• App alternatives to Bartender and CleanShotX

  I like xnip for screen shots. It doesn't do video captures but can take a variety of screen capture types, can do scrolling captures, and has built-in annotations. It can even annotate other images pasted from the clipboard and costs 1/2 of what CleanshotX does. Source: almost 3 years ago

• I just finished a screenshot app (macOS) for people who care about their pixels. Have a few questions in comments.

  The fact that it calculates the distances for you instead of manually putting lines is amazing. it's like Xnip but with more features. Love that it's written in appkit as well! Will give it a try :). Source: almost 3 years ago

• Some amazing macOS apps I use every day

  Xnip is another good one. There is a free version with fewer features and a paid one. It supports built in annotation. If you need bare bones screen shot abilities for free, Macupdate shows another program called Menu Snappr that looks promising: https://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/63398/menu-snappr-ii.

• Show HN: I built a free in-browser Llama 3 chatbot powered by WebGPU

  I’m just using CleanShotX [0] which is an awesome image annotation tool for macOS. It’s way better than the built-in tool that macOS comes with. You can also record as a gif for video which is nice, I use it often to make guides for my day job and my business. [0] https://cleanshot.com. - Source: Hacker News / 24 days ago

• How do people create those sleek looking demos for startups?

  I built the demo video for https://plandex.ai myself using CleanShot X (https://cleanshot.com/), Adobe Premiere Pro, an effect I bought in Adobe's marketplace, some AppleScript automation, and music from SoundStripe (https://soundstripe.com/). It was my first time using all these tools. It took me a couple days to make the video. Premier is a bit of a beast, but by just asking ChatGPT how to do everything, I was... - Source: Hacker News / 26 days ago

• Show HN: Simple tool built for my manager is now becoming its own startup

  Not the person you’re replying to but CleanShotX [0] is my favorite tool for this. Yes macOS has improved their screenshot annotation tools but they suck compared to CleanShotX. I take way more screenshots now to covey information and it’s invaluable to quickly explain a UI. I make guides for work or my clients with it all the time. I use it to highlight the button they need to click, label “1”, “2”, “3”, for the... - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago
