Once you’ve installed the Screenity extension and set it up, you are ready to start recording your first video!
Setting up your recording
- Click on the Screenity icon on the address bar to open up the recording popup.
- If this is your first time opening Screenity, you might be prompted with camera and microphone permissions. Click Allow to give Screenity permission to record your microphone and camera.
- Choose what you want to record: Screen, Tab Area, or your camera.
- If you’d like to show your camera in your recording, select your device on the camera dropdown.
- Once it’s enabled, you will be able to flip the camera, and enable custom camera backgrounds.
- Set the microphone through the dropdown below.
- If you want, you can enable Push to Talk to only record the while the Alt+Shift+U keys are pressed (Option+Shift+U in Mac).
You can check if your microphone is picking up sound by looking at the green audio waveform.
- You can set any additional settings by clicking on Show more options.
- Click the Start recording button to start making your video
- You might be prompted with permission to record. Accept, and your recording will begin! ✨
When Screenity is recording, you will see a red circle on the address bar. You can click on it to stop, or use the controls in the toolbar.
