I not do this while the phone is in landscape? I can't access the control panel while the video is playing in landscape viewing?

Hope this is explained clearly. Any answers, feedback of assistance would be great.

Cheers.

Stuart.

iPhone 11, iOS 14

Hi Stuart1111,


Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities. Congratulations on your new iPhone 11. It sound like you're having some trouble accessing your Control Center by swiping up on your new device, correct? If so, that's actually expected behavior. On your new device, you'll want to swipe from the top right corner to access Control Center. We've included a link for reference below. That should get it taken care of, but if not let us know. We're always happy to help!
