What is an online screen recorder?
An online screen recorder is a browser-based tool that captures everything happening on your screen and saves it as a video file. You can record your entire screen, a specific window, or a single browser tab. Most online recorders also let you include microphone audio, system sound, and a webcam overlay so your recordings have everything viewers need.
How to Record Your Screen Online
- Click "Start Recording" — Hit the button above to open the recording options.
- Choose what to capture — Select whether you want to record your full screen, a specific application window, or a browser tab.
- Enable audio and webcam (optional) — Toggle on your microphone if you want to narrate. Turn on your webcam to add a picture-in-picture overlay.
- Record — Click to start. A countdown gives you a moment to get ready, then the recording begins.
- Stop and download — When you're done, click stop. The video is saved as a WebM file that you can download instantly.
There's no signup, no watermark, and no time limit on recordings. The video file is generated locally in your browser.
Why Use an Online Screen Recorder?
Create tutorials and walkthroughs. Show someone exactly how to do something on their computer. Screen recordings are clearer than written instructions and way faster to make.
Report bugs with context. Instead of writing a long bug report, just record the issue as it happens. Developers can see exactly what went wrong, which browser you're using, and what steps led to the problem.
Share presentations and demos. Record your slides with your voice and webcam for async presentations. Your team can watch on their own time without scheduling another meeting.
Communicate without a meeting. Sometimes a 2-minute screen recording replaces a 30-minute call. Record your thoughts, share the file, and let people respond when it works for them.
