Included Apps
Shottr
Screenshot
Shottr is a compact macOS screenshot application for people who need to capture an image and immediately mark it up, measure it, or pull text from it. The official product page lists scrolling screenshots, OCR, annotation, and measurement among its tools, and it describes the app as native and optimized for Apple Silicon. The current official DMG is a universal build: the inspected 1.9.1 application has both Intel and Apple-silicon slices and sets macOS 10.15 as its minimum version. You can download the basic app from Shottr's site, while its purchase page describes paid Basic and Friends Club options as one-time purchases rather than subscriptions; a commercial-use license is required for commercial work. Shottr is most useful when the screenshot itself is disposable and the result needs light visual explanation, such as a marked interface issue, a size check, or copied text. Screen capture necessarily intersects with other apps and windows, so review the exact capture boundary before sharing. The vendor also documents that the app contacts its service for updates and license validation and sends optional telemetry that can be turned off in preferences. Treat captured images as potentially sensitive even when the editor feels quick and lightweight.

Screen Studio is a macOS screen recorder and editor for people who need a short product demo, tutorial, or visual explanation without assembling every camera move by hand. Its official product page describes automatic zoom around mouse actions, smoother cursor motion, adjustable cursor size, and a timeline for editing the recording; its guide documents recording selection, export controls, and visual background settings. The current official download page provides separate Apple Silicon and Intel builds and recommends macOS Ventura 13.1 or higher. Screen Studio now uses subscription access rather than its older one-time license path, and the official activation guide says legacy license keys only apply to old one-time purchases. It can still be useful to try the editor before paying because the download page says a person without an active plan can use the features but cannot export video files. The practical tradeoff is privacy and permission scope: on first launch the app requests Accessibility, camera, microphone, and Screen Recording access, and captured material can include more of a desktop or audio environment than intended. Select the narrowest recording target, review the result before sharing, and confirm the current plan and renewal terms before using it for client or team work.
