User blog:McLarenP1 Boy/ReplayKit Rant

Another rant I had to make. I am honestly very pissed off about this feature because it is very clearly bugged. '''ReplayKit is inherently just as flawed as Apple's current products. Period.'''

Off sync audio?!
This is a big problem that comes with ReplayKit recordings. If I can even save my recording (which is rare now), when I go to view the video, the audio is not on sync with the video!

If I try to fix it with Avidemux, YouTube just ruins the audio sync even further! I cannot use Handbrake properly either!

The only fix I could find is by doing the "reset memory" trick on the iOS device before starting up the game and recording. But this fix hasn't always worked for me. Sometimes, I do this trick twice and my recording's audio now goes offsync!

Recording not saving?!
This is the part of ReplayKit that pisses me off the most. How can I record my run of the Tokyo Ace Race in the Porsche 918 Spyder with Weissach Package EDD only for my recording to become permanently unsavable?!?! If I try tapping the ReplayKit icon to stop the recording, the recording keeps going on and on!

Worse, if I even try to save my recording, the whole game becomes unclickable! As in, I can no longer exit out of where I was when I tried to save the recording!

These mean that my recordings cannot be saved most of the time!

Good news
'''On my Android device, I have Game Tools which can let me screenshot my games and even record them without the problems of ReplayKit! That's the power of owning a Samsung device like a Samsung Galaxy S7!'''

Conclusion
I will NEVER use ReplayKit ever again if it continues to plague me with unsavable recordings or offsync audio. Sure, Game Tools does have its problems, but they are nowhere as severe as those of ReplayKit.

If there are any good screen recorders for iOS, tell me in the comments below.
