Why won’t my screen recording work even though I’ve done everything the pop up tells me to do?

As you can see my “Screen Restrictions” are turned to “Allow” on “Screen Recording”, but this did not change my issue. So I went to “AirPlay” and turned the setting to “never” witch also didn’t help me. When I then tried to turn off “CarPlay” the loading sign didn’t change, so I figured that was because there were no cars near me. When I finally got to “Screen Mirroring” the loading sign in the top right hang corner continued to spin for 30 minutes before I called it quits. I then rebooted my phone and tried it again to no avail. I’m very frustrated!

iPhone 11

I tried doing that as well once I saw it on, but nothing changed. I do have a question though. Will anything be erased off of my phone is I reset all settings?


You want to have backups.


Settings reset? Typically no data loss, excluding the erase-all, which does what it says.


Return iPhone settings to their defaults - Apple Support


Factory reset—which is where this is headed—yes. Data stored locally will be lost.

What data is stored in iCloud will remain available.


Various local settings can select either local storage, or iCloud storage.


What is stored on other mail servers will remain.


Apps can be re-downloaded.


What is backed up can be restored.


What is not in iCloud, not stored elsewhere, and not otherwise backed up, will be lost in a factory reset.


Have a backup, regardless.


You should have local Mac or Windows backups, or iCloud backups, already, or you’re one drop, one corruption, one dunk, or one theft away from data grief.
