ScreenBuddy Reviews

ScreenBuddy Description

ScreenBuddy combines screen recording and video editing functionalities within a single desktop application, compatible with macOS 12+ (both Apple Silicon and Intel) and Windows 10+ 64-bit systems.

The application captures the click track, which drives an innovative zoom feature that generates zoom movements automatically, ranging from 1.25x to 5x, with smooth interpolation rather than manual placement. Each zoom effect is placed on the timeline as an editable object, allowing for easy retiming, rescaling, or removal without the need for keyframing.

Additional features include spotlight and lightbox focus effects, a 3D camera with orbit capabilities and depth of field, a three.js MacBook device frame, 18 backdrops with the option for custom images, seven different aspect ratios, timeline annotations, a webcam overlay that minimizes during zoom, local AI-generated captions, and functions for cropping and trimming. Exports can be saved as MP4 or GIF files, maintaining up to the original source resolution.

All recordings and edits are stored locally on the device; however, internet access is necessary for license activation and to check for updates.

The software is available for a one-time payment of 29.99 USD until August 15, 2026, after which the price will rise to 49 USD. There are no subscription fees, and all future updates are included with the purchase. Furthermore, this model ensures users have access to the latest features without ongoing costs.
