Screen Recording Guide for Researchers

If you're looking to prompt scouts to record their entire mobile screen and walk you through an experience in a mobile app outside of dscout, we recommend using the Screen Recording - App question type. Native OS screen recording technology is used to record screen activity, and scouts are shown a tutorial on how to screen record (below).

All Android devices with dscout app version 4.19.0 and above

Looking to record a specific link? You can use the Screen Recording - Link question to guide scouts through a specific prototype or website. This tracks and illustrates the scout’s movement via a blue dot in the recording.
