Repeater For Mac

Repeater is a handy and user-friendly Mac OS X application that enables you to record user actions, such as mouse clicks and movements, keyboard strokes, as well as zooming and scrolling in any application installed on your Mac. Note, though, that Repeater should not be confused with a screencast creator.

As you might know, there are plenty of tools to record user actions on a Mac. For instance, AppleScript or Automator. However, these tools are too complicated for the casual user. Recording a simple presentation or repetitive action does not need to be difficult. This is where Repeater comes into play.

The Repeater application features a plain-looking user interface that resembles a simple music player. It includes buttons to start / stop recording, rewind and loop as well as a progress bar for playing the exact part of the recording.

The app can record and immediately play back your on-screen actions with just 2 clicks. The recordings can be saved as a .record file on your local disk that you can play again whenever you want.

Repeater is quite flexible when it comes to preferences, too. First of all, you can set a global hotkey to start a new recording and another one to replay the recording from the “Shortcuts” tab of the Preferences window.

In addition to this, you are able to toggle options to record information about running apps, to launch recorded apps on replay, to wait until recorded apps finish opening, as well as to restore active apps on replay.

In conclusion, Repeater is a simple no-frills tool that comes with a highly efficient workflow for recording user actions on the screen. The app can capture your mouse movements, key strokes and even zooming and scrolling actions.
