Hi, I’m the maker of Lens Pro.

Pick the window you want to record, hit Record, and get back to your notes. Lens keeps recording that window while you work in another app. Leave the source open and playing, and your Mac awake. Afterwards, trim the extra bits and make a smaller clip to send.

It also helps you find large photos and videos in Photos and choose supported items to make smaller. Lens replaces selected originals after confirmation; compression can affect quality, and changes sync through iCloud Photos when enabled. Keep separate originals if full quality matters. Smaller files may help you avoid a storage upgrade, but Lens doesn’t change your plan. Any money saving depends on your total usage and the cost of Lens.

Your first 5 credits are free. Paid packs or an optional monthly plan follow. No Lens account needed; macOS 14.6+.

Happy to hear which part would be useful to you.

Comment highlights

I’ve refreshed the Photos walkthrough with a seaside sample and a clearer look at each step: pick your items, choose the quality, read the replacement notice and check what was saved.

Watch the 59-second walkthrough:

Only the two named sample items were changed. The photo was generated for this walkthrough, and the video is a short pan made from it. Both were actually replaced in Photos, then exported to check their sizes. These samples don’t predict savings for your library; compression can affect quality, and no iCloud quota reduction was measured.

The filming build includes the Photos responsiveness fix submitted in 1.2.1, which is still awaiting App Store release. Your first 5 credits are free, with paid packs or an optional monthly plan afterwards.
