In short

Markshot is a macOS productivity app for capturing and annotating part of the screen. Press a shortcut, drag over an area, mark it up with pen, arrow, shapes, or text, and press Return to copy it at full Retina resolution. It stands out for collecting no data and keeping screenshots on the Mac unless the user shares them.

About

Markshot is the fastest way to show someone exactly what you mean.

Press one shortcut and your screen freezes. Drag over the part you want, mark it up right where it is, and press Return - it is on your clipboard, ready to paste into a chat, an email, a document or a bug report. No editor window to open, no files to clean up afterwards.

SELECT • Press ⇧⌘2 anywhere, or click the Markshot icon in the menu bar • Drag to select any area; drag the handles to resize it, or drag inside to move it • The live size readout shows the exact pixel dimensions • Works across multiple displays

MARK IT UP • Pen, line, arrow, rectangle, ellipse and highlighter • Text labels, right on the screenshot • Eight colours and three line weights • Hold Shift for straight 45° lines, perfect squares and circles • Undo with ⌘Z • One-key tool shortcuts: P, L, A, R, E, H, T

SHARE IT • Return or ⌘C copies at full Retina resolution • ⌘S saves as PNG or JPEG • Share straight to AirDrop, Messages, Mail and more • Esc cancels - nothing is kept

MADE FOR THE MENU BAR • Lives quietly in the menu bar, no Dock icon • Choose your own capture shortcut in Settings • Optional: open at login • Capture the whole screen to the clipboard in one click

PRIVATE BY DESIGN Markshot collects no data. There are no accounts, no analytics and no uploads - your screenshots stay on your Mac unless you share them yourself.

MARKSHOT PRO One optional purchase, no subscription: • Pixelate - hide passwords, emails and faces before you share • Numbered steps - click to drop 1, 2, 3… markers for step-by-step guides • Capture history - every screenshot you copied, saved or shared, ready to grab again

Markshot needs the Screen Recording permission to take a screenshot. It uses it only at the moment you start a capture, to take a single still image.
