Choose Screen or Tab

IPPO extension recorder with Screen selected, a Tab option, Start and Open side panel controls.

Source UI example: the connected Chrome extension, ready to record. Choose Screen or Tab, then Start. Screen opens the browser source chooser; Tab records the active tab.

Define one outcome, prepare safe example data, and close unrelated windows. Use consistent zoom and a readable resolution. Start from a recognisable screen and avoid including passwords or private messages.

Example with sample data

Example: use a fictitious “Demo customer” record with example.com addresses, and record only the task you want the reader to repeat.

Move through the task deliberately. Let menus and pages finish loading before the next action. Avoid unnecessary navigation and repeated clicks.

After generation, follow the guide as a new user would. Replace vague descriptions with the exact action and expected outcome. Check that each screenshot shows the relevant state and that redaction remains visible in the exported result.

Important

Stopping a recording alone does not upload it. Complete Save capture or the chosen import confirmation and wait for the result.
