Free

A free alternative to
ShareX

ShareX is powerful and Windows only: there is no ShareX for Mac, and getting a link means picking an upload destination and living with its rules. Here the same capture-edit-link flow is free on macOS, Windows and in Chrome, and the link comes with a view counter out of the box.

What working on a screenshot looks like

What ShareX users get here

01

Mac and Chrome

ShareX has no Mac version and no browser extension that captures. Here the macOS app has the same editor as Windows, and the Chrome extension captures the tab or the whole page.

02

A link with no setup

In ShareX a link depends on the uploader you configured. Here Upload gives a short link in the clipboard and the page shows how many times it was opened. Nothing to configure.

03

Simple by default

Area, window, scrolling page, then arrows, boxes, text, step numbers and blur. The tools you need after every capture, without a workflow tree.

Frequently asked questions

Is there a free app like ShareX?
Yes, this one: a Chrome extension plus Windows and macOS apps. Area, window and scrolling full-page capture, arrows, blur, step numbering and a share link with a view counter, free and with no account.
Is it free like ShareX?
Yes. Capture, editor, clipboard, file and share link are free. There are no paid plans.
Is there a ShareX for Mac?
No, ShareX is Windows only. Here you get a macOS app with the same editor and hotkeys, plus the Chrome extension on any system.
What does ShareX do that this does not?
Screen recording, GIFs, OCR, custom uploaders and automation. If you rely on those, keep ShareX; for screenshots, annotations and a link you do not need them.
Can I capture a scrolling page?
Yes. The page scrolls itself and is stitched into one tall image, in Chrome and on the desktop.
Do I need an account?
No. Capture, edit, save and upload without an account.
Can I keep both installed?
Yes. They are separate apps with different hotkeys and do not interfere with each other.
