## What is AZ Recorder?

Show anyone how to do anything on iPhone.

AZ Recorder turns a screen recording into a clear, step-by-step guide. Record yourself doing a task once — changing a setting, using an app, filling in a form — and AZ Recorder does the rest.

HOW IT WORKS
1. Record the task: tap Record and do it on your iPhone as usual.
2. Get the steps automatically: every new screen becomes a numbered step with a suggested caption such as “Tap Accessibility”.
3. Polish and share: edit captions, circle what to tap, then share the guide as a PDF or as images.

FEATURES
• Automatic steps — AZ Recorder finds each new screen in your recording and skips transitions and blank frames.
• Smart captions — text on each screen is read on your device to suggest what to tap next.
• Private info hidden — emails, phone numbers and card numbers are pixelated automatically.
• Mark up — circles, arrows and highlight boxes show exactly where to tap.
• Edit freely — rename, reorder or delete steps and rewrite captions.
• Share anywhere — export a PDF document or one captioned image per step for chat apps.
• Private by design — guides are made on your iPhone. Nothing is uploaded unless you share it or go live.

Perfect for helping parents and grandparents, onboarding customers or teammates, writing support answers, or keeping notes on how you set something up.
