How to record audio from a video call

Use the recorder on this page to mix your microphone with a supported video call tab or system source. The result is a local audio-only file.

Checking recording support…

Compatibility at a glance

Mixed capture requires Chrome or Edge and a shareable source with audio. A web call tab is usually the most reliable source. Safari and Firefox can record only your microphone.

Recommended source: Both

What to know

Practical limits for video call recording guide.

Record the call on this page

Choose Both to combine your microphone with the remote call sound. The browser tool is useful when you need an occasional audio-only recording without a meeting bot.

This page does not connect to the call service. It cannot enable a restricted native feature or download a cloud recording.

Share the call audio

Share only the call tab when possible. This limits unrelated system sounds and keeps the remote source clear.

Check the Share audio option and make a short test. If the remote side is missing, stop and choose a different supported source.

Permission and privacy

Tell participants and follow the recording and consent rules that apply to your location, organization, and meeting. Local capture does not remove those obligations.

Your recording never leaves this page. Download the result before closing the tab if you need to keep it.
