A screen recorder for PC, built for Windows 10 and 11

Jumpshare is a screen recorder engineered for Windows 10 and 11. It starts fast, records smoothly, and stays reliable without weighing down your PC.

Native Windows app

Built specifically for Windows to deliver a fast, responsive recording experience that feels at home on your PC.

Smooth while you record

Designed to keep CPU and memory usage low, so your computer stays responsive while you capture your screen.

Reliable from start to finish

Finish recording. Share right away.

Uploading starts while the recording is still running. When you finish, most of the upload is already done, so your link is ready far sooner than with a traditional upload.

Fix mistakes without starting the recording over

Trim the parts you do not need, join useful takes together, and choose what viewers see first, all after the recording is finished.

Trim the slow parts

Cut the slow start, awkward ending, or any section that does not belong in the final video.

Questions about screen recording on Windows

Answers to the questions people ask before their first recording.

How do I screen record on Windows 10 with Jumpshare?

Open Jumpshare from the Windows system tray and click Record. Choose Fullscreen, Partial Screen, or Window, select the camera and audio options you want, then press Record to begin. When you finish, the video is uploaded and ready to share by link.

How do I screen record on Windows 11 with Jumpshare?

The steps on Windows 11 are the same as on Windows 10. Open Jumpshare from the system tray, choose Record, select Fullscreen, Partial Screen, or Window, set your webcam and audio, and start recording. Finish the capture and Jumpshare handles the upload so you can share the result online.

What is the best free screen recorder for Windows?

Jumpshare is the best free screen recorder for Windows if you want recording, editing, and sharing to happen in one place. OBS Studio is built for live streaming and requires configuration before your first take. Xbox Game Bar captures one app window at a time and will not record your desktop or File Explorer, let alone add a webcam. Jumpshare captures a display, window, or region with webcam and audio, uploads while you record, and has a shareable link waiting the moment you stop, with no watermark on the free plan.

Can I record just one window or part of my screen?

Yes. Jumpshare can capture one application window or a custom region, so you do not have to show the rest of your desktop.

Can I record my screen and webcam at the same time?

Yes. Add your webcam to the recording, move or resize it, and choose a layout, background, frame, or effect before or during the capture.

Can I record system audio and my microphone?

Yes. Select your microphone, your PC's system audio, or both before you start recording. System audio captures whatever is playing on your computer, so app sounds and videos are included.

Can Jumpshare record in 4K?

Yes. Jumpshare supports recordings up to 4K Ultra HD and up to 60 fps, depending on your plan, selected settings, and PC hardware.

How is this different from Xbox Game Bar?

Xbox Game Bar is built for capturing games. It records one app window at a time, will not capture File Explorer or the desktop, and has no region select, webcam overlay, or drawing tools. Jumpshare records a full display, a window, or any region you drag, lets you add a webcam and annotate while you record, and gives you a link to send instead of a file.

Does Jumpshare work on both Windows 10 and Windows 11?

Yes. The Jumpshare desktop app supports 64-bit Windows 10 and Windows 11.

Will Jumpshare put a watermark on my recording?

No. Jumpshare does not add a Jumpshare watermark to your screen recordings.

What does the free plan include?

The free Basic plan records in HD for up to 5 minutes per video and includes the core sharing tools. Upgrading unlocks 4K recording with no time limit, plus the full editing suite, AI, analytics, branding, and lead capture.
