What Is MagicHow, and for Which Tasks Can I Use It in My Team?

MagicHow is a software tool for the creation of guides, SOPs, manuals, tutorials, and other instructional documents. You can use it for automated documentation of the processes in your company.

MagicHow can be useful for documenting a large variety of tasks across different professional domains, such as HR, financial, project, and marketing management. Here are some examples of tasks for which you can create guiding documentation with MagicHow to enhance the task’s performance:

  • the SOP on how to create a lead in Salesforce;

  • a guide on how to edit a view-only file in Figma by duplicating it;

  • a manual on how to rename a repository in GitHub;

  • a tutorial on how to record an invoice payment in QuickBooks online;

  • an instruction on how to onboard a new hire in a Human Resources Management System (HRMS).

For each of these tasks and for all the others associated with using software, you can create guidance documentation that describes processes step-by-step with the help of illustrations and annotations. The documentation is created automatically: while the process is performed in a browser or a desktop or laptop application, a tool makes screenshots, composes titles for them, and compiles screenshots into a comprehensive guide, suitable for posting in a blog, sending via email, embedding into a web site, or saving as PDF.

Do I Need Special Skills to Create Guides With MagicHow?

No, you don't need any skills to use MagicHow as a process documentation tool. To use the tool efficiently, you need to install it and start recording a process. You can create your first guide using MagicHow intuitively. Alternatively, you can read a short manual to familiarize yourself with the wider set of features.

On Which Devices MagicHow is Available?

You can use MagicHow on desktops and laptops. The application offers two versions: one for desktop use and another for web browsers. By using both versions, you can generate guides, manuals, and other instructional documentation for any software installed on your computer, as well as for browser extensions. The features of both versions meet all users’ requirements related to creating guiding documentation. Moreover, both versions boast intuitive interfaces that enable the creation of comprehensive visual guides without the need for specialized skills.

How Can I Create a Guide With MagicHow?

To create a guide with MagicHow, you should follow the process yourself after turning on the tool. Go through the process while MagicHow makes screenshots, creates titles for them, and compiles the screenshots into a full-fledged document. The tool automatically breaks down a process into logical steps; hence, you don’t need to bother about your guides’ structure. You can follow your own pace while recording a process, in contrast to recording a tutorial video, where halts and pauses are undesirable. Despite the automated nature of the tool, you can customize your documents at any time by changing screenshot order, blurring confidential data, emanding titles, adding annotations, and modifying guides’ visual style. As a final step, you can share your documents with your colleagues, trainees, and clients, adjusting the access settings to suit the target audience.

How Can I Share Instructional Documents With My Audience?

In MagicHow, there are several ways to provide accessibility to the created documents, including:

  • sending via email;

  • saving as PDF;

  • saving in the HTML or Markdown formats;

  • embedding on a web site.
