A Windows screen recorder with no watermark and no time limit

Many free screen recorders put a logo on your video or stop you after a few minutes. PointerStudio does neither. Every feature is free today, and the MP4 you export has no watermark.

What you get for free

Record a screen, a window or an area, with a 3, 5 or 10 second countdown and a start and stop shortcut that works from any app.
Record your microphone, then set the volume, fades and loudness in the editor.
Auto zoom that follows your cursor and zooms on your clicks.
Backgrounds, rounded corners, frames and shadows, in the shape you need.
Blur, pixelate or cover private details, and show your keystrokes.
Export an MP4 in 720p, 1080p or 1440p with Draft, Balanced or High quality.

Private by design

Your recordings, projects and exports are saved on your own computer. PointerStudio does not upload them. You can read exactly what the app sends in the privacy policy, and you can turn anonymous usage stats off in Settings.

Works on Windows 10 and 11

Download the installer, run it and start recording. The installer is new and not code-signed yet, so Windows SmartScreen may show a warning the first time: select More info, then Run anyway, and download only from this site or the official GitHub release.
