Private by design
Your files are opened and processed by your browser on this device. They are never uploaded to openWorkstand or anyone else, so the Screen Recorder is safe for contracts, IDs, photos and work documents, and it keeps working offline once the page has loaded. How local processing works
Good to know
- Screen recording works on desktop browsers; most phones do not allow websites to record the screen.
- Recordings are saved as WebM (or MP4 where the browser supports it).
When to use the Screen Recorder
- Record a tutorial or a product demo.
- Capture a bug to show support.
- Record a presentation with your webcam.
Troubleshooting
The file does not open
Check that it is one of the supported formats above and opens in another app. Damaged files and password-protected PDFs cannot be read until they are repaired or unlocked.
It is slow or stops on a very large file
Everything runs on your device, so speed depends on its memory. Close other tabs, use a computer rather than a phone, or split the file into smaller parts first.
The download did not start
Look for your browser’s download bar or icon. Some browsers ask once before a site may download files; allow it and click the button again.
Frequently asked questions
Does it work on phones?
Phones do not allow websites to record the screen. Use a computer with Chrome, Edge, Firefox or Safari.
Is the recording uploaded?
No. It is recorded in your browser and saved to your device when you download it.
Is it really free?
Yes. There is no sign-up, no watermark, no daily limit and no paid plan. openWorkstand is paid for by a few ads on its public pages.
Keep working with the result
After you download, choose “Save to Workstand” to keep the result in a folder on your computer, attach it to a project and create a follow-up task. It is saved by your browser, not uploaded.
