I want to record a short video of the app I'm developing.
I'm using QuickTime and iPhone connected via lightning cable.
The moment I rotate my phone the recording stops.
Is it possible to record such a video?
Possible workaround: record my whole screen while preview of the iPhone is on.

The reason this happens is because a video cannot change orientation mid-record.
There's a reason you haven't seen anything rotate on Youtube either -- it simply isn't equiped to all the sudden change from widescreen to portrait.
Solution:
Quicktime (assuming you're on a mac based on your screenshot) also lets you select "New Screen Recording" from the File dropdown menu. You could record your whole screen like you alluded to, but if you want a more controled/correct size, you would do the following:
I know, it's a little involved. Likely easier to buy some software, but for free -- you can't beat it.
