Can't you do this in Quicktime? Or is there added functionality with this.

On top what QuickTimes does, Lookback USB captures video from the Mac's FaceTime camera, rotates the screen if the device was rotated, supports unplugging and replugging the device mid-recording, and automatically uploads to the Lookback platform, for easy cloud sharing and team collaboration.
yes. All you do is plug in your iPhone / ipad, open Quicktime and go to FILE > NEW MOVIE RECORDING then click the little drop down and select your iDevice from the list as the source. BOOM. Now you can record. I use it all the time.
Would be great not to add another cloud storage location for our team. Any plans to integrate with Box, Drive, etc?

Hey all! Thanks for the votes! We created this as an addition to our user research platform - creating another easy way to share iOS and Apple TV recordings. We capture the user's face and mic via the Mac to give a clearer insight into their understanding of the app they are testing. Hope this helps!
It works with the new Apple TV?!
Maker
sure does!!
Need a bit of explanation

Hi Oureil, one of the Lookback founders, Nevyn, wrote about the differences between Lookback USB and QuickTime in this blog post if you are interested:

do you still need more information? FAQ at the Lookback website might be useful:
Awesome!
Would be nice to be able to trim the video after.

yeah that'd be very nice! That miiight be an upcoming feature, no promises! But until then, you can share parts of a recording :) For example, for some real e-sports moments, see:
Nice! I have been using QuickTime Player to record the animations for my blog . But I will definitely be giving this a go now. Is there a way to record the screen without any sound? I am currently having to open each video in Adobe Media Encoder to remove the sound and would love to find a quicker work flow.

turn off the mic and camera and you are good to go
