• Create Shots from content on your clipboard, or import from your iPhone, iPad, or your disk.
• Re-capture effortlessly without having to painstakingly reframe the capture area.

Floating Shots

Shots float above all apps and windows, and follow you around when you change Spaces. Whatever you capture or record, it'll always be in sight.

• Scroll up and down within a shot to change its opacity
• Option-right-click and drag to pick colors
• Right-click barcodes to view their contents, copy or redact them
• Quickly redact text, barcodes and faces with a simple right-click
• Set up double-click actions for custom workflows, like reducing a shot's opacity and making it ignore mouseclicks in one go
• Drag shots to other apps, with or without markup, in the file format and quality of your choice

Editing Shots

• Crop, fold, rotate, resize, trim, and "de-retinize" shots
• Markup Shots with Freedraw, Rectangles, Ovals, Lines, Arrows, Stars, Checkmarks, X-Marks, Text, Smart numbered lists, Highlights and Redactions

(Markup can always be changed or removed entirely)

Shots Browser

ScreenFloat keeps a library of your captures, allowing you to tag, name, rate, favorite and organize them.

• Use folders to collect Shots
• Use Smart Folders to intelligently collect Shots by certain criteria, like if they contain faces or barcodes, or which device you captured them on
• Search for shots using the same criteria you use for smart folders (and search system-wide with Spotlight)
• Sync your library over iCloud

Tag Management

With the Tags Browser, you can manage your tags by favoriting, renaming, merging and deleting them

Drag'n'Drop, Exporting

• Export shots into different formats, quality levels, with or without markup, metadata, and more
