Screen Recorder
Screen recording used to mean installing heavy software, but modern browsers can capture your screen on their own. It is made for everyday jobs: showing a family member how to fix a setting, recording a software bug for support, saving an online class segment, or making a quick tutorial. Everything runs inside this page: nothing to install, no account to sign up for.
When you press Start Recording, your browser shows a picker where you choose exactly what to share: a whole screen, one application window, or a single browser tab. The browser enforces that choice; this page can only see the surface you picked. If you tick the microphone option, your narration is recorded along with the screen, and sound from a shared tab can be included when the browser offers it. A live preview and timer run while you record. If you click the browser's Stop sharing button, the recording ends there too, so you are never captured longer than you intend.
When you stop, the video is ready to watch on this page and to download as a WebM file, which plays in modern browsers and can be uploaded almost anywhere. Nothing is uploaded to a server at any point: the recording exists only on your device. Screen recording works best in desktop Chrome and Edge. Most phones and Safari cannot capture the screen from a web page, and this page will honestly tell you if your browser is unsupported.
How to use
- Tick the microphone option if you want to narrate while recording.
- Click Start Recording and choose a screen, window, or tab in the browser picker.
- Switch to what you shared and carry out the steps you want to show.
- Click Stop Recording here, or use the browser's Stop sharing button.
- Watch the preview to check the recording.
- Click Download Recording to save the WebM video to your device.
Frequently asked questions
Is my recording uploaded anywhere?
No. The video is assembled in your browser and saved only when you click download. Nothing leaves your device, and closing the page without downloading deletes the recording.
Why did the recording stop by itself?
If you press Stop sharing, close the shared window, or close the shared tab, the browser ends the capture and the tool finishes the recording there. What was captured up to then is still playable.
Can I record sound from the screen as well as my voice?
When you share a browser tab in Chrome or Edge with tab audio allowed, that sound is mixed with your microphone narration. Sound from a whole screen or app window is not offered by most browsers, so there the microphone is the reliable audio source.
Why does it not work on my phone or in Safari?
Screen capture from a web page needs a browser feature currently only available in desktop Chrome and Edge. Mobile browsers and Safari do not provide it, so this tool cannot run there; use your phone's built-in screen recorder instead.
