Frequently asked questions
- How do I take a screenshot online? Click Take a screenshot, choose the screen, window or tab to capture, and snap. The image opens in the editor where you can crop, add arrows, boxes, numbered steps, text, highlights and blur, then download the PNG or share a link.
- Can I annotate the screenshot? Yes: arrows, rectangles, ellipses, lines, text labels, numbered steps, highlighter and pixelated blur for private details, with undo and redo. Pick a colour and stroke width per shape.
- Can I add a browser window or phone frame and a background? Yes. Styles include a macOS-style browser window with an address bar, a phone bezel, solid colours and gradient backgrounds, padding, rounded corners and a shadow, in 16:9, 9:16, 1:1 or 4:5. It is the CleanShot and Xnapper look, in the browser.
- Can the AI take the screenshot for me? Yes. Tell your agent "take a screenshot of our pricing page with the Pro plan boxed" and it opens the page in its own browser, captures it, measures the exact position of each callout and publishes the styled image with a share link.
- Does it work on Mac, Windows and Chromebook? Yes. It uses the browser’s screen-share permission, so it works on any desktop OS with Chrome, Edge, Brave, Opera or Firefox. On phones, use the share sheet to upload an existing screenshot to the editor.
