Description
Glide Frame is a native macOS application that records your screen, automatically figures out where and when to zoom in based on your clicks, smoothly follows your cursor while zoomed, and renders everything with spring-physics-based animations - then lets you fine tune all of it in a proper timeline editor before exporting a final video.
- One-click screen recording — pick any connected display and start recording instantly.
- Automatic zoom segments — Glide Frame analyzes your mouse-click activity after recording and automatically proposes zoom-in segments around bursts of activity, so you don't start from a blank timeline.
- Cursor-aware zoom — while zoomed in, the camera smoothly follows your cursor, staying within a 'safe zone' so it doesn't jitter on every tiny movement.
- Polished cursor overlay — an oversized, soft-shadowed cursor with a subtle 'squish' animation on click and a natural tilt driven by movement velocity.
- Spring-physics animation everywhere — zoom, pan, and cursor motion are all driven by a mass/stiffness/damping spring simulation instead of fixed-duration easing curves, so motion always feels natural regardless of distance or speed.
- Full timeline editor — scrub, zoom the timeline in/out, and add, delete, resize, or drag zoom segments with pixel-accurate control.
- Local, GPU-rendered export — exports a final MP4 with all zoom/cursor animations baked in, rendered frame-by-frame on the GPU and streamed straight to disk.
