Below you'll find the publisher's own description, a quick spec sheet, and a short buyer-beware checklist so you know exactly what you're installing before tapping download.
Install Checklist
- Only download through the button on this page — never from third-party mirrors or shortened links, which are the most common way malware spreads.
- File size is a light 2.09 MB, so it installs quickly even on modest connections.
- This build is signed by "F-Droid Open Source" — always verify the developer name matches what's listed on the app's official store page before installing an update.
- After install, Android may prompt you to allow "Install from unknown sources" — approve only this one install, then revoke the permission in Settings > Apps > Special access.
- We link directly to the APK file or the publisher's repository; we do not modify the binary. Always run a virus scan after any sideloaded install.

the screen recording and get it beautifully combined with the recorded video.

choice of quality and size of the video or make use of the app shortcut in
android 7.1 nougat or in any custom launcher supporting app shortcuts.
You can also pause or resume the recording seamlessly (currently only works on
Android Nougat 7.0 and above) and an option to change the save directory.

Yes. The APK file linked from this page is free. The developer may offer in-app purchases once installed, but obtaining the installer itself costs nothing.

Android 4.1+ or newer. Installing on older devices may cause crashes or refuse to install.
Is ScreenCam safe to install?
We link to the exact APK published by F-Droid Open Source. We do not modify the file. Still, as with any sideloaded app, scan it with a reputable antivirus before opening it, and only grant permissions the app genuinely needs.
How do I update ScreenCam?
Install the newer version on top of the old one — Android will keep your data. If the signature differs, uninstall first (you may lose local progress).
