Browser Screen Recorder with Microphone Audio
A browser-based screen recorder for capturing your screen, browser tab, or application window with audio. Recordings save as MP4, and the speech inside them can be turned into timestamped text — no software download needed.
How to Record Your Screen
Click "Start Recording" and choose what to capture — tab, screen, or window
Optionally enable microphone to add voice narration
Press M to drop a marker at key moments, and pause to skip what you do not need
Click "Stop" — the recording opens right here, with markers and trimming
Download the video, or turn the speech into text
Capture your display, tab or window with microphone — no install, no watermark
Audio will NOT be recorded
You requested audio but the browser did not provide an audio track. Reasons:
Recording the screen from inside a browser is not possible on phones — no mobile browser supports it, so there is no Record button here. Your device records the screen itself:
- Open Control Center (swipe down from top-right corner)
- Tap the Screen Recording button (circle icon)
- Recording starts after a 3-second countdown
- Tap the red status bar at the top to stop
- Video is saved to your Photos app
Safari does not support web-based screen recording. Use QuickTime Player (File > New Screen Recording) or the built-in Screenshot toolbar (Cmd+Shift+5).
Recording the screen from inside a browser is not possible on phones — no mobile browser supports it, so there is no Record button here. Your device records the screen itself:
- Swipe down from the top of the screen twice to open Quick Settings
- Tap "Screen Record" (you may need to swipe left to find it)
- Choose whether to record audio and show touches, then tap Start
- Swipe down and tap the notification to stop recording
Bring the finished file here — trim the ends, shrink it for sending, or pull the text out of it.
Speak into the microphone and the text appears on screen.
Your browser does not support web-based screen recording. Try opening this page in Chrome, Edge, or Firefox on a desktop computer.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can it capture the sound as well as the picture?
Both, and from two places at once. Your microphone gives the narration; the system or tab audio gives whatever the machine is playing, which is what you want when the point of the recording is a video or a call. The browser's share dialog is where the second one is granted — if the sound is missing afterwards, that checkbox in the dialog is almost always the reason.
What format is the recording?
MP4 with H.264 video and AAC audio — the format that opens everywhere without conversion. Where the browser cannot encode H.264 (Firefox on some systems), the recording is saved as WebM instead.
Can I get a text of what was said on the recording?
Yes. A transcript panel opens when you stop, turning the speech into timestamped text you can search, and it exports to SRT or VTT if you want subtitles rather than a document. Recognition runs in the page through WebAssembly, so the accuracy depends on the recording rather than on a connection: a headset microphone and one speaker at a time will be transcribed well, while system audio from a call with three people talking over each other will not. Live captions during recording are shown with no limit. The saved transcript is one a day, and Premium raises that to 1000.
Is there a point where a long session stops being safe?
There is no fixed cap, but the recording is held in the tab until you press stop, so it grows the whole time — a full screen at high resolution fills memory considerably faster than a single small window. Half an hour is comfortable on an ordinary machine. For anything longer it is safer to stop at a natural break and start again than to find out where the ceiling was.
