== Use other apps ==
You can control recording through [[CLI|command line interface]] which makes it possible to use other apps such as [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Task_Scheduler Windows Task Scheduler] to control recording.
For example, you can use [[CLI#Commands|start]] command and ''Windows Task Scheduler'' to automatically start recording at a specific time or day of the week. This is useful for complex scheduling scenarios which is not covered by the scheduling options provided by Screenbits.
<!--
== Countdown ==
Using the countdown feature, recording can get delayed after you attempt to start it:
Whenever you start or stop recording the app plays a notification sound. You can turn off or on this feature from '''Play sound notifications''' switch.
