Frequently asked questions

CatchScreen is a screenshot and annotation app. Capture an area, a window, your whole screen or a long scrolling page, mark it up with arrows, shapes, text, highlights and blur, then copy it or save it as a PNG or JPG.

No. CatchScreen is made for screenshots only — still images you can annotate and share in seconds.

The Mac app (Apple Silicon) is in early access. A Windows app is coming soon. You can use the web editor in any modern browser today, and a Chrome and Edge extension is in early access.

In the Mac app, choose Scrolling Capture and select the area you want — for example an article or a chat. CatchScreen scrolls that area for you, step by step, and joins everything into one tall image. It stops at the bottom, or whenever you click Stop & Edit. If the page is unclear (for example it keeps changing), it pauses and tells you instead of guessing.

No. Screenshots are processed on your own device. CatchScreen doesn't upload them, store them on a server or send them to any service. They stay in memory until you copy, save or close them.

macOS requires this permission for any app that takes screenshots. Despite the name, CatchScreen never records video — it only reads the screen at the moment you take a screenshot.

macOS only lets an app scroll other apps with Accessibility permission. CatchScreen uses it for one thing: scrolling the area you selected. If you'd rather not grant it, you can scroll by hand instead.

No. When you copy or save, blurred, pixelated and blacked-out areas are replaced in the image itself — the original details aren't hidden underneath.

You can open PNG, JPG and WebP images, and save as PNG or JPG at the original size. There are never any watermarks.

Windows is coming soon. We'll make it available once a Windows build has been fully tested.
