Ongoing Web, desktop Updated November 13, 2026Based on 3 user reportsHow we research

Quick answer

On the free Starter plan you can only have 25 videos and 5 minutes per recording. Past 25 you can still view them but must delete some or upgrade to record again.

Most likely fix: Delete or download old videos

How to fix it

Try these in order — the most common fix is first.

  1. 1. Delete or download old videos

    1. Delete videos you no longer need until the count is under 25
    2. Business plans allow downloads, so download before downgrading if you need the files
    Did this fix it?
  2. 2. Upgrade

    1. Business is $18/user/month and removes the limits; check the 17% annual saving
    Did this fix it?
  3. 3. Use a different tool for long videos

    1. Stay under 5 minutes or use an alternative with a larger free tier
