Overview and video tutorial
If your computer doesn’t have a camera or you’d just prefer to use your mobile device, you can still record and submit your speech assignments through the Soomo video recorder. Note that on iOS devices, only the Safari browser can be used to record.
Start your recording
Tip: We recommend entering fullscreen mode to record videos on your mobile device. Just tap Go Fullscreen in the yellow banner above the recorder before you start.
To begin recording a video with the Soomo video recorder, tap Create Video.
Add a title to your video, then tap Continue.
From there, you have the option to record your video within the Soomo video recorder or to upload a video from your device. For more information on how to upload a video, check out our Help Center article: How do I upload a video to the Soomo video recorder?
Record your video
To start recording your video, tap Continue to Recorder.
If it’s your first time recording in the Soomo video recorder, you may be asked to allow access to your camera and microphone. If prompted, tap Allow.
You’re ready to record! Tap the Record button when you’d like to begin.
While recording, you can use the buttons in the recording panel to manage your video:
Restart to begin your recording again.
Pause to take a break from recording. When you’re ready to jump back in, click Resume to start recording again.
When you’re done recording, tap Stop.
Review and submit
Once you’ve stopped recording, use the buttons at the bottom of the recording panel to choose how to proceed:
Restart to begin your recording again.
Delete to archive or delete the recording.

You’ll know your video has been uploaded and processed successfully when the video thumbnail appears in the main view of the Soomo video recorder.
