About

MotionShine is a screen recorder for Mac that also edits the recording in the same app. It adds an automatic zoom on every click and a smooth cursor you can restyle, so tutorials and product demos look polished without a separate editor.

In the editor each zoom is a block you can move, change or delete. You can restyle the cursor, add a camera bubble or change the camera layout after you record, and make captions on your Mac with Whisper. Export to MP4 or GIF.

Free has every feature, with no watermark and no time limit, and exports up to 720p. Pro is a one-time payment for 1080p up to 4K, with no subscription. Requires macOS 13 or later.

FAQ

Is it a subscription?

No. MotionShine is free, and every paid plan is a one-time payment. Pro includes 12 months of updates, and the app keeps working after them.

What do I get for free?

Everything, with no time limit: unlimited recordings, unlimited exports and every feature. It is not a trial. The only limit is export size: up to 720p at 30 fps. Any paid plan unlocks 1080p, 1440p, 4K and 60 fps.

Is there a watermark?

No, not even in the free version.

Which Macs does it run on?

Macs with macOS 13 Ventura or later, both Apple silicon and Intel.

How is it different from Screen Studio?

Both make polished recordings with auto zoom and a smooth cursor. MotionShine adds music on its own lanes, animated text, pictures and logos, 3D cursors and cursors made from your own pictures. It is free with unlimited exports, and you pay once only for higher resolution instead of a monthly plan. See the full comparison .

Where do my recordings go?

To Movies > MotionShine on your Mac. They never leave it unless you share them.

If I buy a licence later, can I export old videos in 4K?

Yes. Recordings are always kept at full quality, so any project can be exported again at 4K and 60 fps.

Can I get a refund?

Yes. Every paid plan has a 30-day “love it or it’s free” guarantee: if you do not love it, email us within 30 days and you get all your money back. See the refund policy .
