Top 3 Pro Screen Shot Apps for Mac (CleanShot X, Shottr, Skitch) | ScreenShotHow
Looking for more features than the built-in Mac screenshot tool? Discover the top 3 pro apps for scrolling capture, redaction, and annotation on macOS.
Mac power users often turn to third-party apps for extra features. Here are the top picks for pro workflows.
1. CleanShot X (The Best Overall)
CleanShot X replaces the default shortcuts and adds a scrollable history, built-in cloud hosting, and the ability to “pin” a screenshot on top of windows while you work.
2. Shottr (Fast and Free)
Shottr is incredibly fast and includes professional features like auto-redaction (hiding sensitive info), measuring distances between elements, and scrolling captures.
3. Skitch (The Classic)
Skitch by Evernote is still great for quick arrows and highlights. It is famous for its “pixelate” tool which is perfect for blurring out faces or credit card numbers.
