The recording controls appear in the bottom corner of your screen whenever you make a Screen or Screen + Cam video with the browser extension or desktop app. The controls allow you to:
- Start, pause, resume and restart a recording
- Use the drawing tool to doodle on your screen (extension only)
- Use Video Notes to write down talking points and helpful reminders (extension only)
If you prefer a cleaner looking recording without the controls, update your recording preferences to hide the controls.
