It takes a minute, and the same account signs you in to the app.
System

Architectures
Apple Silicon and Intel
Version
0.2.0
Installing
5 steps, then you are recording
Open the disk image and drag the app to Applications
Do not run it from the mounted image. Quit any older copy first, then eject the disk once the copy has finished.
Keep it in Applications
macOS ties privacy permissions to where an app lives. Installing to a consistent path means Screen Recording is granted once rather than after every move.
Open it
The first time you open ReScreen, macOS asks whether you want to open an app downloaded from the internet. Click Open; it does not ask again.
Grant Screen Recording
The prompt appears the first time you choose a source. If macOS asks for a relaunch after a permission change, relaunch and refresh the source list.
Sign in with your plan
Recording unlocks while an account has an active plan. Once you have signed in, the app keeps working when you are offline.
Permissions
What it asks for, and exactly why
Every prompt maps to a capability you chose. Decline the optional ones and the app keeps working without them.
Screen Recording
Required
Captures the display, window, application or region you choose.
Input Monitoring
Needed for Smart Zoom
Lets macOS report clicks and drags, which is what the automatic zoom blocks are built from.
Camera
Optional
Only if you record yourself. Built-in, external and Continuity Camera are all supported.
Microphone
Optional
Only if you narrate. System audio is captured separately and needs no extra driver.
A screen recorder for Apple Silicon and Intel Macs
There is one download. It is a universal build that contains native code for Apple Silicon, including M1, M2 and later chips, and for Intel, so you do not choose a version and nothing runs through an emulation layer. The same package installs on either kind of Mac.
A macOS Ventura screen capture app, and what it asks for
ReScreen needs macOS 13 Ventura or later. The first time you record, macOS asks for Screen Recording permission. Camera, Microphone and Input Monitoring are optional and only switch on the features that need them: your camera bubble, your voice and click detection for zooms. If you are choosing a recorder for an older Mac, the best screen recorder for Mac covers the options.
Download FAQ
Before you download
Which Macs can run it?
macOS 13 Ventura or later, on Apple Silicon and Intel. The package is universal, so the same download installs the native build for either architecture.
macOS asks whether I want to open ReScreen. Is that normal?
Yes. The first time you open ReScreen, macOS asks whether you want to open an app downloaded from the internet. Click Open; it does not ask again. If you see any other warning instead, download the app again from this page rather than from a copy someone sent you.
Where do my recordings end up?
In a folder inside ~/Movies by default, as one folder per project. You can change the location in Settings → General; changing it never moves or removes recordings you already made.
Do I need anything else installed?
No. There is no Xcode, Node.js or runtime dependency, and no background service is installed alongside the app.
