CleanShot 4.7 - Resize Tool, Smart Highlighter, Apply Background to All Screenshots

[@hml]

CleanShot at this point is better than many image editors! It’s crazy.

[@IsraelLucasSousaSilva]

The meaning of focusing on the user experience and listening to user feedback! Congrats, best app on Mac by far

[@VictorChavesVVBC]

This app is the embodiment of the concept of a gift that keeps on giving. Amazing work!

[@chrisdancy6191]

clean shot is the ONLY app I can't live without

[@busyworksbeats]

Is there a way to follow the cursor (zoom) while recording video?

[@rdr9999]

Hard to believe this app, which on the surface seems such a simple utility, can keep getting better-but it does. Great stuff!

[@mike35424]

I haven't renewed my license since I first bought CleanShot over 2 years ago. I finally updated today and wow you guys have been busy!

[@webjoe]

Probably the most useful tool I in my daily workflow. Thanks for all these nuance but incredibly thoughtful features that I now can't imagine using my Mac without it!

[@turn-me-later]

This guy deserves a Nobel Prize for saving people times!

[@PriscilaKlopper]

One of the best apps I've ever used… I love how you keep updating it to make it better. Thank you!

[@guscouto]

The usability of this app is insane, and it keeps getting better. Congrats and thank you!

[@LarryStone-q6r]

I use it 100s of times a day. Thank you for constantly improving this. Glad to throw more money at you.

[@ChrisGiordano]

This is a great update! The default preset was literally just something I was thnking about the other day. This is going to save me SO. MUCH. TIME!

[@CyberMew]

Some of the feature feels like they can be more in-depth. Also would be nice to have those shortcuts on screen eg Shift (assuming it is hardcoded). What are the roadmap like currently? It’s been like 8 months since the previous update and I am not really impressed by this update..(personal opinion because I don’t use these ones often)

[@Kitze]

this app is getting better and better, love it!

[@christophepas]

I'm so constantly impressed by the care you folks put in your product, massive thanks for your work!

[@蔡承諭-r4z]

A great team helped me fix the crash issue when typing text in Annotate using Traditional Chinese input in this update!

[@randre83]

Great job guys! CleanShot keeps getting better and better! Bravo!

[@CristianGRojasV]

Absolutely love your application! Found it past week and fall in love. Needed this for years!!!

[@AshleaCrane-vw7pp]

CleanShot X is the GOAT! I'll never use any other screenshot application ever again

[@SilouanWright]

The text highlighting is AMAZING. Excellent feature! I also use a lot of text so giving the block formatting is also excellent! I will be renewing. I sent some feature requests over via email (it seems like you covered some of them already!)

[@t.b.3511]

Best app ever.. thanks.

[@n8dotjs]

I love the format of these update videos. Very well done!

[@RobertGreel]

thank you for continuing to update! Love this app, use it everyday!

nice, can you recommend what we should buy to make screen recordings? There is no zoom option in your product so I assume since you are zooming in your video you must be using some better option?

[@sharpenmarketing]

THANK YOU! These are updates I've been waiting for. Thanks so much.

[@busyworksbeats]

Awesome app! I teach music production on KZbin and your app makes it so Easy to do vertical/horizontal videos at low CPU. WAYYYY better than OBS/Streamlabs ! 🔥

[@andrewjleonard]

Awesome work as always!! Only thing missing (for me personally) is support for capturing the currently active window.

[@humarazvi13]

I don't think I've ever loved an app this much. So many use cases, intuitive, beautiful, clean, easy to use! I use it every day, all day. The highlighting tool update is great. I'm not sure if it's just me, but often when I highlight, it looks like it's blurring out the text too much. Is there a way to change opacity? Thanks!

[@crabkilla]

I will die on the hill for Cleanshot X. My #1 tool hands down.

[@alexanderperisic7534]

awesome, been waiting for the default preset feature for a long time! thanks guys! great work! 🎉

[@CyanCooper]

Awesome update, love this app! For the next update, please just give us the tools to left/right/center justify the text no matter how many characters it has. Also rotation please!

[@bikrrr]

Love that you finally added image resizing! 🙌 Of course, I'm never satisfied: Please add support for appending a math operator and number in the Height and Width fields (similar to Figma, Sketch, etc.). This would make it much easier to resize high-DPI mobile screenshots to their logical resolution. For example, on an iPhone 15 Pro screenshot of 1179x2556, appending either field with "/3" to get its logical resolution of 393x852. Using percent doesn't work because one can enter exactly one-third…plus it's more clicks.

[@riOdariot]

Hello, are there plans to add autom/manual zoom animation while recording? Thanks for the great app

[@bryanjclark]

I use this app constantly and deeply cherish it. Thanks for the walkthrough!

[@unclecode]

Super into CleanShot! Been using it for ages, but tbh, I've got a wishlist: - Video wallpapers? Why only for screenshots? Unless "Shot" only means screenshots. - Zoom effect like in your latest update video. - Different layouts for webcam/screen recording.

[@borhiem]

Good updates. When are you going to add folders? Even loom has folders at this point.

[@deegobooster]

Good update. I'm wondering if an image border/centre snap feature could be implemented when adding multiple images to the edit window. Recently I had to combine many small square images into one image and it took a very long time with Cleanshot.

[@frankharris2499]

You have create a beautiful piece of software. Simply the best.

[@Subcide]

Text highlighting is super nice, great work. Any focus on recording features coming in future updates?

[@0001am]

Thank you for being an amazing company! This app makes my life much easier.

[@khanglvg]

this is an amazing update! many thanks :D I luv it !!

[@HeyNoah]

Awesome updates!!! 🙌🔥

[@vikram.SumerSingh]

You have such an amazing product that I will just buy the upgrade even if I don't need the new features right away!

[@DaveStewartLondon]

One of my favourite tools. And it's for screenshots! Well done 🥰

[@OccultTeachings]

Truly quality work , just alone on the smart highlighter feature & presentation of new features 👏🏽

[@canaldonepo]

Also want to say that this is one of the best Apps i've ever used. :)

[@mikerisner]

It's Matt! Thanks for the excellent walk-thru.

[@Krasniysharigg]

2:00 Does this work offline or does the text recognition happen somewhere online? This is an important issue when it comes to privacy.

[@CleanShotApp]

Great question! Text recognition doesn't require any internet and happens locally on your device.

[@Krasniysharigg]

@@CleanShotApp cool!

[@Daniel_Zalman]

Cleanshot is my most used app on my Mac..I simply love it!

[@mikkhait]

Great product. An avid user here. Thanks!

[@AbdullahYazbahar]

if u can add a feature for uploading to dropbox, ill completely switch to CSX. Because immediate upload to cloud services was “cant live without feature” for me atleast. (coming from sharex in windows)

[@aliace8992]

Shottr is free tool and have more advanced feature ? what's the advantange of cleanShot ?

[@uxniels]

I just love your work! Use this app daily several times 😀

[@Jan0711]

How did you do the video zoom in this video?

[@nsasha96]

Thank you! I have a suggestion: what if when you select the area you want to screenshot it could snap automatically to the borders of objects? I really think this would be a killer feature

[@CleanShotApp]

Thanks for sharing! You can also check out PixelSnap, which offers similar functionality and can be integrated with CleanShot: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eGTZpJeIqKqll9k

[@codyroberts2859]

Very nice work guys. Kudos.

[@AJmrtns]

I absolutely love this app. How can I request/suggest a feature?

[@CleanShotApp]

Feel free to reach us at [e-mail]!

[@chrisdancy6191]

Why is the latest update NEVER there when I got to my pro cloud account and download it? You guys make us super excited and then don't have the file there for us.

[@joshuapinter]

That Smart Highlighter would be worth a paid upgrade. Well done!

[@lluck]

i cant wait for this app to become a hellish subscription one day! Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@neylwalecki]

One of the best apps I've ever bought! 🙂

[@Finezzato]

any windows version in the foreseeable?

[@thedupy124]

On your site, it says that you can record videos in MP4, but I can't find the option to change the format. Does anyone know how to do this?

[@sjohn2924]

Thanks for the update, Please release these features for the next time - If I take 2 sccreenshots, instead of showing them in different windows, they should be displayed as tabs in the image editor. (tab feature) - Let's imagine that the tab feature comes in the image editor. If I want to edit 2 screenshots by dropping them on top of each other, I want to be able to grab one of the tabs and drop it on top of the other. - Let's imagine that the tab feature comes in the image editor. Select a part of the image in tab 1 (like taking a screenshot, like selecting an area in paint) and copy that area by doing control C, then paste it by doing control V after coming to the image in tab 2. This way I can add 2 different images together or overlap them. - Currently I can see two screenshots in 2 different windows because there is no tab feature. When I want to add one to other one, I add it by "Drag me", but it adds an automatic border to the screenshot I add later. To get rid of this border, I need to crop without overlapping the other screenshot. In short, I need to be able to remove the "border" without cropping it. - While working on a screenshot in the image editor, I would like to be able to clone the selected area in the same screenshot. For example, in this video I want to turn off the "Apple Event" text. Instead of taking a second screenshot on an empty white area and "drag me" to the first screenshot, I want to select an empty white area in the same screenshot and I want to clone it with Control C+V to cover the relevant area. (for example, the white area next to the apple logo) by darkening it with my mouse and clone that area by Control C and V and cover the "Apple Event" by this selected white square.

[@rzephyr]

incredible app, thank you so much for all your hard work!

[@toddlichtenwalter2041]

How do I get access to this nice editor? I downloaded the latest version (I think) and it looks nothing like this. I take a cleanshot and then click in the bottom left corner to bring up an editor, am I doing something wrong? Or is there a different version of the app I am not realizing?

[@CleanShotApp]

We wrote you an email to learn more about the issue!

[@alanwill]

The smart highlighter.... 😍😍😍😍🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@alalgue]

Awesome, what others app you have.??

[@CleanShotApp]

PixelSnap 2 and TopNotch! You can find them here: mtw.team

[@misiek7676]

I like the new "resize" functionality - it would be amazing if the next update could have also TARGET SIZE (example: 1GB, 4GB etc). Very often I have to upload a pic - and I want to post the best possible quality - but I do not know what resolution (px x px) - or % decrease will be enough. An additional window to enter desire SIZE/ WEIGHT would make resize perfect :)

[@oscklm]

The absolute best!

[@ChrisMessina]

Love the new highlight feature! It'd be EVEN BETTER if you added a brush-style that looked more organic (like an actual highlighter - a la Keynote)!

[@CleanShotApp]

Thanks for the suggestion!

[@facile-tech]

How can I annotate or highlight in a screen recording?

[@abdmdjr7387]

Hi team! If you can add the possibility to show pin only on one screen on macOs and not on all screens, will be great

[@ADHDOCD]

Why isn't anyone talking about its video recording functionality including computer audio?! 🤯 There are apps out there that cost $100s of dollars and are complicated. Cleanshot makes everything so simple!

[@twox16r]

image flip function, please..

[@ManuelBecker]

Great job!

[@luhrare]

Great app been using for few years

[@snatvb]

really cool features, unfourchentrly I have windows also and can't use it on both machine :(

[@FollowThatDale]

I don't know if there is another app that is as good as what it does as CleanShot.

[@enterprisingtech]

Background feature crashes Mac Sonoma 😢

[@CleanShotApp]

Thank you for bringing this to our attention! Please reach out to us at [e-mail] with more details, and our support team will assist you in resolving this issue.

[@ThierryLalinne]

[@Daniel_Zalman]

0:53 That's what she said!

[@KazrBrekker]

Not on App Store though

[@SilverSheild]

so you have to pay again for getting it again for another device using a activation code.

[@KazrBrekker]

@@SilverSheild That's why I use a combination of two apps - ScreenFloat and Text Sniper both combined does the same job as Cleanshot

[@CherylFlinn]

Wow! Thanks!

[@dberk023]

I wish you guys would put in an auto timer. Like if you record something for an hour and leave the house or go to sleep it wouldn't just keep recording and fill up your storage. You can set it for 1 hour and will shut off. Otherwise, it's great. I use it everyday.

[@CleanShotApp]

Thanks for the suggestion! Feel free to reach us at [e-mail] if you want to share more feedback.

awsome ! kee it up

[@DCBlogdev]

amazing!!

[@Burrijw]

🐐baaaa

[@davidhoang2527]

amazing, pls support upload any filetype by drag to the CleanshotX menu item, and also copy the color code of the pixel under cross-hair. those features are really appriciated

[@rmasoni]

Great app!

[@TheWion]

Thanks

[@redfastpony]

This is the way.

[@nxmiji]

we need zooming on video editing

[@zeefear8043]

Через несколько лет, будет достаточно иметь всего одну программу CleanShot, чтобы закрывать все свои потребности )

[@hanhan6139]

My English is not very good, I hope this program can support Chinese interface🥰🥰🥰

[@-musiclee-]

i still can't believe that Clean Shot X, cannot record, and follow your "recording" window, if you move it, there are many apps , cheaper, that do this, even free ones,

[@CleanShotApp]

Thanks for the suggestion! Feel free to reach us at [e-mail] if you want to share more feedback.

[@SVIP]

Very nice, but I need to pay $19 to upgrade.

[@FrankAn-io7bz]

Me too , I still decided not to upgrade, I rarely use these features.

[@tamilfilmlovertamizhan9802]

samsung user here feeling ... oh now only u guys come here 😂😂😂😂
