1. What is Screen Script?
Screen Script is an easy-to-use screen recorder and editor that helps you create professional product demo videos, tutorials, and walkthroughs — all from your browser.
You can record your screen, camera, and microphone, then instantly edit the video (trim clips, add zoom effects, and export in high quality).
You can get started anytime at https://screenscript.app.
2. How do I create my first project in Screen Script?
To create a new project, visit the Launcher or click “Create Product Demo” on the homepage. If you’re not logged in, you’ll be prompted to sign in. Once inside, click “New Project”, name your project, and it will appear in your project list. From there, click Record to open the recorder.

3. Can I record without signing in?
No. You need to sign in to create or record a project in Screen Script. This ensures your projects are securely saved and accessible from your account.
4. What can I record using Screen Script?
You can record:
- Your screen (required)
- Your camera (optional)
- Your microphone (optional)
You can enable or disable each option with a simple switch before starting your recording.
5. Do I need to allow permissions every time I record?
For camera and microphone, you only need to allow access once if you enable "Allow always" or "Allow while visiting the site.".
For screen recording, permissions must be granted every time, as browsers require you to select the screen, window, or tab for each recording session.
6. How do I trim my video in Screen Script?
Open your project in the Editor, select Project from the Layers panel, and adjust the Start Trim and End Trim values in Project Settings. These don’t cut the video inside the editor but mark the sections to be removed during export.
7. What is the Zoom Effect, and how do I use it?
The Zoom Effect allows you to focus on specific parts of your screen for emphasis. To add one, select Zoom Layer from the Layers panel and click the Zoom icon above the timeline. You can move or resize it later for better focus.
8. How do I export my video?
After editing, click Export (top right). You can choose a preset or custom resolution based on your project’s aspect ratio. Advanced users can adjust the Batch Size for performance tuning — higher values export faster but use more resources.
9. What is Batch Size in export settings?
Batch Size controls how many frames are processed at once during export.
Larger batch sizes = faster rendering, more CPU/memory usage.
Smaller batch sizes = slower but safer on lower-end devices. Screen Script automatically sets a safe default value for your system.
10. Can I switch tabs while exporting my video?
No. Because rendering is CPU-intensive, switching to another tab may cause your browser to pause or throttle Screen Script, resulting in errors or corrupted exports. Keep the export tab open until it’s fully done.
11. Are my projects automatically saved?
No. Screen Script does not automatically save changes. You can click Save anytime during editing to manually save your progress. Also, Screen Script automatically saves changes when you click Export.
12. Where are my videos stored?
All your projects and recordings are stored securely in your browser itself. .
