Screen Awesome
The free screen recorder that cannot upload your video
About Screen Awesome
Screen Awesome is a versatile and privacy-focused screen recorder designed as a Chrome extension. Unlike many other screen recording tools, it emphasizes security by ensuring it cannot upload or transmit your recordings, thanks to Chrome's built-in restrictions. Users can record a browser tab, the entire screen, or camera footage directly into MP4 format, making it ideal for creating tutorials, presentations, or quick captures without the hassle of watermarking or accounts. Its standout feature is the auto-zoom function that smoothly follows your clicks, providing a dynamic viewing experience. Additionally, users can take scrolling page screenshots, annotate with arrows, blur sensitive information, redact, add step counters, and insert text—all with editable vector tools, making it a comprehensive recording and editing solution.
