If, for some reason, you would like to record a video without audio using your Android device, then you can do the following steps below. It’s a great option especially if your device does not allow video recording without audio by default.
How to record a video without audio in Android
- On your Android smartphone or tablet, download [1] and install a free app called “Secret Video Recorder”.
- After installing the said app, it will automatically add two icons to your device. The first one is the “SVR” icon for recording while the second one is the “SVR Preferences” icon for the app settings.
