Cmd+r Recording the simulator instead of reloading the app in React Native

As you know new feature recording simulator has been around for 14.5 simulators, however the problem is that it's set to cmd+r, we can not reload the app using cmd+r anymore, can we fix it or can we disable recording video feature? thanks.
