Record your screen and webcam, draw on the screen, edit the auto-generated transcript and then share a link with other people who use the Screencast app.

What's hot at TechRepublic
The Screencast app, included with ChromeOS Version 103, includes the ability to record your screen, audio from your microphone and video from your webcam all at once. While recording, you may use the marker tool to draw on your screen. When you stop recording, the system saves the recording to a Screencasts folder on Google Drive and starts the process of automatically generating a transcript. You may review the recording in the app, then generate a link to share with other people who use the Screencast app on ChromeOS. It's a useful tool for anyone who wants to record and share videos on a Chromebook.
SEE: Better tab management in ChromeOS, thanks to desks (TechRepublic)
To use the Screencast app, make sure your Chromebook is updated to version 103: Click the bottom right corner, where the time typically displays, and choose Settings > About ChromeOS > Check for Updates. To access the app, select the ChromeOS Launcher, then search for Screencast. Select the app icon to start it.

Record your screen and webcam

Select the +New Screencast button. An overlay menu displays, as shown in Figure A, from which you may adjust your screencast audio and video settings.

You may choose to:

Record full screen;

Record partial screen (i.e., select a rectangular portion of the screen to record); or

Record window.

Select the settings icon to choose a microphone or camera (e.g., Off or Front Camera).

When the Front Camera is active, the image from the webcam displays in a circle. You may click/tap on the circle, then drag it to any of the four corners of your Chromebook screen. Additionally, you may click on the two arrows within the webcam circle to toggle back-and-forth between a small or large size.

Once you start the recording, a brief countdown displays. When recording, a red square within a circle displays in the Chromebook Shelf, next to a marker icon.

Draw on the screen

While recording, select the marker icon, then you may draw on the screen, as shown in Figure B. A long-press (or, on a touchpad, two-finger tap) on the marker icon gives you access to a palette of four marker colors to select: magenta, blue, yellow or red. To clear your marks, either click on the marker icon to toggle it off or double-tap on a touchscreen (or, on a touchpad, two-finger tap). You may resume standard browser navigation and controls once out of marker mode.

Access and edit the auto-generated transcript

To end recording, select the red square within the circle icon. The system then starts to transfer your recording to Google Drive and also initiates the auto-transcription process.

Wait while the Processing... indicator displays on the thumbnail of your recording. Processing time may vary with the speed of your internet connection and the duration of your recording. When completed, select your screencast to open it.

The auto-generated transcript displays on the right side of your screen, as shown in Figure C. Select the kebab menu to the right of any transcript section to access options to edit the text or choose to skip the section during playback. Viewers of the screencast may choose to translate the transcript text into another language.

Share a link

To generate a link to the Screencast, select the blue Share button in the upper right. You may be prompted to name your Screencast. Adjust the sharing options as desired ( Figure D) and select Copy Link. Then, switch to another app (e.g., Google Chat, Spaces, Gmail or a Google Doc) to paste the link in a message or document. Anyone who attempts to follow the link will need to do so on a ChromeOS device with the Screencast app available. People on other systems or without access to the Screencast app will receive a "Can't view on this device" message.

The screencast file is saved in WebM format. If you wish, you may make a copy of the file and share that with all the standard Google Drive share functionality. You may also use various tools to convert and edit this WebM file into other video formats.

What's your experience with the ChromeOS Screencast app?

In early July 2022, I discovered the Screencast app was only available on my Chromebook when I signed in with my personal Gmail account. When I signed in to ChromeOS with two different paid Google Workspace accounts, I could use built-in features to record my screen and webcam, but the Screencast app-along with the marker, transcript and sharing system-was not yet available to my organizational accounts. If you use an account managed by a Google Workspace administrator, you may need to wait for Google and your Workspace administrator to make the Screencast app available.

To me, the Screencast app reminds me a bit of the very early days of Google Classroom. It feels like a useful and interesting app that leverages core strengths of Chrome and Google Drive. At the same time, the multiplicity of obvious opportunities to make the app more useful and full-featured are easy to envision.

What do you think of the ChromeOS Screencast app? Does the app replace an existing tool you've been using to create and share screencasts? How do the features and functionality meet your needs and expectations? What sort of content do you most often use screencasts for?

Mention or message me on Twitter (@awolber) to let me know about your experience with the Screencast app.

What Is Multi-Factor Authentication?

The authentication method most of us are familiar with is being required to enter a username and password. But passwords have a lot of problems. For instance, we're bad at remembering them and even worse at picking unique, complex passwords that can stand up to attacks. People also tend to reuse passwords, meaning that if one account is compromised, all other accounts with the same password are also at risk.

Multi-factor authentication, sometimes called two-factor authentication or 2FA, changes that by using more than one authentication factor. That doesn't mean a second password, but at least any two from a list of three possible factors:

Something you know.

Something you have.

Something you are.

Something you know is typically a password. It lives in your head and is ideally known only to you. Something you have could be a security key such as those we've listed here, an authenticator app on your phone, or a code sent via SMS to your phone. It's something not easy for a stranger to access or obtain. Finally, something you are is a physical characteristic that can be read with a biometric scan, such as a fingerprint or your face, though using the latter ranks among the worst mistakes in technology.

Because it's extremely unlikely an attacker will have access to more than one of these forms of authentication, MFA makes it much harder for bad guys to take over accounts. It's been proven in the real world, too. When Google required employees to use hardware MFA keys, account takeovers effectively vanished.

What Is a Security Key?

While they can take many forms, most security keys are small, key-sized devices that uniquely identify themselves to sites and services. They're something you have.

To use a security key, you first have to enroll it with each site or service you want to protect. Support for security keys is increasing, but don't be surprised if they're not accepted at every site you try. You'll still need another form of MFA for all the sites and services that don't accept security keys.

Enrolling a key is slightly different for each key and site, but it usually goes something like this: Somewhere in the site or service settings is an option to enroll your security key. Click it, insert the key, tap the key's button when prompted, and give the key's record a name so you know what it is. Some sites and services limit you to just one key, while others allow or even require more than one. Many sites require you to enable an alternate form of MFA or generate one-time use security codes, to act as backups to your key.

The next time you go to log in, you're prompted to present your security key after entering your username and password for an account. You connect the key through some kind of data transfer connection-typically USB-A or USB-C -and then press a button on the device to verify you're a real person and not a clever malware attack impersonating a key. If both the password and the key check out, you log in as normal.

Some hardware keys include wireless communication capabilities, usually through near-field communication (NFC), to interact with mobile devices. Other keys have biometric authentication for an added layer of protection.

Are All MFA Factors Equal?

While two factors are always better than one, each MFA scheme has potential advantages and drawbacks.

Receiving one-time-passcodes via SMS text message is one of the oldest and most widespread forms of MFA, but it has two major drawbacks: it requires you to have a functioning phone, and the code can potentially be intercepted through SIM jacking. Login codes generated by authenticator apps are more secure than SMS codes and don't require a network connection, but your phone does need to be available and powered.

If you're new to MFA, we recommend starting with app-generated codes. They're free, secure, and easy to use and understand. But if you're already familiar with MFA and are interested in upping your security game, hardware security keys are the next step.

Hardware-based security keys solve most of the problems of other MFA schemes. The best hardware keys have no batteries and require no network connection. They also have no moving parts, making them difficult to break. Because they work on purpose-made hardware they're much harder to attack, unlike a phone that has is running lots of software and has numerous means of connecting to the internet. Finally, it can be kind of fun to have a special tool for logging in.

There are downsides to using hardware keys for MFA, of course. Unlike other authentication factors hardware keys cost money-from $20 to as high as $95. Hardware keys can also be lost and aren't as widely supported as app-based MFA codes.

That said, it's important to remember that MFA of any kind can't protect against all the dangers the modern world presents. We strongly recommend using antivirus software as well as a password manager to create unique and complex passwords for each site and service you use.

How Do Security Keys Work?

The most widespread means of hardware security key authentication is based on the standards from the FIDO Alliance. All these standards do fundamentally the same thing: They use asymmetric cryptography to authenticate you to a site or service.

Each device can generate any number of public keys from its private key, without exposing the private key. That allows a single hardware key to be used for multiple sites and services but most importantly, it means a failure or change at any one site or service won't affect the other. You can easily remove and enroll your hardware key as many times as you like.

When shopping for a hardware security key, you should look for at least FIDO U2F certification, because it means the key will work in just about every basic security key context. FIDO2/ WebAuthn are the next-generation standards, which support additional types of authentication. If you want to use a device for biometric MFA or passwordless login, you need FIDO2/WebAuthn.

Are Security Keys Safe?

Going from a password that (ideally) is a complete secret to a little bauble like a security key can sometimes feel like being less secure. After all, what happens if your key is stolen or lost?

It's extremely unlikely someone would have the means to track down an individual user and steal their security key. Most cybercrime is committed en masse with thousands or millions of compromised accounts. One security key isn't worth the effort.

Still, it's not impossible that a determined attacker could use a stolen key to access your accounts. That's why it's important to keep your key safe, but also to use strong passwords secured in a password manager. If the thief gets the key but can't crack your password, they're still not getting in.

It's far more likely that you lose your key, and that can be a real problem. Yubico recommends enrolling a second key and storing it as a secure backup. Many services that support security keys also allow (and some require) you to enroll multiple MFA factors, so you could set up an authenticator app as a backup MFA option and use that if you don't have your key.

Services often let you generate backup codes you can write down offline or store in a password manager. These codes grant you access in emergencies. If none of that works, find a device where you are still logged in and unenroll the key or add a new MFA factor you do have. The bottom line is that losing your security key is not the end of the world.

How to Choose a Security Key

The first thing to look at when choosing a security key is how the key literally fits with the rest of your devices. If you don't have any devices with USB-C, you should stick to keys with a USB-A connector. If you intend on using your key with mobile devices (and you should) select a key with either a connector that fits your phone or NFC, if your phone supports NFC.

You also need to consider your budget. The most expensive keys we've reviewed cost up to $95, which is a significant chunk of change. If you're new to hardware security keys, we strongly recommend starting with a cheaper key and upgrading later. The Security Key NFC and Security Key C NFC, both from Yubico, work well for basic MFA and offer NFC for mobile devices. Either is great for first-time buyers.

Most security keys just authenticate you, and that's enough. But some go further with additional features. Kensington has a line of biometric keys that require the correct fingerprint to authenticate you. High-end YubiKeys have numerous additional features: the ability to play back a static password, working with a desktop or mobile app to provide app-generated passcodes, supporting PGP key management, and offering their own form of one-time passcodes.

More obscure facets of each key may be significant to the most discerning buyers. NitroKeys and SoloKeys use all open-source code and hardware, making them a strong choice for a particular crowd. Yubico locks down all its devices from firmware changes to protect them from tampering, while NitroKey celebrates its updatable firmware.

Passkeys vs. Security Keys

Passkeys are a secure authentication system that may one day replace passwords. Several major players have thrown their weight behind this technology, making it far more likely to catch on than any other previous effort to replace passwords. Apple, Google, and Microsoft have all added support for passkeys to their platforms, so you're likely to start seeing them appear as an option soon. If you want to try out passkeys, look at our instructions on how to use passkeys with your Google account or your Apple account.

A super-secure authentication scheme might sound like a death knell for security keys, but not so! Some security keys can store passkeys, keeping them safe and separate from your phone or computer. We tested the Security Key NFC, Security Key C NFC, and YubiKey Series 5 key, all of which can store passkeys.

The number of passkeys on a security key may be limited, however. The documentation from Yubico says that the company's devices can hold only 25 passkeys per security key.

Which Security Keys Work With Apple and Google Accounts?

Google has long supported hardware security keys for MFA on Google Accounts, and as of January 2023, Apple does as well for AppleID.

Apple and Google have different suggestions about what kind of security keys to use. In its instructions, Google simply links to a Google search for FIDO U2F keys. Apple says you must use two "FIDO Certified" hardware security keys, referring people to the FIDO Alliance list of certified devices. This list is difficult to navigate and doesn't include all the devices we've listed above, such as the Nitrokey. Apple does, however, suggest YubiKey 5C NFC, YubiKey 5Ci, and Feitan ePass K9 NFC USB-A specifically. We haven't yet tested Apple's implementation of security key support and don't know how restrictive it might be.

In addition to technical requirements, you'll need to consider compatibility. Apple's system has particular requirements about which version of iOS, iPadOS, and macOS you can use with security keys, so be sure to check them. You also need to use one of these up-to-date Apple devices to authenticate HomePod and Apple TV devices, as neither works directly with hardware security keys. Apple also requires the use of two security keys (one for a backup) while Google will let you enroll just one.

One key difference between Apple and Google's implementation of security keys is that Apple warns, "If you lose all of your trusted devices and security keys, you could be locked out of your account permanently." Google, however, has a recovery process.

In addition to their support for security keys for MFA, both Apple and Google have launched optional programs that place additional security measures around accounts and data. Google's Advanced Protection Program focuses on preventing account takeovers, but Apple's Advanced Data Protection for iCloud goes further, storing the encryption keys for your data on your devices. Apple doesn't require hardware security keys for Advanced Data Protection for iCloud, but you do have to enable MFA. Google requires two hardware security keys to enroll in its Advanced Protection Program.

The Key to Security

Hardware security keys are the best, most secure method of MFA. We highly recommend them. But for some, the idea of paying for a key or having to fetch it for every login is too much bother, and that's just fine. What's most important is that you find an MFA scheme that works for you and that you use it.

Over the past three years, more than 30 million kids have read more than 120 million stories on Read Along. The app, which was first released as Bolo in India in 2019 and released globally as Read Along the following year, helps kids learn to read independently with the help of a reading assistant, Diya.

As kids read stories aloud, Diya listens and gives both correctional and encouraging feedback to help kids develop their reading skills. Read Along has been an Android app so far, and to make it accessible to more users, we have launched the public beta of the website version. The website contains the same magic: Diya's help and hundreds of well illustrated stories across several languages.

With the web version, parents can let their children use Read Along on bigger screens by simply logging into a browser from laptops or PCs at readalong.google.com. Just like the Android app, all the speech recognition happens in the browser so children's voice data remains private and we do not send it to any servers. You can learn more about data processing on the website version by reading our privacy policy.

Using the Screencast app, you can record and share lessons and demos with a transcript. You can use the transcript to search, trim, and translate screencasts.
When you have an idea to share, Screencast it
Access

The Screencast app is available on all ChromeOS devices with Chrome version 103 or later. If you don't see the app in the launcher, upgrade your device. For details, see Update your Chromebook's operating system.

Admins can disable the app for managed users. If you are using a managed Google Account on a device with ChromeOS 103 or later, but do not see the app in the launcher, contact your IT administrator to enable the app for your account.

Screencasts are stored in Google Drive, but viewed using the Screencast app. To view a screencast, click the link shared with you on a device and the app opens automatically for playback. Currently, you cannot view screencasts outside of ChromeOS.

Note: New screencasts can only be recorded by users with their device language set to English (US).

How to skip a section

Using Screencast you can skip sections during playback. To skip a section, next to the transcript text for that section click More Options and select Skip section. Viewers using the Screencast app will skip over this section during playback.

Note: Because the original recording remains on Google Drive, users with access to the screencast and the link can still see the original video and transcript.

Transcription

Screencast transcribes your narration into text so you can easily trim your recording and viewers can search, navigate, and translate screencasts via the transcript. Transcriptions can be processed on the device or sent to Google for processing depending on your device and device language.

To create a new recording, your device language must be set to one of the following:

Users with their device set to another language can view screencasts created by others, but cannot record their own.

Troubleshooting

How do I get the app?

Screencast is included in ChromeOS 104 or later. To find the app, click Launcher on the taskbar, typically in the lower left corner. You can pin the app to your shelf for easy access by right-clicking on the icon and selecting Pin to shelf.

If you are using a managed Google Account on a device with ChromeOS 104 or later, but do not see the app in the launcher, contact your IT administrator to enable the app for your account.

Is Screencast covered by my schools' Workspace for Education agreement?

Screencast recordings are stored in Google Drive and are covered by the Workspace for Education agreement which includes the Workspace Data Processing Amendment and Google Cloud Privacy Notice.

The link isn't working - what should I do?

Screencast recordings can currently only be viewed in the Screencast app on ChromeOS. If the user does not have the Screencast app, they cannot see the screencast. Screencast links are only visible to others if they're set to Shared with others.

To change the sharing setting, on the viewer page or the More Options menu, click Share for your screencast and select Shared with others.

How do I draw on my screen during recording?

To draw on the screen, click or tap Marker on the shelf during recording. You can then draw over on-screen content using the mouse, stylus, or touchscreen. On-screen navigation is disabled when the Marker is on.

Right-click or double-tap the screen with two fingers to clear your drawings.

Right-click or long-press Marker on the shelf to switch pen colors.

Click or tap Marker again to turn it off and re-enable on-screen navigation.

How do I record a portion of my screen?

After you click + New screencast in the app, you can select which parts of your screen to record before you begin your screencast.

Screencast is set to record your entire screen by default, but you can choose to record a partial screen or record a window by selecting those icons on the toolbar.

If you choose to record a window, click on the window you want to record.

If you choose to record a partial screen, click and drag your cursor over the region of your screen you want to record.

How do I disable or switch cameras for a recording?

Before you start recording, you can disable or switch cameras by clicking Settings on the toolbar and selecting a different option under Camera.

Will users outside of my organization be able to see recordings?

If you are a managed user for either a school or work account, and you share a recording using the Screencast app, it is only visible to other users with the link in your managed domain.

If you create and share a screencast using your personal account, it is visible to anyone with the link.

How do I stop a recording once I've started?

You can stop a recording by clicking Stop on the shelf. Stop is next to the date and time, typically in the lower right corner of your screen.

Why is processing taking so long?

After we record your screencast, we prepare the video in the cloud for streaming before you can share it. You can close your device and check back later to share it when it's fully processed.

Where is the Translate feature?

As the creator, you'll always see the screencast in the language it was recorded. When you share your screencast, your viewers have the option to translate the transcript to their chosen language.

How do I search within a screencast?

In the top-right above the transcript, click Search or press CTRL+F. Click the up or down arrows next to Search to skip through results.
