A screen recorder that lives in your browser
Modern browsers can capture the screen on their own, so there's nothing to install and no account to make. You choose exactly what's shared, a whole display, one app window or a single tab, and the browser shows an indicator for as long as recording is on.
The video is assembled inside this tab while you record and saved straight to your computer. It never touches a server, which keeps confidential dashboards, client work and private messages private. When you stop, ClipLime tidies the file so it has a proper length and seeks instantly, something raw browser recordings often lack.
Getting the sound right
- Microphone, for narration. Pick your mic from the list if you have more than one.
- Computer audio, the sound of a video, a call or an app. Chrome and Edge can include a tab’s sound when you tick Share tab audio, and the whole system’s sound on Windows and ChromeOS. Firefox and Safari record the picture and your microphone only.
- Both at once, the two are mixed into a single track. Wear headphones, otherwise your speakers leak back into the mic and you’ll hear an echo.
If the recording comes out silent, check the sharing dialog: the audio option has to be ticked there as well.
Put your face on it with the camera bubble
Tutorials and product demos feel more personal when people can see you. Switch on Camera bubble and your webcam appears in a circle in the corner of your choice, in small, medium or large. It's drawn into the video itself, so it's there in every app you later open the file in.
The bubble keeps updating while you work in other windows. It needs Chrome, Edge or another Chromium-based browser; elsewhere the option is hidden and you can record your camera separately with the webcam recorder.
Choosing quality and format
MP4 is the default because it plays everywhere and drops straight into Premiere Pro, Final Cut, DaVinci Resolve or CapCut. WebM is there for browsers that record only in that format, and works well for the web.
1080p at 30 fps suits most tutorials: text stays sharp and files stay reasonable. Choose 60 fps for gameplay or smooth scrolling, Full resolution for detailed design work on a high-resolution display, or 720p when file size matters most. File size depends mostly on how much changes on screen, a quiet slide deck stays small, fast motion adds up.
After you stop
Cut the fumbling at the start and end with the video trimmer, shrink the file for email or chat with the video compressor, or add captions with auto subtitles. The buttons under your recording open it in those tools directly, no saving and re-uploading.
