What is Screen Story?
Screen Story is a screen recording application designed specifically for macOS. It enables users to capture their screen activity, including specific windows or the entire screen, along with webcam and microphone input. The tool automatically enhances recordings by adding smooth zooming effects on actions and refining cursor movements for a polished look. This allows users to create professional-looking videos without requiring extensive video editing expertise.
The application provides various customization options, such as different backgrounds, window frames, and cursor settings.
