What is Qooly Audio Recorder?

Audio Recorder - Record Voice & Tab Sound is a simple browser extension that lets you record audio directly from your browser. If you need to save sound from a browser tab, record your own voice through your laptop's microphone, or capture both at the same time, the extension makes the process quick and easy. It is a great tool for students, teachers, remote workers, content creators, and anyone who needs reliable audio recordings without installing complicated software. The extension offers several recording modes to fit different situations. Record audio from the current browser tab to save online lectures, webinars, podcasts, music, or other streaming content. If you need to create voice notes, explain an idea, or record narration, simply switch to microphone recording and use your laptop's built-in microphone or any connected microphone. You can also record tab audio and microphone audio together. This is especially useful during online meetings, interviews, training sessions, or work calls where you want to capture both the conversation and your own responses. For the best recording quality, we recommend that participants speak one at a time instead of talking over each other. This helps produce a cleaner recording that is easier to understand when listening later. Starting a recording takes only a few clicks. Choose the recording mode, allow the required permissions, and begin recording immediately. If you prefer an even faster workflow, you can also set up custom keyboard shortcuts to start and stop recordings without opening the extension popup. The interface is clean and easy to use, so you can focus on your conversation, lecture, or presentation instead of learning complicated controls.

Frequently Asked Questions

Learn more about how Qooly Audio Recorder works and what makes it special.

What can I record with Qooly Audio Recorder?

You can record audio from two sources: your microphone or the sound playing in your browser tab. This makes it useful for a wide range of situations, like recording your own voice, capturing audio from a video or stream playing in the browser, or recording online calls and meetings. Just click the extension icon, choose your audio source, and start recording right away.

Is there a time limit on recordings?

No, there are no limits of any kind, neither on how long you can record nor on how many recordings you can make. You can record a short voice memo or let it run for hours, and then come back and record again as many times as you need. There are no caps, no daily quotas, and no restrictions that would push you toward a paid plan.

What formats can I save my recordings in?

After finishing a recording, you can save it in three formats: WEBM, MP3, or WAV. WEBM is a compact format good for web use, MP3 is the most universally compatible audio format and works on virtually any device or app, and WAV gives you an uncompressed file with the highest possible audio quality. You can pick whichever format suits your needs best before downloading.

Can I adjust the playback speed of my recording?

Yes, after recording you can play back your audio at different speeds, anywhere from 0.5x to 3x. Slowing it down is useful if you need to carefully review what was said, while speeding it up helps you get through longer recordings much faster. It's a simple but handy feature that saves a lot of time when reviewing recordings.

Is the extension free to use?

Yes, completely free. There are no subscriptions, no hidden fees, and no premium features locked behind a paywall. Every feature the extension offers, including unlimited recordings, multiple format options, and playback speed control, is available to all users at no cost. You don't need to create an account or enter any payment details to use it.

Where are my recordings saved?

All recordings are saved directly to your device. The extension never uploads your audio to any server and has no access to the content of what you record. Once you stop recording and choose your format, the file is downloaded straight to your browser's default downloads folder and stays on your computer, completely private and accessible only to you.
