Screenshot app for Mac Free
A free screenshot tool for macOS lives in the menu bar and waits for a hotkey: an area, a window or a whole screen on any display. The editor opens right away, and the result goes to the clipboard, to a file or to a short link. No sign-up.
What the Mac screenshot app does
Always in the menu bar
There is no main window: the icon at the top of the screen is the whole app. It starts with the system and waits for a hotkey without taking a Dock slot.
Area, window or screen
Drag a frame, pick a single window or take the whole display: the screenshot is taken where you work, on any connected screen.
Annotations and a link
Arrows, boxes, numbering, text and blur go onto the frame, then to the clipboard, to a file on disk or to a short link to a view page.
