Save Mac Screen Recordings as Editable .screenui Project Files
Quick Answer
Screen UI saves Mac screen recordings as editable .screenui project files. Each Finder-visible package keeps project JSON, media, sidecar assets, overlays, transcript data, cursor data, zooms, and edit settings together so the recording can be reopened and changed later on Mac.
A polished product demo may need more work later. Screen UI keeps the project editable by saving the recording, media sidecars, transcript data, cursor data, and edit decisions inside one Finder-visible project package.

Built for editable screen recording project file Mac searches and real demo workflows.
Screen UI saves recordings as Finder-friendly .screenui packages that keep media, edits, overlays, transcripts, cursor data, and project settings together.
Project JSON plus copied media and sidecar assets inside the package
The package keeps the edit description and required media together for later work.
Saved overlays, captions, zooms, cursor data, and edit state
Saved project state preserves the parts that make a screen recording editable after export.
Reopen projects without manually managing raw media files
Moving or reopening a project is simpler because sidecar files stay inside the package.
Workflow
How this works in Screen UI.
- Save the current recording as a .screenui project package.
- Screen UI copies the required media and sidecar files into the package.
- Reopen the project later and continue editing from the saved state.
Use cases
Where this feature helps.
- Pause a product demo edit and return to it later
- Keep transcript, cursor, overlay, and media data in one project
- Avoid losing sidecar assets after moving a recording project
- Reuse an edited recording for a later launch, tutorial, or support update
