About HyperSnap
HyperSnap is a long-running Windows screenshot utility. It captures a region, a window or a whole scrolling page, and can delay a shot so a dropdown menu stays open. Arrows, labels and highlights are added in the same window, and images can be cropped before sharing.
Text recognition (OCR) copies on-screen text you cannot select, and it works in the unlicensed version too. Version 10 added screen recording with a built-in MP4 editor for trimming pauses and adding notes. All features can be tried before buying, but unlicensed images carry a stamp.

- Annotation and cropping in the same window
