Frequently asked questions

What format is the recorded audio saved in?

Audio is typically saved in WebM (Opus codec) on Chrome/Firefox or MP4/AAC on Safari, depending on your browser. Most audio players and video editors support these formats.

Why is my browser asking for microphone permission?

Browsers require explicit user permission before any website can access your microphone. This is a security feature. The permission is only used while you are actively recording on this page.

Can I record system audio (what is playing on my computer)?

Browser microphone access records input audio only (from your microphone). System audio (music, videos) requires screen sharing with audio or a dedicated screen-capture tool.
