The next step is to choose the area on your screen you want to capture. You can drag the red cross to customize the recording area, or you can click the triangle icon in the upper left corner of the window to choose the computer size or mobile size. To make a TikTok video, we recommend you choose the Mobile size.  Videos of this size are more suitable for viewing on mobile phones.

Step 5: Pause & Stop the recording

During the video recording, you can pause it by clicking the blue button. If you want to finish it, you can click on the red button. The recorded video will be saved in the recording list, so you don’t need to save the video manually.

Step 6: Rewatch & Edit the recorded video

Then, you can easily find your recorded video on the list. RecMaster enables you to play, rename, edit, delete, and share the recordings. Changing the name of a video can help you find it faster in the future. If you want to open the saving folder, you can click on the folder icon to locate it.
