Screen Studio alternative
Polish a screen recording without a Mac app.
Screen Studio is a paid Mac app that records your screen. If you work on Windows or Linux, or you already have the recording, LickingSpoons adds the background, frame and zooms in your browser for free.

When Screen Studio is the better pick
Screen Studio records your screen and cursor itself and zooms where you click while you record. LickingSpoons doesn't record, so it can't follow clicks it never saw. If you're on a Mac and want recording and automatic zooms in one app, Screen Studio is built for exactly that.

Questions
Is there a free Screen Studio alternative for Windows?
LickingSpoons runs in the browser, so it works on Windows. It doesn't record the screen, so pair it with a recorder such as the Snipping Tool or OBS, then add the background, frame and zooms here.
Can it zoom automatically like Screen Studio?
Partly. Suggest zooms finds the moments where the screen changes and proposes zoom blocks, which you can accept, move or delete. Screen Studio follows your clicks while it records, which needs its own recorder.
Does it work on a Mac too?
Yes. It runs in Safari, Chrome, Edge or Firefox on macOS.
Is my recording uploaded?
No. Decoding, rendering and encoding all happen in your browser tab.
