Greenshot
Greenshot is a screenshot capture and annotation tool originally developed for Windows that allows users to quickly capture selected regions, windows, or full screens. It includes basic editing capabilities like highlighting, arrows, and text annotations, making it useful for creating documentation, tutorials, and sharing visual information. The Mac version was released in 2017 as a paid app through the Mac App Store, but it's a separate development from the free Windows version with significantly fewer features. Many users find the Mac version lacking compared to its Windows counterpart, with limited editing tools and poor reviews indicating it feels abandoned.
Suggested Replacements
1 suggestionThe Mac version of Greenshot appears to be abandoned and severely lacks the features of the Windows version, with consistently poor user reviews. For a better native Mac alternative, consider Shottr, which is specifically designed for macOS with Apple Silicon support and offers fast, high-quality screenshots with various capture modes including scrolling screenshots. Other solid alternatives include the built-in macOS Screenshot app (Shift+Cmd+5) for basic needs, or Snagit for more advanced annotation features, though it's a premium option. Avoid the current Mac App Store version of Greenshot as it's outdated and feature-poor.
