SnapCopy

A faster screenshot for Mac

Capture it.
Paste it.

SnapCopy puts a selected area straight on your clipboard—ready for AI chats, WhatsApp, Discord, Messages, email and anywhere else you paste images.

How it works

Select. Capture. Share.

  1. 1
    Place the box

    Drag inside it to move. Pull any edge or corner to resize, or drag outside it to draw a new box.

  2. 2
    Capture it

    Take a screenshot immediately, use the timer, or record five seconds of silent video.

  3. 3
    Paste into your app

    SnapCopy closes and your screenshot or .mov file is already on the clipboard.

Ready for the next capture

Your last area, remembered.

SnapCopy restores your last captured area when you open it again. Choose SnapCopy > Reset Capture Area or press Command-R to clear the saved area and return to the original centred selection.

Works on macOS 13 Ventura or newer. Paste screenshots into apps that accept images, and silent .mov recordings into apps that accept video files.

Made to stay out of the way

Nothing to tidy up afterwards.

No preview window, no Desktop capture folder and no account. Your capture stays on your Mac and goes only where you paste it.
