Record your screen
Record your whole screen, one window or a browser tab, with your microphone and an optional camera window. There's no sign-up, no watermark and no time limit, and the video is saved straight to your computer.
Before you start
Your browser asks what to share: the whole screen, a window or a tab. To record the computer's sound, tick Share audio in that box (Chrome and Edge only).

You can also stop with your browser's Stop sharing button.
Your recording
This browser saves WebM, which plays in Chrome, Edge, Firefox and VLC. For an MP4, run it through Compress video.
Want just part of it? Compress video makes it smaller, and MP4 to GIF turns a short clip into a GIF.
Deskshed, our desktop app for Windows. It's built for whole folders of photos and documents. The screen recorder stays here on this page, and it's free. Pay once: $19 for the first 500 buyers, then $29.

Screen recorder: common questions
How good is the quality?
It records at your screen's full resolution, up to 4K, as an MP4 that plays anywhere. Choose Apps, slides, websites for the sharpest text, or Video, games, animation for smooth 60 frames a second. At High, a 1080p screen records at about 5 Mbps, so up to about 40 MB a minute, and usually much less when little on screen moves. Best doubles that; larger screens get proportionally more.
Is there a time limit or a watermark?
No. Record for as long as you like, with no watermark and no account. Very long recordings use a lot of your computer's memory until you download them, so save long sessions in parts.
Is my recording uploaded?
No. Your browser records it and keeps it in this tab until you download it. It never goes to this website or anywhere else. Close the tab without downloading and it's gone.
How do I show my face like Loom?
Tick the camera option. Your camera opens in a small window that stays on top of everything, so it's in the recording when you share your whole screen. Drag it to any corner. If you share only one tab, the camera window isn't in that tab, so share the screen instead.
Why is there no sound from my computer?
Tick Share audio in your browser's sharing box. Chrome and Edge can share a tab's sound, and on Windows the whole system's sound too. Firefox and Safari can't record computer sound yet, but your microphone works in all of them.
Can I record on my phone?
Not here. Phone browsers don't allow screen recording, but iPhone and Android both have a screen recorder built in, in Control Center or Quick Settings.
Does it replace Loom?
For recording and saving a video, yes. Loom also hosts the video and gives you a share link, which needs someone's servers. Here you get the file, and you share it however you like: email, a shared drive or YouTube.
