Editor – annotate and mark up screenshots

The editor opens right after every capture and lets you mark up what matters: arrows, rectangles, ellipses, freehand, text and numbered badges. Redact sensitive parts with blur or pixelate. No second app needed — mark up, copy and share in one flow.

What can the editor do?

• Shapes: arrows, rectangles, ellipses and freehand lines to point at things.
• Text & numbers: labels and numbered badges for step-by-step guides.
• Redaction: blur or pixelate names, addresses, amounts.
• OCR: read and copy text in the image with text recognition.

Why a built-in editor?

A screenshot alone often says too little. An arrow, a number or a blurred area makes the point clear in seconds. Because the editor is built in, you need no second tool and no detour via the disk.

Step by step

1. Take a screenshot — the editor opens automatically.
2. Pick a tool (arrow, text, number, redact).
3. Drag or click on the image to place the markup.
4. Copy the result with ⌘C, or share/save it directly.

Tips & tricks

• Numbered badges are perfect for guides: 1, 2, 3 instead of long explanations.
• Redact confidential parts before you share — not after.
