Screen Recorder by Omi for PC and Mac

Software Reviews and Criticism

  Very good when it works.

  I'm going to start with the good things about this app. It is very user-friendly, simple, and straightforward to use. It is an excellent solution for working with internal audio. But after using the app for a bit I discovered a few significant problems. 1. While watching back recordings it seemed a little fuzzy and not fully clear like when you record on QuickTime. When it's side by side you can tell the difference. 2. Sometimes the recording would not save. It used to be 50/50 when I clicked the stop recording button, no file would come up or trace what I recorded. This can get annoying and most commonly happened with recordings over 15 minutes. Again I know I recorded properly, just no file showed up. I checked the Omni and video folders nothing there. 3. One final issue the audio driver would sometimes not work. When recording and having all of the audio settings correct the internal audio from the driver would not work. I do not know why but this happened quite frequently. Other than those issues I like this app a lot and would recommend.

  Amazing Value

  I was a Capto user for years and lately started having issues with it recognizing that "Screen Recording" was allowed. I went through their support which was responsive but sadly they were unable to make it work. I stumbled onto this App and I am super glad that I did. It doesn't have some of the bells and whistles that Capto has in terms of editing and layering after creating the video but those are rarely used anyway. Additionally, this app is free. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a straight forward screen recorder that can record anything and JUST WORKS! Great job!!

  Excellenct. Just works

  I'm on new M1x architecture, and OBS has given me problems. This just works very well, and has a great intuitive UI and shortcut config. I'd pay for this or support it if I could. But dev, if you choose to make this a paid app, please make it a one time purchase and not monthly sub. I, and probably many others, have shiedaway from apps like Loom precisely because of this model. I'd rather pay $150 one time than 10/month. If you gave the option to donate, support, or sponsor through github, I would do that as well.

  Fantastic

  I love this program. Does exactly what I need it to do. I would absolutely support an extra app purchase or pro mode. One thing I wish it would do is give me an option in preferences to have it automatically quit completely once it had created a video. This would be great for security peace of mind so I know in my paranoid head that something that can record the screen in not on all the time in the task bar. I don't mind starting it from the dock each time I need it. THX again

  Exactly what I wanted

  So I used Movavi for years, but it recently started giving an error message and ceased to work. Then I spent three days searching online, posting requests in social media, etc. looking for a simple, words every time, screen recorder. I tried several. All were either very expensive or simply had too many controls for easy use. Then I stumbled on this application. Easy install, works great, and so simple to use. Outstanding!
