What Snippy Snip is
Snippy Snip is a native Mac app for capturing screenshots, annotating them, and recording the screen. It can capture a region, a window, or the full display, with an optional 3-, 5-, or 10-second timer. Annotation tools include a pen, highlighter, arrows, shapes, text, numbered callouts, crop, undo, and zoom. Screen recordings can include a camera overlay, pause and resume, and be previewed before saving as video or GIF. A capture goes to the clipboard when opened and is recopied as edits are made. Images can be saved as PNG or JPEG at full Retina quality; Pro adds export-size presets for ChatGPT and Claude. The app shares through the macOS share sheet, and the maker describes assigning its capture shortcut to a mouse button through Logi Options+. The maker says there is no telemetry, analytics, or account requirement, and captures stay on the Mac unless copied, saved, or shared. It requires macOS 13 Ventura or later and supports Apple Silicon and Intel Macs. The Free plan costs nothing. Pro is listed at $19 a month, billed as a one-time payment, and can be used on up to three Macs.
