About this tool
Recording directly from a webcam in a browser uses the same getUserMedia API that video conferencing applications use. The advantage of doing it here is that the recording saves to your device without an account or a server holding the video. For quick personal messages, interview responses, or video notes, it is faster than opening separate recording software.
The mirrored preview is deliberate — it behaves like a mirror and feels natural for the person being recorded. The saved file is not mirrored, because that is how the camera captures the scene from the viewer's perspective. Both are correct for their purpose; the distinction only matters if you have text in the background that would read backwards in the final recording.
