Find answers to common questions about Snipclip

We believe everyone should be able to record, edit, and share video online effortlessly.
Snipclip is a suite of video tools. Currently, we have Snipclip Record and Snipclip Convert available but we are working quickly to release others.
Snipclip Record allows you to easily record your screen, camera, or both simultaneously. These recordings can be used for online tutorials, education, showing rather than telling a friend or coworker what is happening on your screen, etc. The best part of the Record tools is that works completely in your browser locally on your machine, meaning there are no downloads, chrome extension installs, or account signups required. It downloads a .webm file
This is the file format the browser uses to natively create recordings. It is a modern video format meaning not every video editing application supports it; however, it is very widely supported in chat apps, YouTube, social media sites, etc.
Since Snipclip is using cutting edge desktop browser features not all of them are available on browsers for mobile phones. The good news is that we are working on a mobile app for both iOS and Android. If you'd like to join the private beta for that when it is released you can sign up here.
For the same reason mobile browsers are not yet supported you might notice not all desktop browsers are supported. We support the latest version of Firefox, Chrome, Edge, and Brave. Of the major browsers Apple's Safari would be the most widely used that does not have the features available for Snipclip to work properly.
Yes! We are working on some features that will end up having to be paid because of cloud costs; however, we want to offer as much as we possibly can for free.
Nope! Just as long as you have the storage avalailable on your computer you can record as long as you'd like.
Also nope! We don't want someone else's logo on our videos so we figure why should we force you to?
