Customization Options for the Perfect Video
Our tool offers several settings to give you full control over the final output:
- Resolution: Choose from various resolutions, from mobile to 4K, to simulate different devices.
- Format: Download your recording as a high-quality MP4 video or an optimized, web-friendly GIF.
- Scroll Distance & Delay: Control the speed of the scroll to make it faster or slower, depending on the content.
- Initial Delay: Add a delay at the start of the recording to allow for animations or popups to load.
- Ad & Cookie Blocking: Automatically block most ads and cookie banners for a cleaner recording.
Pro Tips for Professional-Quality Recordings
- Choose the Right Format: Use MP4 for high-quality presentations and social media. Use GIF for embedding in emails, tutorials, or websites where a smaller file size is important.
- Match Resolution to Your Audience: If you're demonstrating a mobile feature, use a mobile resolution.
- Adjust Scroll Speed: For text-heavy pages, a slower scroll speed is better for readability. For visually-driven pages, a faster scroll can feel more dynamic.
- Use the Delay: If the website has a loading animation or a popup that appears after a few seconds, use the initial delay setting to ensure it's captured correctly.
