shottr

Shottr is a small, fast, and feature-rich screenshot application developed specifically for macOS. It's designed to be a highly efficient replacement for the built-in macOS screenshot tools, offering powerful annotation, scrolling capture, and editing features right out of the box.

 Key Features of Shottr

Shottr goes beyond basic screen capture with several professional-grade tools:

• Scrolling Screenshot: This is one of its most popular features. It allows you to capture an entire scrollable webpage or document that extends beyond the visible screen area into a single, seamless image.

• Pixelate/Blur Sensitive Data: You can quickly blur or pixelate parts of the screenshot to hide private or sensitive information (passwords, email addresses, etc.) instantly.

• Annotation Tools: Includes all necessary tools for marking up your captures: arrows, boxes, text, lines, and highlighting.

• Ruler and Measuring Tool: A unique and valuable tool for designers and developers. It lets you measure the distance in pixels between any two objects or elements on the screen.

• Magnifier: Features a built-in magnifier tool that pops up when you select an area, ensuring you capture exactly the pixels you intend to capture.

• Color Picker: You can use the built-in color picker to identify the exact hex code or RGB value of any color visible on your screen.

• Automatic Cropping: Shottr can automatically detect and crop unnecessary empty space around the edges of a screenshot.

• Free to Use: One of its biggest draws is that it is often offered as a free utility for Mac users.

Shottr is highly praised for its minimal footprint, speed, and powerful tools that are indispensable for web developers, UI/UX designers, and anyone who frequently takes and annotates screenshots.
