- Select the correct webcam from the Camera dropdown.
Note: If you only want to record audio, select None.
- Optionally, click on the Settings button and select a virtual background.

- Optionally, click on the Add Screen button to share your screen.
- Select either a Window, App or Screen and click on the Share button.

Record your video
Record your video
- Click on the REC button to begin recording.
Note: A countdown timer will appear before recording.
- To pause the recording, click on the Pause button.
Tip: Use the Pause Recording function to pause between slides/delivering content to ensure the recording is efficient. It can also help you to avoid recording in one long take.
Note: There is no way to redo a certain part if a mistake was made. You can either delete the recording by clicking on the Cancel recording icon (x icon) and start again or cut out that incorrect part via Editing.
- To resume the recording after pausing, click on the Pause button again.
- When done, click on the Stop Recording icon.
Warning: Once you stop the recording, the video will begin processing and you will be unable to resume recording.
- Your video will be stored in the Library section.
