About Xnapper
Xnapper is a native macOS screenshot app for producing screenshots that are ready to share. It balances the capture automatically, picks a background colour, and can redact emails, credit card numbers, IP addresses and API keys with one click. Text in a screenshot can be selected and copied using the built-in macOS vision engine.
It also includes window capture, arrows, shapes, text and blur, screenshot history, social media sizes and ratios, presets and image compression. The app is free to use, and a one-time payment removes the watermark.
