Taking a Video
Open the camera. Swipe the lock screen to the left. Or, swipe up into the action center and choose the camera icon. Alternatively, open the camera by searching for the app on the home screen and tapping it.
Make sure the mode is on "Video". If it isn't, then swipe right or left until "Video" is highlighted.
Understand your controls. There are three video modes: video, slo-mo, and time-lapse. Video mode takes a video with a 9:16 or 16:9 aspect ratio, depending on the orientation of the device. To change the orientation, rotate your phone. Slo-mo mode takes a slow motion video. You can adjust the duration of the slo-mo while editing your video in photos. This mode requires iPhone 5s or later. Time lapse mode takes a time lapse. The flash can be accessible by tapping on the lightning icon. This will allow you to choose between off (no flash), auto (flash if dark), or on (flash). The flip camera button is located next to the shutter. This flips the camera between the forward and rear facing camera.
Take your video. Tap on the red button to start. To take pictures while recording your video, tap on the white circle.
Finish your video. Tap on the stop button to do so. The video will stop recording and will be accessible in your camera roll. If you run out of storage, or if your phone runs out of RAM, your video will also stop recording automatically. You can access your video by tapping on the square in the corner of the screen.
