Answers about recording, editing, layouts, privacy, and export.
What makes Screen Recorder different?
Screen Recorder combines screen capture, automatic zoom, smooth cursor motion, camera recording, and a timeline editor in one Mac app. Your recording opens in the editor as soon as you stop.
Can I edit a recording without importing it?
Yes. The editor opens your recording on the timeline immediately. You can trim, split, crop, add text or media, change the background, and export without moving the file to another app.
Can I make videos for desktop, iPad, and mobile?
Yes. Choose a desktop, iPad, or mobile layout template. Screen Recorder arranges the screen, camera, and background for the selected format.
Can I record my camera and microphone?

Do my recordings stay private?
