Works well. One minor suggestion: when accessing Previous Recordings or Screenshots, the icons for Location folder, Edit, etc., could benefit from text tooltips that appear on hover. For better user understanding.

Downloaded it as an alternative to Loom as I liked the rounded square camera. - Crashed 4 times when I pressed record, on a new macbook pro. - Then when it did finally record, the camera didn't overlay on top when I swiped/switched between apps in fullscreen. - Then when I finally got it to work, despite it being in rounded-square camera view, the video rendered and my camera was a circle, not the rounded-square view. Tried multiple times and same result, how is it recording a circle-view camera that isn't even displayed on my screen at time of recording? Regardless, back to Loom I go. Utter waste of time.

hey Sam! We're in early beta - would love for you to have sent this feedback to us so we could address the bugs and get a fix out. Would have happily given you a free year of Cap Pro as a thank you. We ship new updates multiple times a day and love working with our users to fix things. We're a small team of 4, up against a billion $ corporation.

Cap is a local first recorder. By default, unlike Loom, we record your screen and webcam separate so you can go into our powerful editor and adjust things like webcam styling, backgrounds, gradients, padding, rounded corners etc. Lots of easy fixes/quick wins etc.
