JAKARTA iPhone users get new features that are interesting and can improve the user experience thanks to the iOS 18 update. Now the Apple-made phone can record videos while playing audio.

Before this feature is released, songs playing from any music streaming platform will immediately stop when users use cameras, especially video recording. This will still happen even if the user is listening to audio via headphones.

On iOS 18, Apple added a new setting that can keep audio playback open when the device opens the camera. For some users, especially creators, this feature can be very useful because the audio played will enter the recording.

In fact, the iPhone has been able to record videos while playing audio for a long time through the QuickTake feature. However, its function is not so good because the resolution is limited to 1440p. Through the launch of the latest feature, users can now record in 4K resolution.

This feature can only be used if the user has enabled the feature through Settings. Before activating the feature, keep in mind that the audio quality will decrease. If you are still interested, here's how to activate it, reported by Macrumors.
