ScreenMark: Hide Before Record

Hide private info BEFORE you record your screen — so it never gets into the video.

ScreenMark is a screen recording companion: an overlay that covers account numbers, usernames and game UIDs, numbers your tutorial steps, and shows the exact crop for vertical video. It is not a screen recorder. It runs on top of the built-in screen recorder of your phone, or any screen recorder app you already like. Arrange it, lock it, press record.

WHY COVER IT BEFORE, NOT BLUR IT AFTER?
Blurring in an editor means the private pixels were recorded first, and one missed frame is enough. A ScreenMark cover is on screen from the very first frame, so there is nothing to blur, trim or re-record.

■ PRIVACY COVERS — hide info on screen
• Drop an opaque patch over a name, balance, phone number, e-mail or game UID
• Drag the corner grip to fit it exactly
• One-tap placement on the status bar, a top corner, the centre strip or the bottom bar
• Fully opaque at 100%: nothing shows through, even faintly
• Extra styles — mosaic, stripes, captioned label — in Pro or unlocked with an ad

■ STEP MARKERS — a tutorial that explains itself
• Numbered rings, brackets, hexagons, rotatable arrows and pins, each with an optional caption
• Up to 12 at once, so viewers follow the whole sequence without narration
• Spotlight: dim the rest of the screen and keep a soft-edged hole around the marker

■ FRAMING GUIDE — record once, publish anywhere
• 9:16 and 16:9 frames on screen while you record, for TikTok, YouTube Shorts and Reels
• Also 1:1, 4:5 and 4:3, with a rule-of-thirds grid, centre cross and caption-safe margin
• Recording landscape gameplay for a vertical clip? The 9:16 frame shows the strip that survives the crop

■ RESERVED AREAS — leave room for facecam and alerts
Outline where a facecam, chat box or alert will be added later, so the action never sits underneath it.

■ BUILT FOR THE MINUTE BEFORE YOU RECORD
• Before-you-record checklist: overlay state, Do Not Disturb, and hide notification content — so no message pops up mid-recording
• 5-second countdown so you can switch to the app you are recording
• Shake your phone to clear every layer, shake again to bring it back
• Quick Settings tile for the same toggle, one swipe away
• Scenes: save a whole arrangement (markers, covers, guide) and restore it in one tap
• Lock it, and your taps pass straight through to the app below
• Works in portrait and landscape; positions follow rotation

PERFECT FOR
Tutorial and how-to videos · gameplay and gaming clips · app demos and bug reports · bank, wallet and social-media walkthroughs · vertical Shorts, Reels and TikTok clips

FREE, WITH OPTIONAL PRO
Covers at full opacity, basic markers, the 9:16 and 16:9 frames, shake-to-hide, the Quick Settings tile, the checklist and the countdown are free. Spotlight, more cover styles, extra frame ratios, reserved areas and more scenes unlock for 60 minutes when you choose to watch one short ad, or for good with ScreenMark Pro (monthly, yearly with a 7-day free trial, or one-time lifetime). Pro also removes the banner ad. Ads appear only inside ScreenMark's own screens — never on top of other apps, never while you record, and not in your first few sessions.

PRIVACY BY DESIGN
ScreenMark only paints on your screen. It cannot read, control or modify other apps, and it has no account. Whatever is on your screen is never sent anywhere.

PERMISSIONS
"Display over other apps" to draw above other apps, and a notification so you can switch the overlay off at any moment.
