Answer 2

Go to your menu

• View -> Tool Windows -> Android

You will find the record icon at the bottom left corner.

If you are using an AVD, make sure "Use host GPU" is disabled.

To take a video recording of your app:

• Start your app as described in Run your App in Debug Mode.
• Click Android to open the Android DDMS tool window.
• Click Screen Record on the left side of the Android DDMS tool window.
• Click Start Recording.
• Interact with your app.
• Click Stop Recording.
• Enter a file name for the recording and click OK.

Answer 3

Maybe your device does not support the screen recorder, there are many devices which does not support screen recorder thus this is device issue. If you want to record your app screen then simply run the app on android emulator or on genymotion and start your desktop screen recorder and adjust the desktop screen to fit emulator. There are many screen recorder for PC but i prefer cam studio 8. Thanks
