Capture. Annotate. Done.
One shortcut, drag a region, then decide on the spot: copy it, save it, or explain it with arrows, text and numbered steps. ScreenShotty is the screenshot tool the Mac has been missing.
Three steps. No detours.
No trip to the desktop, no file you have to hunt down first.
Press a shortcut
⌥ ⇧ 4 freezes the screen – open menus and tooltips stay exactly as they were.
Pick an area
Drag with a magnifier and pixel readout, or just click a window. Arrow keys nudge pixel by pixel.
Choose where it goes
A menu at the pointer with a preview: 1 editor, 2 clipboard, 3 folder – and you are back to work.
Everything a good screenshot needs.
Capture, explain, redact, share – in an app that feels like part of macOS.
Every kind of capture
Region, window, screen, all screens, the last region again – and a timer for menus that only open on click.
Annotate like a pro
Rectangle, ellipse, line, arrow, freehand, text, speech bubbles and automatically counting step numbers.
Hide what is private
Pixelate or blur email addresses, names and account numbers before a screenshot leaves your Mac.
Guide the eye
Text marker, spotlight, grayscale outside and a magnifier for details – so everyone sees right away what matters.
Image tools
Crop, rotate, resize, border, drop shadow and the torn paper edge – with undo for every step.
Save it your way
PNG, JPEG, HEIC, TIFF or PDF. Or as a ScreenShotty document that keeps every annotation editable.

Questions
Which Mac do I need?
ScreenShotty runs on macOS 27 or later on Macs with Apple silicon (M1 and newer).
Why does macOS ask for “Screen Recording”?
Without this permission no app may see what is on your screen. ScreenShotty only uses it at the moment you start a capture yourself. The help page shows how to grant it.
Does ScreenShotty replace the macOS screenshot tool?
No, both work side by side. ScreenShotty uses its own shortcuts (⌥⇧ instead of ⌘⇧), and you can change them freely.
Can I change annotations later?
Yes – save as a “ScreenShotty Document”. When you open it again, every arrow, text and blur is still editable on its own.
