Frequently Asked Questions

Are my photos or videos uploaded to a server?
No. Everything happens in your browser. Your camera feed, photos, and recordings never leave your device.
Why do I need to allow camera and microphone access?
Your browser requires permission to use your webcam and microphone. This tool only accesses them while the page is open and you have started the camera.
Which browsers are supported?
Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge on desktop and mobile. Downloaded video format may vary by browser — most save as WebM; Safari may use MP4.
Can I choose which camera or microphone to use?
Yes. Click Allow device access first so your browser can list devices by name, then pick a camera and microphone from the dropdowns before you start recording.
