CleanShot X

CleanShot X is an all-in-one screenshot and screen recording application designed for macOS. It goes far beyond basic screen capture by offering professional editing tools, cloud storage, and intelligent features that save time and improve the quality of your captures.

You can take screenshots of specific areas, full screens, windows, or even entire scrolling pages. The app includes a built-in editor with annotation tools like arrows, text, shapes, highlights, and blur effects. It can also hide desktop icons automatically, add custom backgrounds, and freeze your screen to capture tricky elements like dropdown menus.

For screen recordings, CleanShot X lets you create videos or GIFs with system audio, mouse clicks, and keyboard shortcuts visible. Everything integrates smoothly with its cloud service for instant sharing via links.
