Getting started

Your first recording

Record, stop and export a video in under a minute.

  1. Click New Recording, or press ⌘R. The home window steps aside and the recorder bar appears at the bottom of the screen.
  2. Choose what to record: Display, Window, Area or Device, then pick the display, window or area from the menu beside them.
  3. Choose a camera and microphone if you want your face and voice in the video.
  4. Click Record. A three-second countdown runs, then recording starts.
  5. Do what you want to show. Click as you normally would; every click becomes a zoom.
  6. Click Stop, or press ⌃⌥R from any app.
