i see. no the other party did not record the meeting because i was in charge of doing so, and only i had the intent of screen recording the meeting. so is there totally zero way to get the audio?

It depends on the different apps you could be using. Using screen recording is dependent on additional settings. You should have used the recording features built into Zoom, especially given the screen recording could also record other background sounds. I just checked my iPad, and the microphone is off in Zoom by default. I just did a test of putting the mic on in Zoom. Then closed Zoom and when I opened it back again, then went to screen recording the mic is on. So it seems it saves the last setting. This would be something you would have to turn on. I would imagine that you have turned on the mic on the iPhone one time when you did a recording and it stays that way.
