Users can use Google Duo to make HD video calls and access a variety of additional features. The feature to record a video call is still noticeably absent from the Duo platform, despite end-to-end encryption providing ultimate anonymity in a conversation.
So, what should you do if you want to record a video call you'll be having on Google Duo?
In this guide, we'll show you how to capture video calls on Google Duo using some clever workarounds.
Case 1 – Using Screen record on your PC/Laptop.
If you're using Google Duo on your laptop or desktop, you may record the video call using the built-in screen recorder, then save and share it with your pals. The screen recording feature is now built-in by default in both Windows 10 and Mac OS X, thanks to significant changes to both operating systems.
Case 2 – Using the screen recorder on your Tablet.
You can turn on the built-in screen record capability on the latest Android tablets and iPad series before starting the video call. The recording will be saved on your device and can be accessed via the gallery or file browser once completed.
Case 3 – Using the screen recorder on iPhone (iOS 11 onwards)
Apple included a native screen recording function in the iOS 11 upgrade, and it has been accessible for usage and has been further developed since then. The iOS version has now progressed to generation 13, and the screen record feature is still available. This is how to enable the screen recording capability on your iPhone (running iOS 11 or higher).
Step 1. On your iPhone, tap on Settings.
Step 2. Next, tap on Control Centre.
Step 3. In the ‘Control Centre’ window, tap on ‘Customise Controls‘.
Step 4. Navigate to ‘Screen Recording’ and tap on the ‘+‘ button. Exit the Settings.
Step 5. To access the control centre on your iPhone, swipe down from the right-hand side of the screen.
Step 6. Long press the ‘Screen Recording‘ button. Tap on ‘Start Recording‘.
You can conduct your Google Duo video call after you've started the screen recording, and it will be recorded by the screen recorder.
Case 4 – Using the Screen Recorder on Android
For a long time, Android has struggled with the native screen recording capability of their operating system. Although an announced screen recording functionality was included in Android 10, it was removed at the last minute due to bugs. The screen recording feature was added in the most recent update, although it still has troubles on most devices. In this case, using a third-party screen capturing tool is the best option. The 'My Video Recorder' app is one of the greatest choices available.
Here's a step-by-step guide to recording your smartphone screen using the app.
Step 1. Download and install the ‘My Video Recorder‘ app on your Android device.
Step 2. You will now see a screen record button hovering on the side of your screen.
Step 3. Tap on the recorder button and head to the ‘Video and Settings‘.
Step 4. Here, set the desired quality, resolution, and frame rate of the video recording.
Step 5. Tap on the ‘Record‘ button to start recording.
You can start your video chat on Google Duo after the screen recording has started, and the recorder will make a recording of the call that you can save and share with the other participants.
