Up to 5 minutes. When you stop, we make the link — nothing to sign up for.

How to record your screen in three steps

  1. 1

    Choose what to share

    Pick Screen + Cam to record your screen with a camera bubble, Screen for just the screen, or Cam for a quick talking-head clip. Your browser asks which window, tab or display to share.

  2. 2

    Record and talk it through

    Press record and walk through whatever you are explaining. Your microphone is captured so you can narrate, and the camera bubble keeps a face on the explanation.

  3. 3

    Share the short link

    Stop recording and picd.in turns it into a short link you can paste into chat, an email or a ticket. It plays in any browser — no account needed to record or to watch.

A screen recorder without the setup

  • No account, no install

    Open the page and record. Nothing to sign up for and nothing to download — it all happens in your browser.

  • Screen and webcam together

    Your camera rides along in a circular bubble, composited straight into the video so it travels with the file.

  • Voice and screen audio

    Narrate with your microphone, and in Chrome and Edge the audio from the screen you share is mixed in too.

  • One short link

    Every recording becomes a tidy picd.in link that opens anywhere, exactly like the images people share here.

  • Unlisted by default

    Your link is not listed anywhere. Only reviewed, captioned media ever shows up in Explore or in search results.

  • Cleans up after itself

    Recordings stick around for a year of inactivity and are then deleted automatically. No dashboard to tidy up.

Frequently asked questions

Is the picd.in screen recorder free?

Yes. Recording your screen and webcam on picd.in is completely free, and you do not need an account.

Do I need to install anything?

No. The recorder runs entirely in your browser using the standard screen capture and media recording APIs. There is nothing to download or install.

Does it record audio?

Yes. Your microphone is recorded so you can narrate. In Chrome and Edge the audio from the screen or tab you share is mixed in as well.

Can I record only my screen, or only my camera?

Yes. Choose Screen + Cam for a screen recording with a camera bubble, Screen for the screen on its own, or Cam to record just your camera.

Which browsers are supported?

Chrome and Edge on desktop give the best results, including audio from the shared screen. Firefox works too. Screen recording needs a desktop browser; on a phone you can still record your camera.

How long can a recording be?

Up to 5 minutes per recording, which keeps the file small enough to upload and share quickly.

Where is my recording stored, and for how long?

It is stored on picd.in and reachable through the short link you get when you stop recording. Recordings are kept for a year of inactivity and then deleted automatically.

Is my recording public?

Your link is unlisted — only people you send it to can open it. Recordings are not listed in Explore or search engines unless they have been reviewed and captioned.
