When Screen Studio is the better fit

Screen Studio is a great product, and for some workflows it's still the right call. Pick Screen Studio if:

You work on macOS and want the native Mac experience, including Apple Silicon optimizations and tight OS integration.
You record iPhone or iPad screens via a direct device pipeline. Screen Studio pulls the device feed in directly; Rapidemo focuses on the Windows desktop.
You're already embedded in a Mac-first creator workflow and switching platforms isn't on the table.

If you're on Windows and considering switching to Mac just for Screen Studio, Rapidemo delivers the same automatic polish (zooms on clicks, cursor smoothing, cinematic layouts, on-device subtitles) on Windows 10 and 11.

Rapidemo is sick! It saved me 2k — almost bought a Mac just for Screen Studio.
