Every kind of capture
Grab a region, an object, the full display, or a long scrolling page, then send it to Image Annotator when it needs arrows, labels, blur, or redaction.
Capture ToolsCapture & Codes
Capture, record, and dress up your screen.
Foldout's capture tools grab regions, windows, full screens, and scrolling pages, mark up screenshots, record cinematic screen demos, beautify a plain screenshot, read and build QR and barcodes, and pull text out of images - the whole screen-and-codes workflow in one place.

Questions
Before you try Capture Tools
Does screen capture need permission?
macOS may ask for screen recording permission the first time a capture or recording tool is used.
Do recordings show the controls?
No. The recorder's on-screen controls are kept out of the final video.
Does OCR run locally?
Yes. Text recognition happens on your Mac.
