Choose a screen, window, region, or phone

Pick a capture source and understand what is included.

These guides cover the development build shown on this site. Some controls may differ in the published installer. Check your version in Settings and the download notes.

Full screen

Records a display, including windows and notifications that appear on it. Keep sensitive information off that display. On supported Windows builds, cursor-free capture allows Pro Screen to draw an editable pointer.

Window

Select the application in the window setup panel, then start recording. Keep it open and avoid minimizing, resizing, or moving it during the take. Some applications or protected video may produce a black or incomplete capture.

Custom region

Draw the area to record and check its edges. A smaller region captures fewer source pixels; it does not create more detail. Leave enough room for the interaction you want to show.

Android screen mirroring

1. Open Phone and choose Android. USB is the default.
2. Connect a data-capable cable, unlock the phone, enable USB debugging in Android Developer options, and approve the computer on the phone.
3. Start mirroring and wait for a live preview before recording. Use the same receiver control to stop it when finished.
4. For wireless pairing, scan the pairing QR from Android Developer options → Wireless debugging → Pair device with QR code, not the ordinary Camera app. Availability depends on the phone and Android version.

iPhone screen mirroring

Open Phone, choose iPhone/AirPlay, and start the receiver. Connect the phone and PC to the same trusted local network. On iPhone, open Control Center → Screen Mirroring and select the Pro Screen receiver. A QR code does not initiate AirPlay. Wait for a live preview before recording.

Screen or camera?

For connection problems, use the connection checklist. To record the camera image rather than the phone screen, use Phone as camera.
