Now, in this guide, we’ll show you a step-by-step process on how you can use the Screen Recording feature of your macOS system to record the calls.
How to record FaceTime call on macOS
Step 1: Launch FaceTime application on your Mac and initiate a new call.
Step 2: Now launch the macOS Screenshot app from the Applications/Utilities folder or by pressing the keys Command + Shift + 5. It’s a good idea to let the user on the other end know that you’ll be recording the call.
Step 3: Now, in the screenshot app, click on “Record Selected Portion” and select the FaceTime video window.
Step 4: Once that it done, click “Options” on the Screen Capture panel, and choose a Save to location to store the recorded file.
Step 5: After that, select your Mac’s built-in microphone under “Microphone”. Then, click on “Record” to start recording on the screen.
Step 6: When you are done, click the “Stop Recording” button and the recording file will automatically get stored in the chosen location.
