Screen Story

What is Screen Story?

Screen Story is a screen recording tool for Mac that produces polished video demos, GIFs, and social media stories without requiring video editing experience. It automatically zooms in on your actions and smooths cursor movements, so raw recordings come out looking finished.

Key features:

• Automatic zoom and smooth cursor effects on anything you record
• Video and GIF export (GIF, MP4) supporting 60 FPS and 4K resolution
• Background customization to match your brand guidelines
• Selfie camera recording with animations, adjustable so it doesn’t block the cursor
• Motion blur, cursor settings, and support for external recording devices
• Trimming and splitting clips
• A built-in teleprompter for reading notes while recording
• Cloud sharing links and clipboard copying for quick sharing
• Project master files for later editing and repurposing
• AI captions, multi-camera layouts, and mobile app recording
