Why Linux Users Choose Screenix Over Kooha

Three reasons developers and creators choose Screenix

Automatic Zoom Effects

Kooha records the selected source without a zoom timeline. Screenix records your clicks, generates smooth zooms in its editor, and lets you refine or remove them before export.

Cursor Tracking & Camera Overlay

Kooha can include the standard pointer but does not reconstruct or style it, and it has no webcam overlay. Screenix adds cursor styling, click effects, and camera layouts in the editor.

Professional Results Without Post-Processing

Kooha leaves zooms and timeline edits to another application. Screenix keeps capture, generated zooms, cursor styling, camera layouts, and export in one workflow.

Built for Linux

Screenix runs natively on Ubuntu, Fedora, Debian, Arch, Manjaro, Linux Mint, and CachyOS, no Wine, no workarounds, just native performance.
