What you get

You get screenshots focused on what you need to show.

With Snipit, you can turn part of your screen, a single app window, or your entire display into a screenshot. You can isolate a window without including the other windows around it, then crop the result if you captured more than you need. That gives you a focused image for explaining a problem, illustrating instructions, or keeping a visual reference.

You can draw on your capture or highlight the details you want someone to notice, rather than describing where to look. When you need to capture a dropdown, menu, or hover state, you can set a 3-, 5-, or 10-second delay and use that time to prepare the screen.

You can use a limited set of features for free. Additional features require a monthly subscription, so you should check whether the free version covers your screenshot needs.

  • Show only what matters

    You can capture a selected area or one app window without including the rest of your screen.

  • Trim unwanted edges

    You can crop after capturing to remove extra content and keep attention on the relevant detail.

  • Make details easier to spot

    You can draw and highlight directly on screenshots to show someone where to look.

  • Prepare before the capture

    You get up to 10 seconds to open a menu or reveal a hover state before the screenshot is taken.

Best for

  • You need screenshots to document software problems
  • You explain steps with annotated images
  • You capture menus or hover states

Skip it if

You do not need another screenshot app if your existing tools already cover capturing, cropping, markup, and timed shots.
