Screen Recording

23 apps

Screen recorders capture the whole display, a window or a region to video or GIF, for tutorials, bug reports and demos. macOS includes basic recording via Shift-Command-5, so dedicated apps earn their place with webcam overlays, system audio capture, keystroke display or GIF export.

OBS Studio is the free, open source standard for recording and live streaming with scenes and multiple sources. Kap is a simple open source recorder that exports GIF and MP4, LICEcap records lightweight GIFs, and KeyCastr shows your keystrokes on screen while recording. Check how an app captures system audio and whether exports carry a watermark in free versions.
