Free forever · No credit card · Works in Chrome, Edge, Brave, Arc, and Opera

The problem

Most recorders make you leave the browser.

When the thing you want to show is a web app, a desktop recorder means extra software, a cluttered full screen, and a separate editor. You end up spending longer cleaning up the video than recording it.

The ScreenBadger editor with a timeline, automatic zooms, and export options.

Why ScreenBadger

What you get

Records the tab, not your desktop

Capture just the tab you’re working in, at 30 or 60 fps for up to 60 minutes, without notifications or other windows getting in the way. Need more? Switch to Entire screen.

Zooms in on your clicks

ScreenBadger turns clicks into smooth camera moves you can edit, so viewers always see the part of the page that matters.

Stays in your browser

Recordings and edits are saved in your browser profile. Nothing is uploaded unless you choose to share a finished video or screenshot with Cloud.
