Reviews & Comments of Screenity - Screen Recorder & Annotation Tool chrome extension

Really loved this extension. Previously I used google meet for recording videos as we are using google workspace for all our business needs. My day to day activity includes recording videos and storing that videos in Google Drive. Google Meet file size and the way it is recording is not satisfying my requirement. This extension helps me to record video with annotations and help me to save video directly to Google Dive and it is free. Kudos to the developer. Thanks for creating this super useful extension. Thanks.

Works nice

Perfect, very easy to use. Options of overlaying webcam and audio, with easy (one click) download, or upload to google drive. Took me ~30s from finishing the recording to have passed it to my production team and updated Jira.

works great, and free, amazing

Very bad extension!!

Amazing app. Supports both Chrome and Entire Desktop sharing. Question: Can the recording be tracked by Citrix?

Very useful tool! Thank you Dev

Great extension. Easy to use!

Great work, love the solutions. Kudos

Excellent free tool! Being free there are some issues but you can still get the job done.

does everything you want from recording extension. time unlimited videos, annotations included. and it's open source.

Loved It :)

all other extensions ask you to login before even trying to use their product. Thanks Screenity for being so generous about using your product. It is powerful, does the job in a best fashion.

Wow, This is much better than LOOM

Simple, open source and I love it.

Open source, reliable, and easy to use

Great for recording

Great app, very user-friendly and super helpful!

Loved this! Saved lot of time. Complete open source!

???

Love it

Excellent

Great free screen recorder and it is an open source code.

I appreciate that this is a completely free and advertise-free app for recording, and it looks super easy to use. However, After I record myself I can't hear any sound from the recording, even though my Mic was on and permission was granted. What could be wrong then?

I'm definitely missing the video link to share it with others

Super cool! Thank you & Well done Alyssa X I am uninstalling other extensions of this kind now, sticking with just this one!

That's extension is awesome only thing its missing is a share button so you can just share a link for someone to watch it.

I don't know if I am eligible to write review or not. But Damn you are really one of the smartest person I can think of. I need to learn a lot from you. I was thinking too high of myself due to I make one of the fastest graphql parser and server. But you are amazing, the world is too big. Thanks for the motivation. Looking forward to your other projects as well.

Unable to download or save to drive, the remove part of the video crashing the whole video to a black screen. Tried another extension, everything worked fine.

This extension works very well and the quality of the video recording is high. I am very pleased and impressed with the extension. It is easy to use and I am able to download the final product easily without hassles. I would recommend this extension for any educator as a great tool for the Teaching and Learning process.

Player is a little buggy when scrubbing through the recorded video, but loving it. Can't believe this is free when players like Loom and Vidyard are charging so much for this.

Easy to use and a lot of feature. removed all my other screen recording.

It doesn't work, maybe the problem with the current version on the store.

After start recording, I'm not able to click on some menu, buttons etc. Overall it's very good but please fix this issue asap.

Works Kind of and is Nice Tool. Problem is with video playback, I just can't easily scroll through longer video. WebCam Light Indicator is all the time on despite Webcam being disabled in the extension. Screen Recording Quality is not the best. Sometimes The extension gets extremely laggy on MacOS M1. And for what it Can do and being Open Source this is the BEST out there.

Very well thank you so much

Such a great substitute for loom. Works well - thanks for making it free:).

It is a good recorder .and its free so it just become best. one thing kind of annoy me is the file size. i get it that there is no file compressing happening.

I just install it, and my first try was Amazing. Loved it.

Great. Very useful. Thank you Alysaa X

Exceptional thing to use. It is Best and i love it

AMAZING

How can I use the annotation?

Hey, is there a exporter to export the video to youtube?

Nothing can be simpler then this. Amazing work. Thanks for team and developers for awesome work :)

It is awesome, practical and direct. Works perfect under Sierra and above OSxs. I just have one question, why it keeps injecting JS on every URL without being requested to start a record? It does not happen with any other extension. Thx!@

This is an amazing extension thank you Alyssa :) Works amazing, I have other screen recorders but they truly cant compare to this and best of all its free. People really be out here complaining because their own laptops have issues, like bruh.

Works great! Can you make this as a standalone Windows app at some point? I wish the controls weren't locked to the webpage I started the recording on because when I switch to another browser tab or any other app, even while recording the desktop, I can't access the annotation features or any other controls. But otherwise... it's simply an amazing tool!

GIF downloading not working

When it works, it works well (I had to refresh a tab before it worked, but after that it was seamless). No upselling or in-app purchases here (unlike many other recording apps...). It's also open source, so if you have a complaint, you can code a fix for it yourself.

google drive not working , also the details are not fill on details file so many platform like linked in dont accepte the video , but this application still be awesome , thank you a lot Alyssa X

Download as GIF is not working

Works great using Chrome on Windows 10. Plays just fine in Pot Player and seek works as well. I was using an extension just before I tried this one that I had to pay for. This is free, has no ads, no nasty watermarks or anything. Just a free open source Chrome extension that works great for my needs. Thank you!

nice extension thanks a lot <3

not working anymore

It is simple and work on screen. I can download the mp4, but I can not play it as the mp4 format is different with the normal one. Therefore, it is useless for me.

ABSOLUTELY A PIECE OF JUNK. IT USED TO BE GOOD. CHANGED TO NEW CHROMEBOOK AND NOW AFTER RELOADED APP IT IS HORRENDOUS. WILL NOT RECORD EVEN AFTER MULTIPLE RELOADS.

gives direct video to my drive loved it no ads also

Simple and straight-forward, how a tool like this should be. Very nicely done, and thank you. I found this extension while browsing some of Alyssa's other projects. Definitely worth anyones' time to check out the creativity. https://alyssax.com/

This is such a great tool. It's simple and there's no features to unlock or pay for. I've found my new screen recorder. Thank you!

Excellent app

This is the tool that was looking for so long, Works just as expected!

Everything is top notch. Just one issue, once downloaded I am not able to forward the video. The video runs on it's own and you can't stretch it to lets say at 32;30 min on the video

Superb extension for screen capturing including audio (Internal as well as Mic Input). Good quality output of the video (Not in HD, but of a good quality). it's awesome & handy as no need to install any extra software for this, just an extension & good to go !!

Awesome. Super working, super performance. It JUST WORKS Out of the box. Love it.

Screenity is pretty cool so far Alyssa. Will adjust to 5 STAR when I have used it more. Saving options are good for my purposes

best

wow, nice recorder & editor. i love it

Best screen recorder I found so far. I strongly recommend it.

Wow, how is this free?! I can't imagine giving this a less than perfect review. Great job on this extension, Alyssa. I like your comparison of how many features this offers compared to the competitors. I found out about you from the popular blogger in India, Amit Agarwal of labnol.org or digitalinspiration.com.

op screen recorder best and it is free of cost loved it .... try it for sure....

Amazing extension! Super easy to use. it's very helpful.

Not working

Way better than loom!

A great tool or i can say a great tool for camera video recording and many more

Amazing product

This is an awesome extension! A suggestion: can we give it a more meaningful name for downloaded file? For example, use timestamp instead of some random string?

Love it! Missing the Save on Google Drive feature (please add!)

Dude, it is dope. No word for this

The Best I've ever known. Download as soon as you finish recording is the best part. Aliissssaaaaa, the downloaded recordings is not working properly on VLC media player. I mean I'm able to watch it, but skip button and the time slider aren't working. I'm not able to jump to the desired part directly, neither i'm able to skip forward. Well, i'm able to play it in a faster speed, that's the way i skip forward , but if i miss something, there is no going back. I suggest you to do the same , record a 1hr video , and play in vlc , check if the same thing happens with you. Please look forward to my problem. Please tell me which video player should I use. P.S - i have the latest version of vlc installed.

This is the only tool you'll need!

Simple super tool...

Excellent Tool

Hi, How do I remove the toolbar from the final video?

awsome tool i have never seen before

Best Software especially 4 Students like me........

Its not working for me! Why? can't they stop scamming?

Best and Easy to use. Video quality can be improved its 720P max.

looks awesome

I'm facing problem if I'm going to record with Camera Only mode, after recording complete It's not navigating to video editor screen most time.

To be honest, this was a fair waste of time! I thought it was a good platform in which I could do unlimited screen recording and other awesome tools, but I did have many problems! First, after I started screen sharing it wouldn't let me stop! After tapping the STOP SHARING button about a hundred times I decided that I had to literally uninstall the extension from the web store! Second, it kept saying my camera and microphone were disabled although they were not. I've heard so many good reviews on this...but I can't agree! I wish I could! I'll stick to Screencastify. I'm fairly dissapointed.

Excellent ,Many thanks.

Loving it so far! One question.. is there an option for me to screenshot using this tool as well? And is there a library where I can access all my recorded files, or do I simply save them all on google drive or download them? Thank you for this awesome extension! :)

What a great tool! I have suggestions for some currently missing features that would make this perfect: 1. Zoom in-out while recording 2. Being able to add captions 3. Green screen filter 4. Being able to switch between recording modes (webcam / screen / webcam + screen) while recording

Video trimming function is not working. Probably some bug there. I'm trimming first half of the recorded video. Please fix.

Everything looks good. Only problem I am facing is video progress bar does not work after downloading video though it works on Screenity page.

This is AMAZING. I have spent days trying to find a software that allows me to do live markups and annotations. Just adding the extension didn't work for me, but installing the code locally made it run smoother than butter. Question, is there a way to import custom fonts? I'd like to import a few google fonts to use for the text. Absolutely love this app!

nice app to record in your computer and nice abilities

Great overall... Pretty much would be the best screen recorder even if it was paid. It would be great if it were possible to hide the tools on the bottom left on the actual recording and to be able to resize the camera more.

Great extension. But seek functionality is not working after downloading the video.

I think its good but then coming to the text and the duration its bad try something eles

Its recording video quality is very good

it can't record on apps and i have been looking for 2 hours for an extension that can. i wanted to do a roblox obby video but i can't.

It places a huge blue circle in the top left corner obscuring the screen and spoiling the presentation. Cannot find a way to remove this eyesore. This flaw renders this tool completely useless in creating a tutorial video. Reviewing the video it has actually recorded the eyesore for everyone to see. Why? Makes no sense at all. The concept is good. Just why put a big eyesore that cannot be moved offscreen or hidden just makes no sense. So even if all the rest of the software works well, it just cannot be used for any practical purposes.

it is so easy to use and the video size is good, Thanks for this app

Free extension. Tons of features. Open Source. Excellent Support! I was looking for a screen recorder and found this on product hunt. Pretty good app. Requires no login and option to upload straight to google drive is neat. I had an issue where the app was not recording the desktop. Sent an email to Alyssa and got a response within 1 minute! Thats excellent support for a free plugin! The issue is resolved and you have to check this setting. This will also be improved in future version. http://prntscr.com/yprs8y

The camera and mic does not work when trying to use it. I tried removing and readding it to see if it works.

❤ this.

excellent, I like it :)

It simply doesn't start recording and once I hit stop recording it doesn't perform any action. Moreover I disabled webcam and my webcam LED light is indicating entire time the webcam is active. Uninstalling after 10minutes

It wont let me mute my mic and is very laggy
