2023-09-14	Michelle Jensen	I work as a tech coach in several schools. I love screencastify! It is a great tool for teachers to make instructional videos and offer student feedback. It is also a powerful way to support troubleshooting as teachers ask tech support questions through video and I respond in the same way!
2023-09-13	Kathleen Receveur	First and foremost, I must commend the Screencastify team and Shaun Conway for their remarkable customer support. Whenever I encountered an issue or had a question, their response rate was astonishingly quick. It's evident that they prioritize customer satisfaction, and this level of attentiveness is truly appreciated. One of the standout features of Screencastify is the wealth of informational training resources they provide. These resources are a treasure trove for educators looking to harness the full potential of this extension. The step-by-step tutorials, webinars, and documentation are not only comprehensive but also user-friendly. The true beauty of Screencastify lies in its simplicity and ease of use. As an educator, I appreciate how intuitive the app is for our teachers and administrators. Our Superintendent uses this tool for his weekly message to principals! Creating screen recordings, video lessons, and tutorials has never been easier. The ability to capture not only my screen but also myself via the webcam is a game-changer for maintaining student engagement. As a district Technology specialist supporting school administration and educators, this tool is a must. Our Screencastify contact, Shaun Conway has been remrkable to work with . I wholeheartedly recommend Screencastify to any educator looking to enhance their teaching and connect with their students in a meaningful way. It's truly a five-star tool!

2023-09-12	noah king	Screencastify is the best screen recording software I've ever used. It has a simple interface with tons of features. As a teacher, I love how easy it is to make a screencast to share with students or colleagues. I also love the Submit feature, which allows other people to record their own screen and send me the video with one click, even if they don't have Screencastify themselves. There are tons of export options, too. such as automatically publishing my videos to YouTube or exporting them as animated GIFs or mp3s.
2023-09-12	Miranda Felton	Screencastify has everything I need in a screen recorder and more! I am a teacher, and started using the free version to record screencasts for my students. I then had students create their own screencasts using the extension on their Chromebooks, and it was a game changer to promote more in-depth learning, language practice, and more. My school district now pays for the premium license, and I can't say enough about the embedded video editor with the blur tool. There is also an awesome classroom feature that allows my students to easily create and submit video-based assignments. Super user-friendly- my second graders used it no problem- and so should you!
2023-09-08	venom joy	this is good for my youtube videos because i dont have to worry about recording for to long
2023-09-08	張哲郡	值得付費使用。
2023-09-07	jkmallen	Screencastify's has improved a ton over the years. Love being able to create and edit right from a Chromebook. Submit is definitely and underutilized feature in education.

2023-07-31	sahiti chowdary	Its amazing but i cant figure out how to put it to youtube can u pls help
2023-07-25	Thomas Jones	The only app I pay for. Its easy to use and figure out.
2023-07-24	Jeremy Wright	All I get is a spinning wheel when trying to use the extension.
2023-07-24	Haniyyah Green	Perfect! Only problem is that I need the audio on the tab to play and it won't, I don't know if it's a setting I can't find or something (I enabled system audio and it still didn't work)
2023-07-23	Gareth Rossi	Sign in required.
2023-07-20	Ana Gonzalez Oropeza	Very user friendly. BUT when I recorded an important meeting, the audio quality changed from normal to somewhat poor.
2023-07-10	Krishna Kanth M	IT IS VALUABLE AND GGOOD QUALITY ALTHOUGH IT IS EXPENSIVE
2023-07-09	Cody	since the extension rolled back the changes back to old version I'm giving this 5 stars again :)
2023-07-06	Edu Always Run	so nao sei como funciona, por onde começo?
2023-07-04	Potato boy	I liked its smoother then other app I pay for then I unstailed it found its very good! :)
2023-07-03	Guiljermes	A ferramenta é boa, mas esse negocio de pagar é horrível, muita ganância
2023-06-29	Stephanie Reese	I've used Screencastify for some presentations during COVID and some other courses that I was taking. It was good for short videos but there is a limit and after that you have to pay for more "storage". If you don't have a lot of videos to record or long recordings then it is great to use. I have found it useful for my students by recording how to access some programs or materials and then posting it on the Google Classroom.
