What is RecApp FOR LINUX?

There are many decent screen recording tools for Linux, starting with the famously iffy GNOME screen recorder and ending with more competent tools such as Kazam.

RecApp is one such app, a free and open-source screen recorder for Linux and, while it doesn't particularly offer something unique in terms of features, it's a good alternative to consider.

The most interesting thing about RecApp (probably) is that it doesn't use the FFmpeg to do its job. Instead, it uses a collection of free GStreamer modules. It's also written in GTK if that matters.

You get most of the features found in most other tools of this sort. These include the ability to choose the frames per second, add delays to your recordings, the option to record the whole screen or a  specific region, and the ability to choose between either "High quality" or the default, compressed quality for your recordings.

The app also allows you to record audio from different sources, add the pointer to your recordings, choose the destination folder (for saving the videos), and three recording formats, namely MP4, WebM, and MKV.

The thing that makes RecApp stand out, at least in terms of looks, is its simple, yet different GUI. It doesn't have fancy menus or hidden buttons, just a "Record" button in the top left part of its main window, and all the available features are listed below.

In short, everything you need is right there in front of you, which should make it a very nice app for beginners.

As mentioned at the start of this review, RecApp is by no means a complex or unique app. It's a simple, bare-bones screen recorder for Linux that should work without issues on most Linux distributions.
