Simple Screen Recorder
View on Chrome Web StoreChrome will indicate if you already have this installed.
Overview
Record. Polish. Ship — all inside Chrome.
Simple Screen Recorder captures any tab, window, or screen and turns it
into a polished, professional-looking video without leaving the browser.
WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT
Most screen recorders give you a raw video file and leave the rest to you.
Simple Screen Recorder includes a built-in timeline editor, automatic
spotlight effects on every click, beautiful backgrounds, and one-click
MP4 export — so you go from recording to ready-to-share in minutes.
WHAT IT DOES
• Record any Chrome tab, window, or full screen
• Auto spotlight — your clicks become smooth zoom-in effects that
highlight exactly what matters
• Built-in timeline editor — trim, adjust spotlight blocks, tweak cursor
overlay, all non-destructive
• Backgrounds & browser frames — gradient or solid-color backgrounds
with a browser chrome frame for clean, professional demos
• Export to MP4 or WebM in one click — processing runs locally,
nothing uploaded
HOW IT WORKS
1. Click the extension icon → Start Recording
2. Choose what to capture (tab, window, or screen)
3. Record naturally — click wherever you want spotlight effects to appear
4. Edit in the built-in editor — trim, reposition effects, pick a background
5. Export to MP4 — ready to share in seconds
