Record the entire computer screen across applications

This no-install desktop screen recorder captures the selected monitor directly, so visible changes in browsers, office programs, design software, presentations and other applications can continue into one recording.

Entire desktop capture

The tool requests a monitor and verifies the selected source when the browser reports it, preventing accidental recording of only this webpage tab.

Microphone and available system audio

Mix narration with audio supplied by the selected monitor when the browser and operating system permit it.

Cross-application recording

Switch among browser tabs, desktop programs and application windows on the selected monitor while one direct recording continues.

Reliable direct capture

The monitor track is recorded directly at source resolution, avoiding page-animation rendering that can freeze when a recorder tab is minimized.

Pause, resume and timed stop

Use a countdown before recording, pause temporary interruptions and optionally stop automatically after a selected duration.

Local preview and download

Review the recording, download the compatible video file and save a frame as JPG without a page-specific upload.

How screen audio and microphone recording work

System audio depends on the selected monitor

When the browser offers full-display audio, enable the system-audio option in the sharing window. Availability depends on the operating system and browser.

Microphone and system audio can be combined

The recorder can combine an available monitor-audio track with microphone narration. Some platforms provide microphone audio only.

Microphone permission is separate

Enabling the microphone triggers a separate microphone permission request after screen selection. Noise reduction settings depend on the browser and device.

Avoid echo and feedback

Use headphones when recording microphone and speaker audio together. Lower either volume slider when duplicate sound or feedback is audible.

Browser and device compatibility

Screen recording depends on secure browser capture features, operating-system permission and a user-selected source. Availability is detected before recording.

Capability	Expected behaviour	Important limitation
Desktop whole-screen capture	Select Entire Screen, Screen 1 or a monitor when offered.	The privacy picker is controlled by the browser; the webpage cannot silently approve a monitor.
System audio	Display audio may be offered as a checkbox in the sharing prompt.	Support changes by browser, monitor source and operating system.
Microphone	Permission is requested only when enabled.	Another application, browser policy or denied permission can block access.
Background recording	The page keeps direct monitor capture active when hidden or minimized and does not stop it through page-lifecycle cleanup.	The browser or operating system still controls whether a minimized capture surface is muted or ended.
Mobile browsers	Some mobile devices can capture limited sources.	Full-device screen capture is unavailable in many mobile browser configurations.
Video format	The tool detects compatible recording formats.	WebM and MP4 availability and codecs differ between browsers.

Private no-upload screen recording

The recording stays in the browser

The selected monitor and enabled audio streams are recorded locally. No page-specific processing endpoint receives the video.

Permission remains under your control

The browser displays its own source and permission prompts. You can stop sharing through the browser indicator at any time.

Temporary memory is cleared

Stopping and resetting releases active tracks and audio resources. Discarding the result revokes the temporary playback URL.

Protect people and confidential information

Obtain required consent, hide private notifications and review the final video before distributing a meeting, class, workplace screen or customer information.

Common uses for a browser screen recorder

Software tutorials and product demos

Show a workflow step by step while explaining actions through the microphone and highlighting the relevant application window.

Online lessons and presentations

Record slides, browser research, a learning platform or presentation software with optional microphone narration.

Technical support and bug reports

Capture the exact sequence that causes an issue, then share the downloaded video with support or development teams.

Meetings and interviews

Record only when participants and applicable policies permit it, and check that the intended audio source is available.

Website and design reviews

Walk through a page, prototype or visual design while recording comments across the relevant desktop applications.

Quick personal reminders

Save a short screen walkthrough for a recurring task, configuration or process that is easier to show than describe.

Screen recording limitations and troubleshooting

The whole-screen button does nothing

Use a secure HTTPS page, allow screen-capture permission, keep this tab active and click Start Whole-Screen Recording directly.

System audio was not included

Enable the system-audio checkbox in the browser picker when available. Some operating systems and browsers do not provide full-display audio.

The file becomes very large

Stop and download long recordings in sections, or choose 15 or 30 fps and Compact quality to reduce memory and file size.

Recording slows the computer

Lower the frame rate or quality, close unnecessary applications and avoid recording several high-motion displays at once.

The video cannot be opened

Try the Automatic format option and play the result in a current browser. Different applications support different containers and codecs.

Recording stops after closing the browser

This is expected. Keep the browser running, do not refresh this page and prevent the computer from sleeping until the recording is finalized.

Frequently asked questions about online screen recording

Answers about whole-screen and desktop capture, system audio, microphone narration, background recording, video formats, privacy, mobile support and common recording problems.

What does this whole-screen recorder capture?

It records the entire display selected in the browser sharing prompt. Everything visible on that monitor can be captured, including browser tabs, desktop activity, application windows, presentations and software demonstrations.

Can it record other applications outside the browser?

Yes. Select Entire Screen, Screen 1 or the equivalent monitor option in the browser picker. The recording then follows visible activity across applications on that display instead of being limited to this webpage.

Will recording continue if I minimize the browser?

The recorder now keeps the capture and recording streams active when this page becomes hidden or the browser window is minimized. This requires selecting an entire monitor, not a browser tab or application window. The browser or operating system can still temporarily mute or permanently end capture, which a webpage cannot override.

Why does the browser still show tabs and windows in the sharing picker?

For privacy and security, a webpage cannot silently force a monitor selection or bypass the browser picker. This tool requests an entire display, excludes the current tab where supported and rejects a tab or window when the browser reports that the wrong source was selected.

What should I select in Chrome or Edge?

Choose the Entire Screen tab, select Screen 1 or the required monitor, enable system audio when offered and then choose Share. Do not select the Current Tab, Chrome Tab or Window sections for whole-screen recording.

Are my screen recordings uploaded?

No page-specific upload endpoint receives the recording. Capture, recording, preview and file creation occur in the browser, and the finished video remains on the device unless you choose to share it elsewhere.

Can I record screen and audio together?

Yes. Enable system audio and microphone before starting. System-audio availability depends on the operating system, browser and the sharing options offered for the selected monitor.

Why is system audio missing from my recording?

Some browser and operating-system combinations do not provide full-display audio. In Chrome or Edge on a supported desktop, enable the Share system audio option when it appears. Microphone recording can still work separately.

Does the recorder require an account or installation?

No account, extension or desktop screen-recorder installation is required. A compatible desktop browser, HTTPS and permission to capture the selected monitor are required.

Which video format will be downloaded?

The tool checks the recording formats supported by the current browser and uses the selected compatible option. Most browsers provide WebM, while some platforms may provide MP4.

Can I choose WebM or MP4?

Yes when the current browser reports support for that recording format. Unsupported options are disabled, and Automatic selects a suitable available format.

Can I pause and resume a recording?

Yes. Pause temporarily stops adding content, and Resume continues in the same recording. The displayed recording duration excludes paused time.

Is there a recording time limit?

The tool does not impose a fixed recording limit. Long recordings increase browser memory and temporary storage use, so available device resources become the practical limit.

How can I reduce the recording file size?

Choose a lower frame rate or a compact quality setting, shorten the recording and avoid unnecessary high-motion content. Whole-screen recording keeps the selected monitor resolution for reliable background capture.

How can I improve recording quality?

Use the monitor native resolution, choose 30 or 60 frames per second when supported, select High quality and close unnecessary high-load applications before recording.

Why was screen sharing denied or cancelled?

The permission window may have been closed, no monitor may have been selected, or capture may be blocked by browser or operating-system permission settings. Return to the page and start again.

Why does the tool reject my selected source?

The browser reported that a tab or application window was selected instead of an entire monitor. Start again and choose Entire Screen, Screen 1 or the equivalent display option.

Why did the recording stop unexpectedly?

Recording ends when screen sharing is stopped, the browser closes, the page reloads, the selected monitor disconnects, the computer sleeps, permission is revoked or the browser or operating system ends the capture track. Minimizing this page no longer triggers tool-side cleanup.

Why is the recorded video black or blank?

Protected content, graphics restrictions, a disconnected monitor or operating-system privacy settings can block screen pixels. Test with an ordinary desktop application and check screen-recording permission for the browser.

Does the recorder capture notifications?

Yes. A whole-screen recording can capture visible notifications, passwords and confidential information. Enable Do Not Disturb and close private content before starting.

Can I record on a phone or tablet?

Full-device screen capture from a webpage is unavailable or restricted on many mobile browsers. A current desktop version of Chrome, Edge, Firefox or Safari provides the most practical experience.

Can I mute microphone or system audio?

Disable the unwanted audio source before starting. During preparation or recording, the available volume controls can reduce a mixed source to zero.

Can I save a screenshot from the recording?

Yes. After recording, move the playback video to the required moment and choose Save Current Frame JPG. The image is generated locally from that frame.

Is it safe to record meetings, classes or private work?

The recording is created locally, but you remain responsible for consent, confidentiality, copyright and workplace or local recording rules. Review the final video before sharing it.
