Show every click. Highlight the cursor, automatically.
Viewers lose track of a small cursor fast. Zoomingscreen makes it easy to follow: a ring or pulse on every click, an optional spotlight, trail or halo, and a zoom toward each click.
Cursor effects
- Click effect: a ring or a pulse on every click, with right clicks in a second color
- Spotlight: dims the rest of the screen around the cursor
- Trail: a short line that follows the cursor as it moves
- Halo: a soft circle around the cursor when the view is zoomed out
- Effects for the whole video, or only for one part of it
A cursor that looks good on video
In the Chrome extension you pick the cursor before you record: a dark arrow, a light arrow, a pointer, a dot, or your usual cursor. In the desktop app, when the system cursor can be left out of the capture, Zoomingscreen draws a smooth cursor you can restyle and resize afterwards.

Questions.
How do I highlight my cursor when screen recording?
In Zoomingscreen, open the Cursor panel in the editor and turn on a click effect, spotlight, trail or halo. They are added to the finished video, so you can change them any time before you export.
Can I show mouse clicks in a screen recording?
Yes. Every click gets a ring or a pulse, and the video zooms toward it, so viewers always see what you pressed.
Can I make the cursor bigger?
In the desktop app, when the cursor is drawn by Zoomingscreen, you can change its size and style after recording. In the Chrome extension, the cursor is picked before recording and a zoom makes it bigger on screen.
