    A little bit heavy but it has super cool features. Easy and fast screenshoting in mac. Instantly you can draw nice arrows and text. Also you can use smart feature that detects things like text box, text itself, images, bars, and it makes separate elements from those things and then it allows you to move them. So when you want to show your developer where should something go, then it is more easy to do so.
