Before we get started, let's check the list of equipment you'll need:

• A Mac running OS X Yosemite.
• An iOS device running iOS 8 — iPhone, iPad, iPod touch will all work.

2. Open the Applications folder.
3. Double-click on QuickTime Player.
4. Click on the File menu.
5. Select New Movie Recording.
6. Click on the downward-facing arrow to the right of the record button.
7. Under Camera, select the name of your iOS device.
8. If you wish to record audio from the device, select its name in the Audio source list.
9. Click on the red record button to begin recording video from your iPhone.
10. When you're done, click on the button again to stop recording.
