How to record a custom size video

Record only your preferred section of your screen. 📐

If you are on a Business, Business+ AI, Education, or Enterprise plan recording on Mac or Windows using the Loom desktop app, you can crop and record a specific section of your screen using custom-size recording mode. This way you control exactly what the viewer can see! 

Here's how: 

  1. Launch the Loom desktop app and select Custom Size as your capture mode.
