iPhone to Storyline...how?

OK.
Here's what I need to do....
I have a sales workforce who will be using a new field-based CRM system, in the field, via iPhones.
I need to have PC-based eLearning to train them how to do this, and perhaps some performance support.
Is there an app on the iPhone, or something else (?) that will allow me to record the screen actions they will do on the iPhone, (different from the PC), and then let me save as an .mp4. I can take this .mp4 and bring it into standard Storyline.
I know nothing about iPhones, so any advise and guidance, especially from anyone already doing this in terms of technology and any workflow issues would be hugely appreciated.
Thanks muchly.

Iphones can play the html5
No app, sorry
Sorry I misread your post, you can gt a screen recorder to play on the Iphone, or you could mirror the screen to a mac and record the screen, or use an iphone emulator on a PC and record the screen
If your iphone is jailbroken there's ScreenRecorder & Display Recorder from the Cydia Store - has worked great for me capturing screen activity. There's also UX Recorder...
If you have more $$ there's Reflection which does a good job.
Hope this helps.
The Reflection app works well. Here is one other option: I own the iOS SDK and often use its iPhone/iPad simulator to display any web-based content and then record the simulator window with either ScreenFlow or Captivate on a Mac. The output is an .mp4 file that coud then be used in Storyline.
Hi Michael do I need the SDk to use this? I want to record some web based content on my iphone and this looks ideal
Thanks

Thanks!
Reflector App looks like the exact thing I am looking for.
Great stuff - thanks people,
Bruce
Hi Phil, if you want to record something off your iPhone then I would suggest using the Reflection app. I often use the iOS SDK simulator, because a) I already own and use the SDK and b) its simulator lets you record something that is already 'skinned' (meaning the content is displayed inside an iPhone 4, 4S, 5 or iPad). Here is a quick sample of waht this may look like: http://dev.keypointlearn.com/xcl71_SL/iPhoneTest/
That is really Nice, the SDK is free (I think) I would only have to pay if I want to load apps onto my device is that correct
I did install version 3 a while back but never bothered when I got my last machine
I do believe the SDK itself is free (I myself have a developer license, $99/year).
Hi Michael
Thanks, I nstalled the SDK and it works great how did you record it to have the transparent dot instead of the mouse cursor? Did you use captivate and then change the pointer?
Thanks
Phil
Hi Phil,
actually I used ScreenFlow for recording, which allows you to set the cursor to a circle and change the transparency.
Cheers,
Michael
