I can’t even get record my screen and it always makes me try deluxe

### 5/5 — ScreenPal — a key partner in multidimensional teaching

*2026-06-17, version 3.0.12*

Combining online educational initiatives and face-to-face interaction with students can take the educational process to a new level of effectiveness from the point of view of the students’ learning challenges, and in my work ScreenPal has become an indispensable partner in the combination. It’s flexibility, power in capturing all dimensions of a communication, and stability produce a very satisfying user experience from my point of view. Congratulations to your developers.

### 5/5 — Best screen recorder yet!

*2026-04-15, version 3.0.12*

This one is the go-to for teachers. Whether you use it free or pay, the ease of use and clarity of videos is fantastic. You have everything you need for basic use at free level, but I wanted extra options for creating instructional videos and being able to create more of them. I found it valuable to have the choice of sharing with or without audio. You can also have a live window of your face, like with Zoom. There are filters and other cool editing tools with the paid version. 
P.S. It was a lifesaver when I forgot to send home picture day fliers with my 7th graders. I created an instructional video to send through Remind.com (parent communication tool at the time) about how to go to the website and order online, including all the payment options, etc. Thankfully most parents got notifications on their phone, some through email, many through both. They were grateful to me for the information. Thank goodness for this technology! Whew! 😰 I would’ve had some unhappy parents otherwise.

### 5/5 — Love this app!

*2026-04-11, version 3.0.12*

It’s easy to use and well priced! Thank you.

### 1/5 — Scam

*2026-04-06, version 3.0.12*

The app charged me 50$ for the annual membership, then after said it didn’t work so I neither got the membership, nor wanted to make this purchase in the first place, especially because I wanted to test if this app could actually screen record if I have my mic on which it looks like that doesn’t even work. And yes despite not getting the membership, that I didn’t actually want to purchase in the first place, it shows on my App store purchases.
