Everything in one small app

Built for the moment you need a picture of your screen

No sign-in, no clutter. Each tool is one key away, and your captures stay on your machine unless you choose to share one.

Any region, window or monitor

Drag a box, click a window, or grab a whole screen. Multi-monitor and high-DPI aware.

Scrolling capture

Long pages, chat threads and documents stitched into one tall picture, automatically.

Annotate

Arrows, boxes, numbered steps, blur and text, in your colours. Undo as far back as you like.

OCR text

Copy the words out of any picture, error dialog or video frame. Straight to your clipboard.

Colour picker

Hover any pixel for its HEX, RGB and HSL. Click to copy in the format your tool wants.

Share links

One click uploads a capture and copies a link. It expires when you say, and you can delete it any time.

Pin to screen

Keep a capture floating above every window while you work from it. Resize, fade, and close.

Hotkeys

Every action has a key. Change any of them, and start a capture from any app without touching the mouse.

What a share link looks like

A clean page with your picture, nothing else

When you share a capture, the app uploads it here and gives you a short link such as screen.xerogent.com/s/k7Qz3pLm9A. Whoever opens it sees the picture on a dark page with its title, date and size, a Download button and a Copy link button.

  • Expires after 1, 7, 30 or 90 days, your choice when you share. Then it is gone from the server.
  • Delete it early from the app's history: only you hold the delete key for each share.
  • No account, no tracking pixels, no list of your shares anywhere but on your own machine.

Hotkeys out of the box

Fast by default, yours to change

These are the defaults. Every one of them can be changed in Settings, and each works from any app.
