Screenix

Roadmap

What I'm working on and what's coming next. I build Screenix alone so I move one feature at a time, but I ship consistently.

Built-in video backgrounds

Shipped

Beautiful preset backgrounds behind your recordings, like gradient meshes and abstract shapes. No need for a green screen or external tools.

More cursor themes

Shipped

Added 21 additional cursor themes to choose from, including new pointer, hand, text, and touch styles.

Camera customization

Planned

More control over the camera overlay: shape, border, shadow, corner radius, and position presets.

External audio support

Planned

Import and edit audio tracks in the editor. Add background music, voiceovers, or sound effects to your recordings.

Publish to YouTube and cloud

Planned

Export and upload recordings to YouTube, Dropbox, Google Drive, and more in one click. No manual uploads.

Arch Linux support

Shipped

Available on the AUR. Install with yay -S screenix-bin. Tested on KDE Plasma Wayland.

Cleaner zoom modes

Shipped

Zoom mode controls have been simplified and made more intuitive with the new follow zoom effect.

GIF export

Shipped

Export your recordings as GIFs directly from the editor. Useful for quick demos, GitHub READMEs, and sharing on platforms that don't support video well.

Voice transcript

Shipped

Automatically transcribe your voiceover into text using local Whisper models. Fully offline, no data leaves your machine. Useful for generating subtitles or searching through recordings.

Improved floating screen zoom

Shipped

The floating screen effect and zoom have been reworked for a smoother, more polished look. Cleaner zoom transitions and better visual quality overall.

Project browser for easy imports

Shipped

A dedicated Browse tab to find and open existing projects directly from the app. The Open Recording button now shows recent projects in a quick-access popup with video thumbnails.

Click tracking on Wayland

Shipped

Click visualization now works on both X11 and Wayland. Recordings on modern Linux setups can show mouse interactions properly.

Request a feature

If there's something you'd like to see in Screenix, let me know. I read every request and it directly influences what I build next.
