The camera runs locally in your browser: recordings are not uploaded and stay on your device until you download them.
Mirror the camera preview to make positioning easier. Check the recording settings separately if the direction of text or gestures matters.

Record webcam video and take photos in the browser
Use this tool to record a short webcam video or take a still photo without installing a separate application. Add a countdown and mirrored preview when you need time to get ready.
If the computer has several webcams, choose the needed camera from the device list. After browser permission is granted, device names are refreshed automatically.
The tool supports common browser formats such as WebM for video and PNG or JPEG for photos. Browser support may differ, so the actual saved format is shown in the result.
