Record Your Screen Without Installing Software

Instant Screen Recording

Need to record a bug report, a quick tutorial, or that gaming moment? You don't need heavy software like OBS for simple tasks. Web Screen Recorder uses your browser's built-in capabilities to capture high-quality video instantly.

Why Use This Tool?

  • 100% Private: The recording happens entirely on your device. No video data is ever sent to our servers.
  • No Installation: Works directly in Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and Safari.
  • Flexible Capture: Choose to record your Entire Screen, a specific Window, or just a Browser Tab.
  • System Audio: Option to capture system audio (great for recording calls or gameplay).

How to Use

  1. Click "Start Recording": This will trigger your browser's permission dialog.
  2. Select What to Share:
    • Chrome Tab: Best for recording a single website.
    • Window: Good for recording a specific app.
    • Entire Screen: Captures everything (including taskbar).
  3. Confirm Audio: Check "Share system audio" in the popup if you need sound.
  4. Record: Do your thing! You'll see a "Recording Live" indicator.
  5. Stop & Download: Click "Stop Recording". A preview will appear roughly instantly. Click "Download Video" to save the .webm file.

Pro Tips

  • Format: Videos are saved in .webm format, which is optimized for the web and compatible with VLC, YouTube, and Discord.
  • Muting: The preview video is muted by default so you don't hear an echo while recording, but your download will have sound!
