Chromebook Recording Methods

  • Method 1: Built-in Tools

    Chrome OS includes a basic screen recorder (Quick Settings > Screen record). However, it has limitations in audio quality and sharing options.

  • Method 2: Web-Based Solutions (Recommended)

    ShotVu provides professional-grade recording directly in your browser. No downloads, unlimited recording length, and instant sharing make it the ideal choice for content creators.

  • Method 3: Professional Software

    Desktop applications like Camtasia or ScreenFlow offer advanced editing but require significant investment and learning curve. ShotVu provides similar quality with zero setup time.
