Choose the Right Tool to Record Screen

Posted by Digital Screencast on October 23rd, 2019

Online screen recorders help you record whatever you are doing on your computer screen. But the question is how can they benefit you, where can you get them and how can you use them? This is what we will explain in this article. So, let's get to the point without killing any more time.

As said earlier, a screen recorder, just like any other app you can download from the Internet, is an app. Every application is developed with the intention to meet the needs of end users. Some applications are meant to be used by exclusive users, such as apps developed for NASA. On the other hand, some apps are developed for the general public to use, which means anyone around the world with access to the Internet can download these apps by paying a few bucks and installing them on their computer.

Some applications are paid while others are free. This is true for online screen recorder as well. Let us first take a closer look at these apps. A screen recorder or screen capture app allows you to take pictures or video of your computer screen. It is as if you are holding a camera and taking photos or video of your monitor screen.

Technically, you can use your camera to record what you are doing on your PC, but that won't be very convenient. An easy way is to use an app to do the same job. All you have to do is launch the recording app and hit the "record now" button. The screen record app will then start recoding your activities. After you are done, it will save the video or pictures. You can then convert the videos into your desired format, such as MP4, 3gp or WMV. Ideally, you may want to save the video in MP4 format, which is the format that is compatible with mobile phones.

The videos you recorded can be tutorials to teach others on the web how to do something. For instance, if you are a web developer, you can create tutorials about how a novice can create a website from scratch. All you need to do is create a simple site on your computer while recording the entire procedure with the screen recorder. You can then share these captured videos with the entire world through your own website or through a video sharing website, such as YouTube.
