The fastest, simplest way to record a tab.

Open the popup, hit Record — done. Tab video & audio straight to MP4 or WebM, no account, no watermark. Crash-proof by design, and the only recorder that captures several tabs at once.

Free forever · No signup · Recordings stay on your device

Why Tab Recorder

Frictionless on the surface. Bulletproof underneath.

Most screen recorders funnel you into accounts, dashboards and upsell pages — and lose everything if the browser crashes. Tab Recorder does neither.

🎬

Multi-tab recordingOnly here

Record up to 3 tabs simultaneously. Pause one while the others keep rolling, stop each independently — every tab gets its own timer and file.

🛟

Crash-proof by design

Recordings stream to disk as they happen — nothing sits in memory. If Chrome crashes mid-recording, one click recovers everything captured up to that moment.

🎞️

Native MP4 export

Record directly to MP4 (H.264) — plays everywhere, no conversion step, no waiting. Prefer WebM? One toggle.

Two clicks to record

Open the popup, hit Record. Tab audio included, and you keep hearing it. No new tabs, no redirects, no "processing" screens.

🔒

Private by default

No account, no telemetry, no servers. Files save to your Downloads folder. Optionally auto-upload to your own Google Drive — off by default.

⏱️

Smart controls

Resolution presets (source → 480p), pause/resume, and an auto-stop timer you can edit mid-recording by clicking the countdown.

FAQ

Questions, answered

Does it record the tab's audio?

Yes — tab audio is captured alongside video, and you keep hearing it while recording. Microphone mixing is coming to Pro.

What happens if Chrome crashes mid-recording?

Nothing is lost. Tab Recorder streams every second to disk while recording. Next time you open the popup you'll see "Unsaved recording found" — one click saves everything captured up to the crash.

How does multi-tab recording work?

Start recording in one tab, switch to another, hit Record again — up to 3 tabs at once. Each recording has its own timer, pause/stop controls, and output file.

Where are my recordings saved?

Straight to your Downloads folder as TabRecording_date_time.mp4 (or .webm). Optionally, finished recordings can auto-upload to your own Google Drive.

Is this a Loom alternative?

If you want a lightweight tab recorder without accounts, cloud processing, upload waits, or per-video pages — yes. Your recordings are files on your disk, instantly.

How do I activate Pro? Can I use it on several computers?

After checkout you receive a license key by email. In the extension popup: More settings → "Have a license key?" → paste → Activate. One key works on up to 3 of your devices, and you can deactivate a device anytime to free a slot.

Do you collect any data?

No. No analytics, no telemetry, no account. The extension makes zero network requests unless you enable Drive upload or activate a Pro license. See the privacy policy.
