Create Screencasts and Videos with Video Capture Software TinyTake

May 28, 2015

Communication in the online world is rapidly moving from text based content to more interactive content such as screencasts and videos. However, most video recording software tools are either too pricey or offer limited features in the free version. TinyTake is a Windows utility that lets you capture cool screenshots or videos for up to 120 minutes (if you fulfill certain conditions), annotate and share them with others. In this week’s app review, we take a look at the free screen capture and video recording tool TinyTake.

You will receive your login details via email and once you input the data, you will be asked to set up your own password. Once that’s out of the way, you can get to the My TinyTakes Uploads dashboard where you can start recording your screen and video captures.

Final Thoughts

TinyTake has plenty of great features and it is definitely one of the better free tools I have seen for capturing screenshots and doing video captures. There are no purchase options though, which means you must get people to sign up if you want more storage or video capture times.
