The Best Free Screen Recorders with No Time Limitation

Screen Recorder is a software that records video from your system screen and presents it to you in the form of a video file. You may need a screen recorder for a variety of reasons:

• You may want to teach your friend how to perform a computer task remotely by recording a video
• You may want to publish a tutorial on how to work with a software program and publish it as an instructional video for public use in somewhere like YouTube.
• You may also want to record a video of a problem with your system to show it to an expert who is not next to you to help you resolve the issue.

However, in order to be able to record a high quality video from your monitor screen, in such cases, you need to use a special tool for this task named the screen recorder software.

If you are not familiar with screen recorders and you do not know to select which of the hundreds of screen recorders available with different capabilities and features. Follow us in this article...

Criteria for Selecting the Best Screen Recorders

There are several screen recorders with different features and functions, but which one is a better choice for you?
Before writing this article, we tested dozens of screen recorders and after comparing and assessing each of them, we have selected 3 of the best ones that we think are suitable for all varieties of users.
We considered 5 main criteria for selecting these software programs:

1. Being Free
   Our priority has been the introduction of screen recorder software that provide users with the necessary features to record high-quality videos from the system screen for free.
2. Simplicity of the User Interface
   We have tried to select the screen recorders that are easy to work with; as simple as pressing a button to start and end for recording and saving the videos.
3. No Time Limitation
   Most manufacturer websites claim that they offer their screen recorders for free to download, but practically most of these screen recorders record video from your system screen only for a short period of time (a few minutes) and then they just cut off, and for unlimited recordings, you are invited to purchase the full version. For this reason, in this article, we tried to find a screen recorder that you can use to record your video for free and without any time limitation.
4. Low Size Video
   Because the purpose of the screen record is to upload the output video somewhere else, our preference has been for the output video file to be smaller in size so that it can be uploaded faster and uses less internet traffic. .
5. High Quality of the Recorded Video
   Since the purpose of the screen record is to watch the output video to find a problem or in some cases use it to teach a subject, it is obvious that the high quality of the image is of particular importance to the user. Therefore, we have made it one of our main criteria for choosing the best screen recorders.

Having said that, although our selected screen recorders have the ability to record from the webcam, edit the recorded video, record only a part of the screen, record audio, etc., we have not included them in the selection of the main criteria, because we have assumed that if you need to edit the video or add voice to it after recording the video, you will get help from other software programs.
