Key Features

01

Flexible Capture

Capture the full display, a selected region, or a specific window from a shortcut-first workflow. Multi-display selection, hover-state preservation, and customizable hotkeys help you grab the exact moment.

02

Screen Recording

Record the full display, a region, or a window with system audio, microphone input, and flexible MP4, MOV, or GIF export. GIF resolution and FPS controls keep recordings share-ready.

03

OCR & Calculation OCR

Extract text from any screen area, or capture a math expression and let Calculation OCR evaluate it, format the result, and copy it to the clipboard. OCR runs fully on-device with Apple Vision.

04

Powerful Annotations

Explain screenshots with arrows, shapes, rich text, highlights, freehand strokes, pixelation, and an auto-counting number tool that stamps 1, 2, 3… as you click. Shift-click to multi-select and restyle annotations at once; settings stay in sync across editor windows.

05

Crop, Paste & Pixelate

Paste images from the clipboard with ⌘V, then move, resize, and crop them right on the canvas. Crop with a rule-of-thirds guide, pixelate sensitive details — even over pasted images — and pin the editor above other windows.

06

Fast Workflow

Move smoothly from capture to clipboard, save location, share sheet, or history. Batch history operations, user-chosen save folders, and PNG, JPEG, TIFF, GIF, MP4, and MOV outputs keep the workflow flexible.
