Record video with your webcam.
Free, no sign-up.

Record yourself with the camera and microphone, right in the browser — then share it with a link or download it.

Up to 30 minutes. Nothing is uploaded until you tap Get link.

How it works

  1. Allow the camera

    Tap Start recording and allow the camera and the microphone when the browser asks.

  2. Record

    You see yourself in the preview. Recording starts after 3, 2, 1; tap Stop when you are done.

  3. Share or save

    Play it back, then tap Get link to upload it and share the link, or Download to keep it.

On a computer or a phone

It works with the camera built into a laptop, a USB webcam, and the front camera of a phone or a tablet.

Nothing is uploaded until you choose

The video is recorded in your browser. It goes to BasePic only when you tap Get link; Download saves it straight to your device.

WebM or MP4

Chrome, Edge and Firefox save the video as WebM, Safari as MP4. For a WebM video BasePic also makes an MP4 copy, so the link plays on an iPhone too. To get an MP4 file (up to 15 minutes at 1080p or higher, longer at a lower resolution), tap Edit video on the uploaded video, then Convert to MP4.

Record your screen instead

On a computer, tap Screen to record a tab, a window or your entire screen — with your voice.

Webcam recorder: questions

How do I record a video with my webcam?

Tap Start recording, allow the camera and the microphone, and tap Stop when you are done. Then tap Get link or Download.

Does it work on iPhone and Android?

Yes. It records with the front camera in Safari and Chrome on phones and tablets.

How long can a video be?

Up to 30 minutes. The recording stops by itself at the limit.

Is there a watermark?

No. No watermark, no sign-up and no fee.

Why can’t the browser use my camera?

Check that no other app (a video call, the camera app) is using it, and that the browser may use the camera — the camera icon in the address bar. Then tap Start recording again.

Can I trim the video?

Yes. After Get link, tap Edit video on the uploaded video to trim the start and the end, crop it or add subtitles.
