Webcam Screen Recorder for Chrome — With Blur

Add a draggable webcam bubble to any screen recording in Chrome. Pick your camera, blur the background on-device, and record screen plus face together. Free.

Updated

A screen recording with your face in the corner lands differently than a faceless one. The tutorial feels like a person explaining it, the product demo feels like a pitch from someone real, the bug report feels like a colleague walking you through it. The problem is usually the setup: a separate webcam app, a compositing step afterward, or a tool that ships the whole thing to a cloud before you can use it.

SuperchargeCapture puts the camera right in the recorder. Turn on the webcam bubble, pick your device, optionally blur the background, and record your screen and face together in a single take.

A Draggable Webcam Bubble

The webcam appears as a circular overlay on top of whatever you’re capturing, whether that’s a tab, a window, or your full screen. It’s draggable, so you place it wherever it won’t cover what matters: bottom-right for a standard talking-head, off to a corner when you need the center of the screen clear, moved again mid-recording if the important content shifts. A device picker lets you choose the right camera when you have more than one (a laptop cam and an external one, say), so you’re never stuck recording from the wrong lens.

Because the bubble is part of the same recorder, your face and your screen are captured together. There’s no second file to line up, no editing pass to overlay the camera afterward — one recording, both streams.

On-Device Background Blur

Recording from a real room means whatever is behind you is in the shot. The optional background blur softens it, and it does so on your device. The camera feed is processed locally to produce the blur; your video isn’t streamed to a server to be cleaned up and handed back. That keeps a feature people usually associate with cloud meeting apps fully private: the unblurred feed never leaves your machine.

Built to Combine

The webcam shines in combination with the rest of the recorder. Pair it with tab recording for a zero-OS-picker walkthrough where you talk over a demo. Layer on auto-zoom so the video zooms toward each click while your face stays in the corner. Add the microphone with its live level meter so you can confirm your audio before you start. The pieces are designed to stack into one polished recording rather than forcing you to assemble them from separate tools.

And like every recording here, it’s crash-safe — written to the browser’s private storage in one-second chunks, so a crash mid-take doesn’t cost you the recording, camera feed and all.

Privacy

The webcam feed is recorded locally and stays on your device, exactly like the screen capture it accompanies. Background blur is computed on-device, there’s no account, no telemetry, and nothing is injected into pages until you start recording. The only way any recording — webcam included — goes anywhere is if you choose to use the optional Share to Drive button, which uploads to your own Google Drive and never through a SuperchargeBrowser server.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I add my webcam to a screen recording?
Turn on the webcam bubble before you record. A circular camera overlay appears on top of your capture, and a device picker lets you choose which camera to use. It records together with your tab, window, or screen so the final video has your face and your screen in a single take.
Can I move the webcam bubble out of the way?
Yes. The bubble is draggable — reposition it to any corner so it doesn't cover the part of the screen you're demonstrating. Put it bottom-right for a talking-head intro, then drag it aside when you need the full frame.
Can I blur my webcam background?
Yes, and it runs on your device. The optional background blur processes the camera feed locally — your video is never uploaded to a service to be blurred. As of June 2026 it's part of the free recording set.
Do I need a separate tool to record screen and webcam at once?
No. The webcam bubble is built into the same recorder, so screen and camera are captured together in one pass. You don't composite two files afterward or run a second app.
Is the webcam feed sent anywhere?
No. The camera feed is recorded locally alongside your screen and stays on your device. The background blur is computed on-device, there's no account, and no telemetry — nothing about your camera leaves your machine unless you choose to share the finished recording.
