I've seen people that simply play a backing track through a stereo or computer in the room , play along with it through an amp & record the whole thing with a phone video recorder. The trick here is to get the audio from the backing track & the guitar amp to be balanced enough in the room & not over or underwhelm the phone mic. The audio isn't as good as it can potentially be, but it works & it's easy.
Or you can put the backing track & your recorded guitar audio into a DAW with video capability & mix the whole thing together using line in options or close miking on your guitar amp. Then you have the potential for much better audio. Record yourself playing along with the Go Pro while you are tracking & import the video into the DAW to line up the video & the finsihed audio!
Hope that helps!
