[App] Screen Recording on N9 No Root

The permissions for this app are terrible, I would not put this on my phone. I'll stick with root!

Edit:

The permissions are so bad, I feel like I should add them to this post to hopefully discourage anyone from installing this spyware. See below...

Thanks Brian706! Just found out about "AZ screen recorder". Have had a quick run and it seems about as good as Mobizen - the permissions do not seem quite as bad, though "modify system settings" could include a lot!??
