Best practices

  • For videos longer than 2 minutes, the Chrome Extension automatically records in 2-minute chunks to ensure performance and reliability.
  • Close unnecessary tabs to avoid distractions and ensure smooth performance.
  • Test before sharing to confirm audio, video quality, and what’s visible.
  • Use a headset if recording with voice for clearer audio.
