ios 11.3 disables screen recording with apple music

I have the same issue since iOS11.3:

When I record the screen on my iPhone X, ausio playing in apple Music will mute and won’t be heard in the video later. I don’t have that issue with audio from Safari. Only Apple Music. Is it because I am not subscribed to Apple Music and listen my downloaded music? Please fix it!!

Thanks for asking this - I have been looking for this for a while. I noticed that mine stopped recording my Apple Music App a week or so ago. I also pay for Apple Music, so it's definitely annoying. Hopefully they give us this ability back, because, like many people on tis thread, I also would consider switching to Spotify. There is something annoying about paying for a service and then being told how I can and can't use it.

No it’s not piracy, only if the media is being sold or distributed for profit. I work in the legal field of the music industry and using a 30 second clip of an audio for social media is NOT media piracy. And people have a purchased Apple Music account, which monetizes the songs that they are trying to play for recording anyway.

Apple probably did this to PREVENT people from selling/giving out a FULL song through text, email, messengers, etc.

So stop trying to tell other people what they can do and calling them pirates for social media if it doesn’t affect the copyright holder (i.e. the artist, publisher, etc.) Especially if you don’t know what you’re talking about.

I hardly think getting a 30 second clip of a song to add to an Instagram

Regardless of your point of view, it is illegal. Period. Not debatable.

Without permission from the music creator, this is illegal. You do not have the right to synchronize commercial music with pictures and create video clips.

Syncing music with images is.

Without permission from the music creator, this is illegal. You do not have the right to synchronize commercial music with pictures and create video clips. That they disappear in 24 hours is moot.

You clearly know nothing about licensing.

You do not purchase an Apple Music account, you subscribe to one and accept limits for using the music. One of them is not right to redistribute the music.

if it doesn’t affect the copyright holder (i.e. the artist, publisher, etc.)

Seriously? You can't possibly work in the music industry with that mindset and belief.

Especially if you don’t know what you’re talking about.

Et tu?

Yes. I talked to an Apple support member and they said it because of Licensing/copy rights. People can record music and turn it into a music file. I guess they don’t people to pirate songs. It must of been a hidden apple update feature, which I regret updating on my new phone. Thankfully I can still do it in my older iPhone. Good luck!

I am trying to screen record an issue with my security camera to share with the support area for the device and since the 11.3 upgrade it won’t work. I used to film clips of my app to demo it for others. Those were two great use cases and now I can’t do it. What good is a screen recorder if it won’t let you record a screen?????I sure hope this is a bug to be fixed, because ii am not a pirate of anything and this is a loss for users.

I’m still having this issue. I can screen record everywhere else except for FaceTime and Apple Music. This is super frustrating as there was a moment where i used FaceTime, that I wastrying to capture ): and this feature ruined it all. If I would of known, I would of purchased a third party app... nice going apple.

**** **** up! You dont even know what piracy is! Piracy is just when you are trying to make money! We are just teying to share the musica that we love so other people can know whats out there!

Thats free advertising ******* dumb!

What about me? I payed money for 80% of my music cause it’s not available in my country according to Apple Music. Subscription aside, I bought the songs. If making clips is piracy then so is playing a cd album you bought at club for people who don’t own it? 🏽♂

Has anyone found a solution?

I love apple music app but definitely looking to switch to Spotify if this problem persist, I love screen recording my music!

Same here. This stinks.

Same issue, hope is only a bug, cause i was used to use this function 😢

dear Apple, fix/reintroduce it please!

I am also having the same problem.
