Features

Everything the recorder can do.

Record any tab or app. Draw on the page, blur out anything private, add your camera, and keep your video when you're done.

Any tab or app

Record one tab, a window, or your whole screen.

Drawing tools

Draw on the screen: pen, arrows, shapes, text.

Live blur

Blur anything private while you record.

Camera bubble

Add your camera, on a backdrop or blurred.

Cursor spotlight

Dim all but the cursor, ripple each click.

Mic and tab audio

Record both, with push-to-talk for your mic.

Custom area

Drag a box to record just part of the screen.

Tidy it up

Trim, crop, or swap out the audio.

Save it anywhere

Keep it on your device, or send it to Drive.

Markup

Draw and annotate as you go.

While you're recording, draw and annotate right on the page: pen, shapes, arrows, and text. Blur anything you'd rather keep private, or spotlight your cursor so people can keep up.

The editor

You've got the recording. Now build the video.

Open it in the editor and it becomes something worth sending. Zoom into your clicks, caption what you said, set it on a clean backdrop, then share a link anyone can open.

The free recorder

Free, and built in the open.

The recorder's free, open source, and records locally. Only you can see your videos, and we don't collect any of your data.

Free and open source

Free under GPLv3, so you can read every line and run your own copy, with 18.2k stars on GitHub.

It records locally

Recordings save locally, not to someone else's server. Yours to keep, and you can even work offline.

No account needed

Install it and hit record. No sign-up, no email. Sign in later only for the cloud editor.

Made by an indie maker

No investors and no ads behind it. Just a tool made for people like you, since 2020.
