Are you looking for a powerful and privacy-friendly screenshot tool?
So let me introduce you Screenityan open source extension for Chrome that will allow you to do almost anything you can imagine in terms of video capture:
- Record your current tab, a specific area, your entire desktop, any application, and even your webcam
- Capture sound from your microphone or internal audio from your computer
- Annotate your videos in real time by drawing, adding text, arrows, shapes…
- Use virtual funds and AI-powered blur effects to enhance your webcam recordings
- Zooming smoothly during recording to highlight a detail
- Blur certain areas to hide sensitive information
- Highlight your clicks and mouse movements
And that's not all since Screenity also integrates a complete video editor to edit your recordings after recording:
- Cut, crop, trim your videos
- Add or remove audio tracks
- Export to MP4, GIF or WEBM
- Send directly to Google Drive to easily share your creations
You can even set timers to automatically stop your captures after a set amount of time. Practical so you don't end up with 10 hours of rush by accident!
Since its launch, Screenity has enjoyed great success with already more than 100,000 users to its credit. The tool is available in 18 languages and its code is actively maintained by its creator Alyssa X and thanks to contributions from the community.
Of course with this tool, your recordings remain on your machine, no data is collected by a third party. You can even use the extension completely offline if you prefer.
To test Screenity for yourself, nothing could be simpler. Visit the Chrome Web Store to install the extension in just a few clicks. It only weighs around 17 MB.
Once added, you will see the Screenity icon appear next to your address bar. Click on it to open the control panel and choose your capture mode. Remember to allow access to the microphone and webcam to take advantage of all the possibilities.
You can also host Screenity yourself by getting the sources from GitHub. You will then need to load the extension manually in Chrome in developer mode. The detailed steps are explained in the README of the repository.
In short, whether you are a trainer, developer, marketer, player or simply curious, I invite you to try Screenity.
