Email Recordings

Screen Recorder
for Email

Replace long email threads with a quick screen recording. Record your screen, share a link, and let the recipient watch on their own time. Auto-zoom keeps everything readable even in small email previews.

How to Share Recordings via Email

Most email clients don't support inline video. Here are the approaches that actually work.

Share via link

The most reliable approach. Paste a link to your recording in the email body. Works with every email client, no file size worries, and recipients click to watch instantly.

Recommended

Thumbnail + link

Take a screenshot of your recording, embed it in the email as an image, and hyperlink it to the video. This gives recipients a visual preview that encourages clicks.

Recommended

GIF preview + link

Export a short GIF of the key moment and embed it in your email. Link the GIF to the full recording. Great for sales outreach and marketing emails.

Why Auto-Zoom Matters for Email

Email thumbnails are small. Auto-zoom ensures your recordings are clear without the recipient going fullscreen.

Readable in email previews

Email clients show video thumbnails at small sizes. Auto-zoom ensures the important part of your screen is front and center in that tiny preview.

No need to go fullscreen

Recipients often watch recordings inline or in a small window. With auto-zoom, they can follow your actions without expanding to fullscreen.

Professional appearance

Click highlights and smooth zoom transitions make your recordings look polished — important when emailing clients, prospects, or executives.

Works on mobile email

Many emails are opened on phones. Auto-zoom means your screen recording is watchable even on a small mobile screen.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I embed a video directly in an email?

Most email clients (Gmail, Outlook, Apple Mail) don't support embedded video playback. The reliable approach is to share a link or use a thumbnail image linked to your recording.

Is there a file size limit for email recordings?

When you share via link, there's no file size limit because the video isn't attached to the email. The recipient clicks the link and watches in their browser.

How does auto-zoom help with email recordings?

Email video thumbnails are small. Auto-zoom enlarges the area around your clicks, so the key action is visible even in a tiny preview without going fullscreen.

Can I record a video reply to an email?

Yes. Record your screen showing the email or relevant content, narrate your response, and paste the link in your reply. Much faster than typing a long explanation.
