Yes, this is a super annoying issue. Anyone else out there experiencing this? Unity, fix coming soon?

Hey guys, if you are still getting this, and have determined it is Unity-specific, would you be kind enough to let us know which versions of the following you are using?
Unity full version id (e.g. 2017.1.0f3)
XCode 9 Beta version
iOS 11 Beta version

Xcode 9 Beta 6
iOS 11 Beta 7
Unity 5.6.2f1

Hey could you try Unity 5.6.3? It seems to fix Unity Issue Tracker - [iOS] Using ReplayKit breaks screen auto-rotation, which is what you might be seeing.

Ok, I just tried it. No difference.

Ah interesting, I thought this is a iOS problem but I just checked with the calendar app, and iOS has no problems with recording landscape mode there.

Hmm, I’m not able to reproduce this on my end, and our testers seem to get it intermittently and have not narrowed down what the root cause is. Any more information you can provide about your particular setup? Is it maybe that you’ve specified an orientation in the build settings?

I am noticing it in landscape (home button to the right), iPad Pro 12.9" 2nd Gen. Screen orientation set to auto rotate mode, supporting all 4.

Hi, I’m developing an app using ARkit and I want to make a standalone button for calling the video recording function by the user. Is there such an opportunity in the unity?

Or Everyplay. We’ve been using it and it’s been a life saver with this iOS 11 screen capture bug.

Thank you, but I’m working on a non-gaming app and saving the video on the everyplay site would be a wrong decision.

I also found a plug-in, where will soon be updated to work with ios 11 https://www.assetstore.unity3d.com/en/#!/content/45295

Hi Jimmya

We are still getting this error. It seems that depends on the orientation of the device. It works in portrait but in landscape gets frozen.

I used Unity 5.6 and Unity 2017, Xcode9 Beta4 and 5, and the latest version of iOS and it is not working yet.

Thanks.

Hi everyone
Any good news about replaykit run on iOS11?
I had tried to use replaykit on iOS11.0, but that’s still not working.

iOS 11.0
xCode 9.0
Unity 2017.1.1f1

Thanks
