Mac only?
Many of the apps are macOS only unfortunately. For Windows, there's Descript or Camtasia. Linux not sure, but Descript and Veed are browser-based.
I chuckled when you said you weren't sure about Linux tools. Real Linux users code all their sleek demo videos inside emacs in hex.

Unfortunately this is one of the places where Linux really doesn't have any good options. While there are definitely raw capture options for Linux, there isn't anything as nice as Screen Studio or Screen Flow or Camtasia for quick, short videos with basic editing.

Screen.studio can also record your iPhone’s screen if you connect it to your Mac with a cable.

#86Arcade looks genuinely great, so thanks for posting this question. Several folks have already mentioned that the real value of screen capture tools is to create assets that can be used by a person whose job it is to explain abstract concepts to an audience. I would go so far as to say that if you're a founder, hiring someone who is really good at product videos is something you should 100% outsource even if you're ta…
Btw for Arcade - you can implement agent chats with our Intercom integration: https://app.arcade.software/share/B0jj3mbbJOWUrWvmzY2a?ref=s...

#88Sorry to be that person but are there any free/OSS alternatives to the ones mentioned here? Mainly for macOS?
I'm linux-only so can't say for macos, but I use OBS to record and Kdenlive[1] to edit. It will take a bit more effort to get some of the effects like the zoom as Kdenlive is full video editing software, but it's a skill that IMHO is well worth the 45 mins to an hour it takes to get comfortable.

With which of these 2 software can you do the "zoom in", "move mouse cursor", and "zoom out"?
It's done in two steps, first use loom to record the mouse movement in much higher res than needed and then use resolve to zoom, follow and frame as needed.
> to record the mouse movement in much higher res than needed
how can this be done? if the monitor resolution is say 1600 x 900, how can it record the frames and/or mouse movement in higher resolution than this?

#90ScreenStudio and Arcade are great. If you're looking for an in-product demo/tour, there's driver.js
