Use the Screenshot toolbar

• With iOS 11's Screen Recording tool, you can not only record a video of the screen but also record the audio and voice-overs. However, there have been some complaints regarding the audio recording.
• Some of the niceties of ScreenFlow include the program’s ability to record video not just from Mac’s screen, but also from a connected iPhone, iPod touch or iPad. It, too, can import video and audio from external webcams and microphones, and offers the highest bitrate for recording a retina display (30fps).

Mac OSX has QuickTime Player built-in. QuickTime allows you to easily do a screen recording. However, when doing so, you only get the screen – no audio. You can install Soundflower to route your computer’s audio back into QuickTime to record it. TuneFab Screen Recorder is designed for recording screen and audio at the same time on Mac and save as multiple video formats such as MP4, MOV, M4V and more. With it, you can not only record the screen on Mac but also edit the video when recording with various edit functions, like drawing an arrow, adding a text and more. In the 2016, with OSX Sierra and Quicktime 10.4 you will need to get a virtual Audio Device like SoundFlower to record your systems audio. Once you have SoundFlower installed just do these steps: Change your Mac's output to SoundFlower prior to recording in Quicktime. Start your Quicktime Screen Capture session.

To record your Mac’s Screen with both audio and video:

1. Install loopback audio (free extension).
2. Open the media you want to screen capture in your application (if it’s a browser, use Firefox or Chrome, not Safari). Start at least 5 seconds before where you want to start – this will usually give time for the application to hide any playback controls which might be distracting. Don’t press play yet.
3. Go to System Preferences/Sound. In the sound Output, choose Loopback Audio in the Output tab.
   At this point, you will hear no sound from any of your Mac’s applications, but don’t worry.
4. Go to the QuickTime Player application; choose File/New Screen Recording.
   
5. Choose if you want to record all your screen, or a portion of your screen (highlighted in red below), then click on the Record button.
   
   
6. Click on the Options menu.
   Choose the appropriate audio source, in this case Loopback Audio.
   
   
7. Go to the application that was set to play the video; press play (hopefully you queued up the video to play at least 5 seconds before the area you wanted to capture – this will usually give time for the application to hide any playback controls which might be distracting).
