STEP BY STEP
6 steps
Prepare your explanation
Rehearse a single task. Close notifications and check what will be visible; a specific tab or window makes a short demonstration easier.
Confirm your account and audio
Press “Prepare recording”. If you need tab or system sound, tick “Request tab or system audio, if available”. It does not record the microphone.
Choose the source
Press “Choose screen and record” and select the source in the browser dialog. Selection and permission are requested for each new capture.
Stop and review
Press “Stop” or use the browser sharing indicator. Play the take: check the beginning, ending, legibility and whether it includes audio.
Download and trim
Press “Download video”. Keep the format and original. If the beginning or ending has spare seconds, use Trim video when your browser can open the file.
Add narration separately
If your demonstration needs your voice, record it with Record voice and add it as an audio file in Add music to a video. Disable repetition and check fades so words are not repeated or weakened. Check synchronisation.

TIPS
To get it right
Tip 1
Make a short test take first to check text and sound.
Tip 2
Break a long explanation into short tasks; each capture accepts up to 5 minutes, 100 MiB and 3840 × 2160 pixels.
Record your computer screen: common questions
Why was there no sound in the recording?
Audio depends on the source and browser, even when requested. Check the track in the preview before sharing.
Does it always download MP4?
No. It may download WebM or MP4. Downloading does not change or convert the container; renaming the extension does not convert the video either.
What happens if I exceed the limits or lose my session?
At the time limit it tries to finish the take. If it exceeds 100 MiB, stopping takes too long or it is confirmed that you are no longer signed in, the take is discarded.
Does it work on every phone?
Compatible screen capture and recording are required; use a desktop browser. The tool reports if capture is unavailable.
Is it free?
Yes. The free tools in this guide run in your browser and add no watermark. Tools that create files come with 30 welcome uses on a free account, then cost 1 credit per use; tools that show the result on screen have no usage cap. You can try them before signing up; to download the result or keep using them we ask for a free account, with no subscription.
