CleanShot X
Capture your Mac's screen like a pro.

CleanShot X is a feature-rich screenshot and screen recording application exclusively for macOS. It offers tools for annotating screenshots, scrolling capture, OCR text recognition, background customization, and cloud sharing via CleanShot Cloud. The app is designed to replace the default macOS screenshot utility with a more powerful, workflow-friendly experience.
Users capture screenshots or record their screen via a native Mac overlay, then annotate, edit, and share results instantly to CleanShot Cloud or other apps.
