Free version produces virtually unusable content
The free trial adds a large watermark to the middle of the screen which makes the video virtually unusable. Most trials expire after a week or two, however the content you create with them can still be used.

Non-expiring trial available
The free trial never expires, however it will place a sizable "Demo Mode' watermark over the middle of the screen which makes the content unusable for anything other than trying it out.

Suitable for novices and experts alike
Start creating vanilla screencasts. Continue exploring a plethora of presentation and editing features. You won't ever grow out of this "shirt".

Jerryme's Experience
It's the best one among all the screen mirroring apps I have used. Actually, I'm a lover of mobile games. I always use ApowerMirror to mirror the screen of my gameplay to my PC.
