Shottr

Shottr is a lightweight Mac screenshot application built specifically for professionals who work with pixel-perfect designs. It captures screenshots in milliseconds and provides a comprehensive set of annotation tools including text, freehand drawing, highlights, and spotlights. The app handles scrolling captures of entire web pages or conversations, recognizes text through OCR for copying non-selectable content, and includes pixel-level editing features for removing or blurring sensitive information.

What sets Shottr apart is its focus on precision and efficiency. It includes built-in measurement tools like a screen ruler for checking distances between elements and a color picker for capturing exact colors. The app is optimized for Apple silicon and weighs only 2.3MB, making it significantly faster and lighter than built-in Mac screenshot tools. It also supports features like image overlays, pinned floating screenshots, and customizable save locations for better workflow organization.

Designers, front-end engineers, and mobile developers benefit most from Shottr's pixel-accurate tools. They use it for creating annotated design references, measuring UI components, documenting bugs with precise measurements, and preparing clean screenshots for presentations or documentation. The OCR functionality is particularly useful for extracting text from error messages or interface elements that can't be selected normally.
