record video while using another app

Hello

i have an iPhone 13 Pro max

i want to use the phone to record video while using another app


i want to start to record a video while driving, then keep recording when I switch to Apple Maps for sat nab guidance


basically use the use as a dash cam to record my journey, but allow me to use the phone as navigation aid

when I currently do this, as soon I switch from video scree to maps, the video stops recording is there a way do this, or an app to allow you to record while using another app

iPhone 6s Plus, iOS 15

Hello JimB2660,

Thank you for posting to the Apple Support Communities. 


It is expected for the Apple Camera app to stop recording if you close the app or switch to a different app. You can send feedback directly to Apple about this feature, just use this online form: Product Feedback


You can also check the App Store for a third party app that may be better instead. More info on that here: Download apps and games on your iPhone or iPad.


Cheers!
