The full workflow

Record the app. Shape the story. Export the asset.

Record, edit, highlight, style, and export in one Mac app.

Record from any source

Start from what you have: a Mac window, a screen area, an iPhone over USB, or a Simulator session. Add webcam, mic, system audio, and keystrokes only when you need them.

Trim and fix in minutes

Cut mistakes, split long clips, reorder scenes, and skip the slow parts. No video skills needed. Everything auto-saves inside one .smoothcapture file.

Add 3D device frames

Rotate device frames and adjust perspective.

Highlight important moments

Zoom, cut, and reframe so each step is easy to follow.

Export in any format

Save as MP4, MOV, GIF, or transparent ProRes. Pick the size, then save locally, grab a share link, or publish straight to Cloudflare R2 or AWS S3.

Capture

Capture Mac, mobile, and Simulator.

Record your screen, a window, a selected area, an iPhone, an iPad, or the iOS Simulator.

Mac screen, window, or area

Pick the full display, a single app window, or a selected area so you start with a clean source and skip cropping later.

Edit

Edit the parts that matter.

Trim mistakes, combine takes, speed up slow parts, and keep your project organized.

Trim, split, and reorder

Cut mistakes, break long clips into parts, and move scenes around without switching apps.

Combine multiple takes

Import another raw video, pick the best moments, and build the final cut.

Control the pacing

Speed through slow parts, keep the key moments at normal speed, and shape the rhythm on the timeline.

Pick up where you left off

Auto-save, recent projects, and thumbnails make it easy to step away and come back.

Attention

Make each step easy to follow.

Use zooms, cursor effects, keystrokes, and annotations to explain the interaction clearly.

Smart and manual zoom

Zoom in on the action. Let Smooth Capture auto-add zooms, or place and tune each one yourself on the timeline.

Presentation

Make raw recordings look polished.

Add device frames, backgrounds, webcam layouts, and the right size for each channel.

2D and 3D device frames

Drop your recording into a 2D frame or a real 3D iPhone, iPad, or MacBook model with lighting, reflections, and depth.

Backgrounds and canvas

Pick from built-in backgrounds, solid colors, gradients, or your own images. Tweak padding, corners, and zoom in the same take.

Sizes for every channel

Switch between landscape, portrait, square, and App Store formats. One project feeds your site, social, and store.

Webcam layouts

Place the camera as overlay, fullscreen, or side-by-side. Pick shape, border, shadow, and position, then reframe anytime.

Narration and clarity

Add audio and captions.

Mix mic and system audio, add music, and edit captions before export.

Mix audio in the project

Balance mic and system audio, mute sources, add overlay tracks, and change volume or speed without another tool.

Edit captions like text

Generate subtitles with Apple Speech or FluidAudio, pick the language, open the transcript editor, search, and fix lines before export.

Export and share

Export the format you need.

Export MP4, MOV, GIF, or transparent ProRes. Save locally or share a link.

High-quality video

Export MP4 or MOV with full control over resolution, frame rate, bitrate, and codec, up to 4K.

Transparent exports

Use ProRes 4444 to export a transparent background for website heroes, promos, or motion design.

GIFs and web assets

Make lightweight GIFs and web assets with control over size, frame rate, duration, and loop, perfect for docs and release notes.

Save, share, or publish

Save a file, grab a share link, or publish straight to Cloudflare R2 or AWS S3 with progress and a public URL.
