CleanShot X Screenshots

The image-editor which appears to make annotations on screen-captures.

The way how it should work when capturing a image, is adjustable.

Smart trick, hiding or replacing automatically the wallpaper and icons when capturing.

Keyboard shortcuts, a lot of keyboard shortcuts.

Quick Access stores images on the left or right on the screen. Until you decide what you want to make with them. (save, upload, edit, copy or just delete)

Nice to have, you can even record your keyboard-storkes. Very nice to show which hotkeys was pressed.

The app offers also it's own cloud-storage.

Nice advanced configuration, from self-timer to filename pattern.

Custom patterns for filenames are also even possible.

Just to see on which version these screenshots was captured.

You can't get a trial-version of this app and skip it. But I can say, you will mourn afterwards if you just ignored it.

At least I almost did. 30 bucks for a capturing tool, without a trial-version? This made me really sceptical!

But after...

Capto_ (to less features, no further development)_
SnagIt (slow performance, to heavy)
Monosnap (changed to subscription model and seems only focused on that, instead improving)

... When it comes to good looking, lightweight and smart screen-capturing tools with good annoations Cleanshot X has become my new favourite screen capturing tool.

Everyone who loves to make fast annotations, screenshots and videos... you should think about buying it. The creator of this app offers 30days money back if you are not satisfied.

But I can tell, currently Cleanshot X is hard not to satisfy.
