Free online screen recorder
Record your screen, a window or a browser tab right here. Nothing to download, no sign-up, no watermark. You get an MP4 file that stays on your computer.
This browser cannot record the screen
Phones and tablets do not let a web page record the screen. Open this page in Chrome or Edge on a computer.
What to record
Your browser will ask you to pick a tab, a window or the whole screen.
Keep this tab open while you record. The video is saved when you press Stop.
The recording stopped at the 15-minute limit. Your video is complete up to that point.
Record often? The Chrome extension never loses a video
This page keeps the recording in the tab until you download it, so a crash or a closed tab loses it. The free SureRec extension writes the video to disk every second and recovers it after a crash. It also keeps a list of your recordings and stops from any tab with a keyboard shortcut.
Add to Chrome, it's freeHow it works
- Choose whether to include audio and the microphone, then press Start recording.
- Your browser asks what to share: a tab, a window or the whole screen. To record sound, tick Also share audio in that dialog.
- Press Stop, watch the result and download it as an MP4 file.
Questions
Do I need to download or install anything?
No. The recorder runs in this page. Your browser asks what you want to share and the recording starts.
Is there a watermark?
No. Nothing is stamped on the video.
Is my recording uploaded anywhere?
No. The video is recorded and kept inside your browser, and you download it as a file. It never leaves your computer.
How long can I record?
Up to 15 minutes per recording, as many recordings as you like. For longer videos, such as a whole class or meeting, the extension has a Pro version with no time limit for a one-time €29.
Can I record sound?
Yes. You can record the sound of a tab or of the system together with your microphone, mixed into one track. On a Mac, Chrome shares the sound of a tab but not of the whole system.
Which browsers work?
It is built for Chrome and Edge on a computer. Other desktop browsers may record without system audio or save a WebM file instead of MP4. Phones and tablets do not allow screen recording from a web page.
My file is a WebM and it will not open
Convert it with the free WebM to MP4 converter. It also works in your browser and uploads nothing.
