Double-tap Control

Recording starts instantly. A floating pill appears with a live timer. No menus, no setup, no dialogs.


Features

No timeline.
No editing app.
Just record and go.

Speed ramping

Idle moments speed up 4–8x. Active parts stay normal. A 30s recording becomes a tight clip automatically.

🔍

Auto zoom on clicks

Each click triggers a smooth zoom-in with spring physics. Camera pans between click positions cinematically.

🖱

Cursor + click rings

Real macOS cursor rendered with perfect sync. Expanding ring highlights every click so viewers can follow along.

👻

Invisible until needed

No dock icon, no window. Lives in your menu bar. Double-tap Control to record, double-tap to stop.

📋

Clipboard ready

Finished video saves to your clipboard. A preview HUD appears in the corner — click to open or share.

🔊

Audio feedback

Synthesized start/stop tones and a floating recording pill with live timer so you always know the state.
