How to Use Loom Video Creation Software

Loom is a Chrome Extension that allows you to create quick screen capture or webcam videos.

It is similar to Screencast Capture (which replaced Jing and which I use on almost a daily basis) with a couple of notable exceptions:

  • Loom allows you to create webcam videos, which Capture does not,
  • Loom lets you download the video, whereas with Capture you have to upload it to Screencast.com
  • Capture lets you do image capture as well as videos, which Loom does not, and
  • Capture will automatically upload your video to Screencast.com, where it will stay indefinitely.  Loom’s video link expires in 7 days unless you refer someone to them,

So, I guess one will not replace the other, but each has its place…

Here is a short video that demonstrates how to download and use Loom.
