🎬 Loom's Live Rewind: Edit While You Record!

Sasha Rappaport

 

We’ve all been there. You hit record on a loom, you’re on a roll - and then... oops. You say the wrong date, stumble over a sentence, or just don’t love how that last part came out. With Live Rewind, you can now fix those moments as they happen—no need to re-record or spend time editing later. Check out how it works in this short video from @Liz Novak 

Why You Need It

Live Rewind is a total game-changer for anyone who wants to:

• Save time editing after recording

• Avoid restarting the whole Loom because of one small flub

• Deliver smoother, more polished videos on the first take

• Stay in the creative flow without losing momentum

Whether you're creating a quick update, a customer walkthrough, or a training video, Live Rewind helps you keep moving forward without compromising on quality.

How to Use It

Ready to give it a try? Here’s how Live Rewind works:

1. Start your recording as you normally would with the Loom Chrome Extension.

2. If you make a mistake mid-recording, click the "Rewind" button.

3. A trimming window will pop up, allowing you to cut out the unwanted section immediately.

4. You can preview your edit right there, make sure it’s just right, then hit Done.

5. Loom will count you back in—and you’re back to recording like nothing happened.

No more backtracking. No more post-recording edits. Just record, rewind, and roll on.
