Recording multiple screens simultaneously can be an effective way to present multiple perspectives or workflows at the same time. With ScreenApp, it's easier than ever to capture more than one screen, making your demonstrations and presentations more versatile. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to do it:

1. Open ScreenApp

Before you start, ensure that you've installed and opened ScreenApp.

2. Start Your First Recording

  • Locate and click the "New Recording" button. This will initiate the process to start capturing your screen content.

3. Share Your First Screen

  • A Chrome selection menu will pop up asking which screen you'd like to share.
  • From the menu, select the first screen you want to record. This could be an entire screen, a particular window, or even a specific tab in your browser, depending on what you're aiming to capture.

4. Initiating Multiple Recordings

While the first recording is in progress:

  • Create a new window or go to a separate tab in Chrome. This action will allow you to set up another recording without interrupting the first one.

5. Start Your Second Recording

  • Once again, click on the "New Recording" button within the new window or tab. This action will prompt ScreenApp to start another recording session.

6. Share Your Second Screen

  • When presented with the share screen option from the Chrome selection menu, select the second screen you want to record.

Note: Make sure you're selecting a different screen, window, or tab than the one you chose for your first recording.

7. Manage Your Recordings

Once you have started multiple recordings, you can easily:

  • Pause: Temporarily stop the recording, which can be resumed later.
  • Stop: End the recording, saving the video file.
  • Review: Watch the recorded video before saving or sharing.

Tips and Tricks

  1. Optimal Performance: To ensure the best performance, close unnecessary tabs and applications. This will ensure ScreenApp can record smoothly and without hiccups.
  2. Organize: Remember to label or organize your recordings afterward, so you can easily differentiate between them, especially if they're of similar content.

ScreenApp's multiple recording feature provides a dynamic way to capture content. Whether it's for a presentation, tutorial, or any other purpose, this function is sure to enhance the way you share and communicate information. Happy recording!
