Want to record your MacBook’s screen but don’t know how? It’s okay. We’re all at some point ignorant to trivial things in life. Nothing to be ashamed about.
So there are a couple of ways you can take a screenshot or record your MacBook’s screen.
The more cumbersome method is to launch QuickTime Player, go to File > New Screen Recording.
Once you press New Screen Recording, a small popup will appear like this:
There are options you can select that let you record the whole screen, a part of the screen, or a specific window, and once you’ve selected, just hit Record and BAM! You’re recording your screen.
Easier method to record your MacBook’s screen
But why did I say the above is a cumbersome way to record your MacBook screen? Because there’s a simpler, way more convenient method:
All you got to do is press command + shift + 5.
When you do, the same popup above conveniently appears and you can start recording your screen without any further steps.
