Capture exactly what you mean.
Press ⌃⌥A and drag — or just hover a window or a button and click. InSnap finds the edges for you, then gets out of the way.

macOS 14.4 or later · Apple Silicon · Windows version in development

From a quick screenshot to a polished walkthrough — one small app, one set of hotkeys.
Press ⌃⌥A and drag — or just hover a window or a button and click. InSnap finds the edges for you, then gets out of the way.
Rectangles, curved arrows, pen, marker, text, numbered steps, mosaic and blur — drawn right on the capture. Then copy, save, or pin it on top of everything.

Drop it on a gradient, color, photo or blurred backdrop. Set padding, corner radius and shadow, pick an aspect ratio, or stitch several images into one.

Start Step Recording, do the task, stop. Every click becomes a step with a screenshot, a marker and a title you can edit — then export to HTML or PDF.
Capture a region with system audio, microphone and camera. The editor zooms into your clicks automatically and adds cursor effects and keystroke overlays.

A searchable history of screenshots, videos, GIFs and guides — with tags, favorites and on-device text search, so you can find an image by what’s written in it.

The details that make a screenshot tool feel right.
Select a region, scroll the page, and InSnap stitches a seamless long screenshot.
Float any capture above your windows. Scale it, fade it, or let clicks pass through.
Copy text out of any screenshot. Recognition runs locally — nothing is uploaded.
A magnifier, a color picker and exact selection sizes in real pixels.
Capture, record, pin and open history from anywhere. Every shortcut is yours to change.
Upload a capture and copy a link with an expiry date and optional password (InSnap Cloud).
A native look that follows your system appearance.
No Dock icon, no clutter. Always one hotkey away.
The interface follows your system language, or pick one in Settings.
