About Shottr
Shottr is a screenshot app for macOS built for speed. It captures a selected area quickly and opens an editor where you can mark it up before saving or sharing.
What it does
Shottr captures a selected area or a long scrolling page, then gives you tools for text, arrows, highlights, blur and pixelation. Its text recognition reads text from any area you select and copies it to the clipboard, and it can also read QR codes. You can pin screenshots as floating windows, and a screen ruler measures distances in pixels.
