Screen Recorder guide

Getting started with Screen Recorder

Screen Recorder records your screen, a window or tab, your webcam, your microphone, or the screen with your webcam in a corner. It runs in your browser and the recording stays on your device.

Open Screen Recorder

Choose what to record

What this browser can record, under the stage, says what your browser allows: phones cannot record the screen, and only Chrome and Edge share sound from the screen.

1. On the right, under Record, pick Screen, Webcam, Screen + webcam or Microphone.
2. Under Sound, tick Sound from the screen or tab and Microphone as you need.
3. For Screen + webcam, pick the webcam's corner and size under Webcam.
4. Under Countdown, pick no countdown or 3, 5 or 10 seconds.

Record, pause and stop

1. Press Record at the foot of the panel (or Alt+R). For the screen, the browser asks what to share.
2. The countdown runs over the picture, then the red badge shows the time recorded.
3. Press Pause (Alt+P) to hold the recording and Resume to go on; the pause is left out of the video.
4. Press Stop, or Stop sharing in the browser's own bar.

Trim and save

A WebM is trimmed by playing the kept part once in real time. MP4 and GIF are made by the video engine, a one-time download of about 32 MB, on your device.

1. Play the recording in the player. Under Trim, move Start and End, or press Start at the playhead and End at the playhead.
2. Under Save as, choose WebM (as recorded), MP4 or GIF; a sound-only recording saves as WebM or WAV.
3. Press Download, Save to Files, or Open in… to send it to Video Editor or another app.

Tip: Open recording… in the header opens a recording you made before, to trim it or save it in another format.
