As more and more people turn to digital means to work, connect, and sell their products, a good screen recording app is a must-have. So, in order to deliver a feature-packed screen recording tool for Chrome users, a designer, developer, and entrepreneur named Alyssa X (Twitter/@alyssaxuu) built a nifty screen-recording Chrome extension that comes with as many features as you can imagine.
Dubbed as Screenity, this handy tool can record any screen that is opened in your Google Chrome browser. It even lets you live-annotate on them. This is a pretty useful tool for those who are working from home and also for the students who are continuing their studies digitally.
Now, to use Screenity, all you have to do is add it to your browser from the Chrome Web Store and start using it. No unnecessary sign-in or payment is required.
Following your allowance, you can then choose to record one of the tabs, the entire screen, or just your face staring at the camera. You can also turn on a 3-second countdown timer and push to talk control.
Moreover, you can even use the toolbar at the bottom-left corner of the screen to annotate, mark-up, and add text to different areas of the screen to help the other party/the viewer better understand your contexts and descriptions.
Oh wait, did I mention that you can also edit your recordings after you capture them? Well, you can trim the video or remove specific parts of the video on the editing page which shows up after you stop the recording. Then you can save the recording to your PC or laptop as a .mp4, .gif, or .webm file. Or you can even save it directly to your Google Drive.
