help Kap FAQ

What can Kap record?

Kap is a screen-recording and lightweight video-editing tool for macOS. It can capture screen activity, trim clips, add simple text overlays, and export or share recordings.

Can Kap edit videos like a full professional editor?

Kap is aimed at quick screen recordings and simple edits such as trimming and text overlays. It is not intended to replace advanced editors with multi-track timelines, complex effects, and detailed audio controls.

Who would use Kap instead of a tool such as OBS Studio?

Kap suits someone who wants a simple recording workflow with minimal setup on a Mac. OBS Studio offers deeper control, including scenes and streaming features, but has a steeper learning curve.
