The screen recorder that zooms in for you.

Screenix for Chrome zooms in on every click and glides along with your cursor, so viewers always see the button you pressed. Keep the automatic zooms, or fine-tune each one on the timeline.

The short answer

Click, and the camera follows.

Updated October 2026

  • Every click creates a zoom from 600 ms before it to about 2 seconds after, and nearby clicks merge into one smooth move.
  • While zoomed, the view pans with a spring when your cursor leaves the visible area, so it never jumps.
  • In Instant mode the zooms are rendered while you record. In Studio mode they sit on a timeline you can edit.
  • Each zoom goes from 1× to 4× with 0.1 to 2 second transitions, in Auto (follows the cursor) or Manual (fixed area) mode.

How it works

Zooms built from your clicks, not guessed from pixels

Screenix records the page and your mouse separately. Because it knows exactly where and when you clicked, it can plan the zooms before drawing a single frame: zoom in just ahead of the click, hold while you work in that area, and ease out when you move on.

The camera works like the Screenix desktop editor. The visible area is split into zones half its size, and the view only pans when the cursor leaves the current zone. That keeps the picture calm while you type or hover, and moves it only when something new happens.

Instant or Studio

Live zooms, or zooms you can direct

Turn on Zoom on clicks in Instant mode and the zoom happens as you record. It starts about half a second before each click and lands on it, then holds and eases back out. When you press stop, the MP4 is already finished.

In Studio mode the zooms appear as clips in a lane on the timeline. Drag them, trim them, change their scale or transition, switch a zoom to Manual to frame a fixed area, or add a new one at the playhead. Projects opened from Instant mode keep their zooms.

  • Zoom the whole frame, or keep the frame fixed and zoom only the page inside it
  • The cursor stays sharp at every zoom level because it is drawn, not scaled
  • Crop first, and zooms follow the cropped area

In the browser

Why a tab recorder is the best place for auto zoom

Desktop apps with auto zoom, such as Screen Studio, are Mac-only or tied to one operating system. A Chrome extension works the same in Chrome on Windows, macOS and Linux, and most product demos happen in a browser anyway.

Screenix records the tab in front of you and follows you to other tabs in the same window, so a full walkthrough across several pages still zooms on every click. It doesn't record your desktop or other apps.

What you get

Every detail of a good demo,
handled for you.

Auto zoom

Zooms that follow your clicks

Screenix zooms in on every click and pans with the cursor, so viewers see what you did without squinting. Keep the automatic zooms or move, resize and add your own on the timeline.

The cursor, rebuilt

A cursor that looks animated by hand

Screenix records the page without your system cursor, then draws a crisp macOS-style one in its place, with spring smoothing, click bumps, motion blur and a soft fade when you stop moving. Seven cursor themes, all adjustable.

Add to Chrome

Follows your tabs

Switch tabs and the recording comes with you

Open a link, jump to another tab or reload the page. Screenix keeps recording whichever tab is in front in the same window, so a whole flow fits in one take.

From stop to sent

Send a link instead of a file

With a Screenix yearly or team plan, upload from the editor and copy the link. Viewers watch in any browser and can leave timestamped comments. Without one, export MP4 or WebM up to 4K, free.

Add to Chrome

Know before you install

Tabs only,
and it follows you between them.

Screenix for Chrome records the tab in front of you, so it can draw a perfect cursor over pure page pixels.

Records browser tabs

Screenix captures the page in the tab you're on, at full quality, without your system cursor.

Follows you between tabs

Switch tabs, open links or reload in the same window and the recording keeps going in one take.

Tab audio from the first tab

Your mic and camera record throughout. Page sound comes from the tab you started on.

Not your whole screen

It doesn't capture your desktop, other apps or other windows. On Linux, the Screenix desktop app does.
