You aren't alone. Obviously A23 doesn't have native screen record. M23 does. So we don't have any choice but to use third party app like AZ Screen Recorder.

Thanks a lot for the notice! Thankfully I haven't upgraded to One UI 6 yet.

My Samsung A23 5g (Galaxy A 236B) has a very slow charging problem after updating to One UI6. I installed Ampere.apk, and with One UI6, my Samsung A 23 5g, shows charge at ~450mAh (ie 10-11 hours for 0-100% charge, and that's unacceptable)....
