flutter_screen_recording 2.0.25

A new Flutter plugin for record the screen. This plugin can be used for record the screen on android, iOS, and web devices.

flutter_screen_recording

Flutter plugin to record the screen on Android, iOS, and web.

Current platform support in this repository:

• Android: minSdkVersion 23
• iOS: iOS 11.0+
• Web: supported through the federated web implementation

Getting Started

Import the package:

import 'package:flutter_screen_recording/flutter_screen_recording.dart';

Start screen recording:

final bool started = await FlutterScreenRecording.startRecordScreen(
  'my_recording',
  titleNotification: 'Screen recording',
  messageNotification: 'Recording in progress',
);

Start screen recording with microphone audio:

final bool started = await FlutterScreenRecording.startRecordScreenAndAudio(
  'my_recording',
  titleNotification: 'Screen recording',
  messageNotification: 'Recording in progress',
);

Stop recording and get the output path or file name:

final String path = await FlutterScreenRecording.stopRecordScreen;

Android

The Android implementation uses MediaProjection, MediaRecorder, and a foreground service.

• The plugin currently builds with compileSdkVersion 35
• The plugin manifest already includes its service declaration and required foreground-service permissions
• If you record audio, request microphone permission at runtime in your app
• On modern Android versions, you may also need notification permission for the foreground service notification

The example app requests permissions with permission_handler before starting recording.

iOS

The iOS implementation uses ReplayKit and requires iOS 11.0+.

Add the usage description for microphone access if you record audio:

<key>NSMicrophoneUsageDescription</key>
<string>Save audio in video</string>

The plugin returns the local output file path. If your app later saves the file to the Photos library, also add the appropriate Photos usage description to your app.

Web

The web implementation uses getDisplayMedia and MediaRecorder.

• Best experience is on modern desktop browsers
• Browser support depends on screen-capture and codec support
• The web implementation downloads the recorded file in the browser when recording stops

Notes

• This package exposes asynchronous APIs; use await when starting and stopping recordings
• Notification title and message parameters are used by the Android implementation
• Returned output differs by platform: native platforms return a local path, while web triggers a browser download
