Auto zoom for screen recordings

Drop a screen recording. Vidova finds the mouse cursor on every frame and reads each click. The video zooms in on the clicks and follows the cursor, and you download it as an MP4.

Drop a screen recording

Up to 10 seconds without signing in: longer files are cut to their first 10 seconds on your device. Signed in, up to 10 minutes.

How to add automatic zoom to a screen recording

  1. Add your recording

    Drop a screen recording in the box above: a tutorial, a product demo or a walkthrough. Without signing in, Vidova zooms the first 10 seconds.

  2. Wait for the cursor

    Cursor tracking finds the cursor on every frame and reads where it clicks. It takes the cursor out of the picture, and Vidova draws a smooth cursor in its place.

  3. Watch the zooms

    The video zooms in to 1.8 times on each click, from just before it until just after it. Clicks close together share one zoom, and each zoom follows the cursor.

  4. Download or edit

    Download the MP4, or open the recording in the Vidova editor to change the zooms, the cursor style or the background.

Frequently asked questions

Is auto zoom free?

Yes. Without signing in you can zoom the first 10 seconds of a recording 2 times a day, and the video has the Vidova mark. With a Vidova account, a recording can be up to 10 minutes long and uses the credits of your plan.

Which recordings does it work on?

Screen recordings of a computer with the mouse cursor in the picture, from any recorder: QuickTime, OBS, Loom, Zoom or the recorder in Windows. A phone recording has no cursor, so it has nothing to follow.

Where does it zoom?

On the clicks. A click is a place on the screen that changes under a cursor at rest. Vidova zooms on the clicks it is sure of first. A recording with no click gets no zoom.

Can I change the zooms?

Yes. Open the recording in the editor and ask the agent to move, lengthen or remove a zoom, or to zoom in on another moment.

Is my video uploaded?

Yes. Cursor tracking runs in the cloud, so the video is uploaded. A video uploaded without signing in is deleted a day later.
