Lightshot Screenshot
Lightshot Screenshot is a lightweight screenshot and image-capture utility for macOS that lets users quickly snap, annotate, and share portions of the screen. It provides tools for drawing, highlighting, blurring sensitive information, and adding text or shapes to captured images before uploading them to a cloud service or saving locally. The app sits in the menu bar for rapid access and is popular among developers, designers, and anyone who frequently needs to capture and share visual content.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionWe could not find reliable information about whether Lightshot Screenshot has a native Apple Silicon build, and no community sightings are currently available to confirm either way. Contact the developer (Skillbrains) directly to ask whether a native Apple Silicon version is available or planned. This is important because Apple will remove Rosetta 2 support in macOS 28 (September 2028), after which an Intel-only build of Lightshot will no longer launch on new versions of macOS. If the vendor confirms no native build is in development, consider switching to a natively supported alternative such as Cleanshot X, Skitch, or the built-in macOS screenshot tool (Shift+Command+4 or Command+Shift+5) — all of which run natively on Apple Silicon and offer similar annotation and sharing features.
