Chromebooks are a popular device for students and professionals who need to keep their work and school life separate. But what about when you want to take a break? What if you want to watch a movie or listen to music on your Chromebook, but don’t have time to go outside? That’s where the Chromebook screen recorder comes in. The app is available for free on Google Play, and it lets you record video or audio of any length without having to worry about quality. You can also save the recordings as files, so you can access them later on your computer or phone. The app is perfect for when you need to take a break from work or school, but don’t have time to go outside.
Screencast is a new screen recorder for Chrome OS, with more options and features than the built-in recorder that has been available for a while. A camera feed appears at the bottom right corner of the recording, with your face and voice, and you can draw on the screen as you record. When the recording is finished, Screencast transcribes your words into text, and can upload the file to Google Drive for easy sharing.

The new app is mainly intended as a presentation tool for use in schools, but it can come in handy for other use cases too. For example, you could make a recording to show a friend or family member how to do a certain task on their computer, or use it to create a tech guide for publishing to YouTube and other sites.
You can try out Screencast by updating your Chromebook to Chrome OS 103, which is currently rolling out to all (supported) models. You can also just keep using the built-in screen recorder, which is accessible from the quick settings panel.
