Programmatically start and stop screen recording. iOS-only for now. If you get a build error because it can't find ReplayKit, check my GitHub for the expo-record-screen-config-plugin or something similar-sounding – it adds ReplayKit to the build.
yarn add expo-screen-recorder
import * as ScreenRecorder from "expo-screen-recorder"
// anywhere in your code
const micEnabled = false
await ScreenRecorder.startRecording(micEnabled) // this includes the permission request, and no it can't be separated unfortunately, ReplayKit doesn't let you (as far as I know)
// if you want to separate it, create a function that starts and stops screen recording right after
// also, once permissions accepted, they wont be asked for again ONLY for that session, or if it's been longer than 8minutes lol
const outputUrl = await ScreenRecorder.stopRecording() // you can also provide a file name: stopRecording(fileName)
