Precision area capture
Drag to select any region of any screen. Pixel-perfect, instant, no menus to navigate.
Drag to snip any part of your screen, mark it up with a full annotation toolkit, and copy or share — without leaving your workflow.
Requires macOS 13 Ventura or later · Apple Silicon & Intel
The built-in macOS screenshot tool captures images but gives you almost nothing for annotation. Synapse's screen snip captures any region and opens it instantly in a full editor — draw with a pen, highlight in color, add arrows pointing to what matters, drop in numbered stamps, and add text callouts. When you're done, copy or share with one click.
