## Questions

### Why can it not reach my camera?

The page requires the browser's `getUserMedia` and `MediaRecorder` APIs and permission for both camera and microphone. A disabled **Start camera** means required APIs are unavailable; an access error after clicking can also mean permission was denied or no suitable device was found.

### Where does the recording go?

Into memory in this tab, and then into your downloads folder when you save it. No part of it is sent anywhere.
