Review Summary
Users generally praise REC for its high-quality video recording, simplicity, and 4K support, making it suitable for Chromebook users and those needing a free screen recorder. However, recurring issues include failed downloads without recovery options, inaccurate area selection during recording, inconsistent audio quality, and occasional performance lags causing system freezes. Users also desire more features like keyboard shortcuts and video settings. Despite some drawbacks, many find it superior to built-in recorders and recommend it for straightforward screen capture needs.
