Samsung S22 Ultra - Record Video with Screen Off

[blackcab]

Hi

 

I have a Samsung S22 Ultra. I want to record video and turn the screen off at the same time to preserve battery life.

 

Can this be done? Using the native Camera app, the screen will not turn off or go into screensaver modeby itself. If I press the power button during video recording the camera app stops recording.

 

My idea is to record some long Ultra High Definition videos of wildlife, the sea, sunsets, etc. Turning off the screen will significantly increase battery life...

I guess you searched and found nothing?

 

You may have to use a third-party video recording app, which offers this feature.

My approach to a similar situation was to use a power bank, or if indoors a mains connection. You will need to ensure you have enough storage space and thatthe phone will not power down during the shoot
