Our take

Making a short local software demonstration on an Apple silicon Mac

Window Capture may suit short software demonstrations on an Apple silicon Mac. Free MP4 clips stop at three minutes; the one-time Pro purchase removes that limit and adds silent GIF export. It requires macOS 15 or later and is not an iPhone recorder.

Keep in mind: Requires macOS 15 or later and an Apple M1 or newer chip.

What to compare

Select a single window and set system audio on and microphone off if narration is not required. Check the permission prompts before recording.

Keep the free attempt under three minutes, trim the beginning and end, then inspect the saved MP4. A longer recording or silent GIF requires Pro.
