Frequently Asked Questions

Press Choose screen and capture, pick a whole screen, a window or a browser tab in the box your browser shows, and the screenshot appears below. Crop it, add arrows or boxes, then download or copy it.

The share stays open, so Take another captures again without asking.

Browsers never let a website see your screen without asking. You choose exactly what to share - one window, one tab or a screen - and you can stop sharing at any time with Stop sharing or the browser's own bar.

Set the Delay to 3, 5 or 10 seconds, start the capture, then open the menu in the shared window. The countdown takes the shot when it reaches zero.

Yes. In Record video, keep Tab / system audio on and tick "Share audio" in the browser box - Chrome and Edge record tab audio everywhere and system audio on Windows. Turn on the Microphone to add your voice; both are mixed into one track.

Chrome, Edge and Firefox record WebM; newer Chrome and Edge and Safari can also record MP4, and the MP4 button is enabled when yours can. WebM plays in browsers and VLC - for an MP4 use WebM to MP4, for a GIF use WebM to GIF.

No - iOS and Android do not let websites capture the screen, so use your device's own screenshot or screen-record button there. On a computer it works in current Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Opera and Safari.

PNG keeps text and interface edges perfectly sharp - the best choice for screenshots. JPG is smaller for photos and videos on screen. WebP is small and sharp for websites.

No. Everything is captured, edited and saved in your browser, and nothing is sent to our server. Your last few saves are kept only in your own browser so you can download them again.
