Mirroring your device’s screen on your Mac can be really useful if you want to demo some work or show how to recreate a bug.
This tutorial will show you how to mirror physical iOS and Android devices on your Mac while recording your screen. We will use Quicktime for mirroring iOS devices. While Android we will use a tool called Vysor (it has free and paid versions) for mirroring.
