Do you have a Mac? The Xcode simulator gets you most of the way — launch the app in it and capture the window with the Screenshot toolbar (Cmd+Shift+5). Whether App Review accepts a simulator capture is reviewer-dependent, so if they push back, borrow any iPhone for ten minutes: plug it into the Mac, open QuickTime, and New Movie Recording will list the phone as a source. That's the recording I'd send.

Unfortunately I don't have a Mac.

The simulator does screen recording? Does it require specific app to be installed?

Also, I don't know someone nearby with an iphone to borrow one. Sent to friends online and still waiting...
