Video recording: record while you actually coach
Record video feedback while you navigate Coachway - edit a meal plan or program on screen without stopping, and it auto-attaches to the client's chat.
A short video answers what five paragraphs cannot - your client hears your voice and sees exactly what you mean.
See it in action
Open a meal plan, switch clients, change a program - all while still recording
In-app screen recording covers walkthroughs and feedback; for the demos you shoot yourself, our guide to filming exercise videos for online coaching shows how to get clean, clear clips your clients can actually follow.
Record while you work
No more talking at a frozen screen
The video stays persistently on top wherever you navigate, so the camera follows you instead of holding you to one tab. Edit a meal plan, update a program, jump to another client - the recording keeps rolling the whole time.
Done in one move
Straight into the client's chat
Pause and resume whenever you need to gather your thoughts. When you hit done, Coachway opens the client's chat with the video already attached, ready to send.
When coaches reach for it
Some things are better shown than typed
Walk through a new meal plan
Talk a client through their week while you build it on screen - far warmer than a wall of text.
Explain a program change
Swap exercises and narrate why as you do it, so the reasoning lands, not just the change.
Reply to a check-in on video
A short, spoken video reply turns a routine check-in into a personal moment.
Demo a form cue
Show the tweak you mean instead of trying to describe it in writing.
Answer the long question
Some answers are faster spoken than written - just hit record and talk.
Send a quick well done
A spontaneous "proud of you" after a PB is the kind of touch clients remember.

Questions, answered
Can I edit a meal plan or program while recording?
Yes - that is the whole point. Change the plan on screen and talk through it as you go, all in the same take.
Does the recording stop if I switch clients or tabs?
No. Switch clients, open settings, move around freely - it does not stop until you hit done.
Can I pause mid-video?
Yes. Pause to collect your thoughts or check the next thing you want to say, then resume - so you can record at your own pace instead of nailing it in one take.
Where does the finished video go?
When you click done, it opens the client's chat with the video already attached, ready to send.
What is it best for?
Video check-in replies and quick walkthroughs - anything easier to show and say than to type out.
What does it record?
Your screen and your voice as you move through Coachway - not a webcam selfie - so the client sees exactly what you are pointing at, narrated by you.
Where do I start a recording?
From the video record button in a client's chat. Start there, then carry on working - hit done when you have said your piece.
Can I record on mobile, or only desktop?
The recorder runs in the Coachway web app while you work across the platform on your computer.
Can I include my face on camera?
It records your screen and your voice - the format that keeps the client focused on what you are showing them. For a quick face-to-camera note, record on your phone and attach it to the chat.
How long can a video be?
There is nothing for you to manage - recordings store and stream inside the client app. Keep them focused; there is no need to pad a walkthrough out.
What does the client get?
The video lands in their chat in your branded app, where they can replay it any time, including at 1.5x and 2x speed.
