Open **Settings** → **Preferences** to choose defaults for new recordings and videos. Changing a preference does not edit recordings or videos you already made. Some options appear only when the feature is available for your account.

## Recording defaults

- **Recorder** chooses whether Screenity asks each time or starts with the Chrome extension or web app. This choice is saved in the current browser.
- **Default folder** chooses where new videos are organized in your library.
- **Disable automatic zooms** stops new recordings from adding click-based zooms automatically. You can still add zooms in the editor. See [automatic zooms](https://screenity.io/help/web-editor/add-zoom-and-effects#automatic-zooms).
- **Prioritize smoother motion**, when available, favors a higher frame rate for motion such as games or fast scrolling, even if resolution is lower.
- **Enhance voice on new recordings**, when available, applies voice enhancement to eligible new recordings. The original microphone recording is kept, and enhancement can be changed for an individual scene in the editor.
- **Name new recordings from what you say**, **Summarize new recordings**, and **Add chapters to new recordings** control which details are generated for new videos when those options are available. You can edit generated titles, summaries and chapters later.

## Transcription and discoverability

- **Transcription language** sets the language used for new transcripts, or **Automatic** to detect it. You can change the spoken language for an individual video in its **Details** panel.
- **Allow search indexing on new videos** lets search engines index new videos. It does not change existing videos or make a private video public.

## Reset tutorials

Choose **Reset tutorials** in Preferences to show the onboarding tutorials and tips again. This does not reset your other preferences.

To choose what viewers see, open **Settings** → **Viewer**. Page options such as playback, captions, transcript, comments, reactions, author name and view count apply to new videos. The call-to-action default also applies to videos that follow the account default. See [Customize the share page](https://screenity.io/help/web-sharing/viewer-settings). To edit a setting for one video, use that video's editor or **Share** settings.
