Screenshots, the way they should be.
Press. Drag. It’s already saved, already copied, and already in your hand.
Press, drag, let go — then carry it straight into an email.
Snipshot
No window to find. No folder to choose. No Save button to hunt for. One keystroke and it happens three times over.
A dated PNG on your Desktop, the instant you let go.
Screenshot 2026-09-23 at 14-30-12.pngAlready on your clipboard, ready to paste anywhere.
Waiting in the corner for about six seconds, in case you want to drag it somewhere.
The thumbnail carries the file and the image at once, so it lands in apps that take dropped files and apps that only take a pasted picture.
Hover it over an app’s taskbar button and that app comes forward, so you can drop into a window that wasn’t even open.
The defaults mirror the Mac ones. Change them to anything you like, whenever you like.
If something else already owns a combination, Snipshot says so and keeps the one that works.
The overlay covers all your monitors at once, and a selection can cross the gap between two of them. Captures come out at true resolution, so a screen at 150% scaling gives you the full-size image.
No account, no sign-in, no telemetry, no update check. There is no networking code in it at all. Your screenshots go to your Desktop and your clipboard, and nowhere else.
It sits in the tray and waits. One icon holds manual capture, your shortcuts, the save folder and a start-with-Windows switch.
A new capture clears the last thumbnail first, so yesterday’s screenshot never turns up inside today’s.
No licence key, no trial, no upsell, nothing bundled in the installer. It installs just for you, so Windows never asks for an administrator.
A preview of the site. On the live site this downloads the installer from the same folder as this page.

1.Windows will warn you the first time. You’ll see “Windows protected your PC” — click More info, then Run anyway. That is SmartScreen saying it doesn’t recognise the publisher, not a virus warning; nothing was detected in the file. Snipshot isn’t code-signed, because a certificate costs a few hundred a year and this is given away for nothing. Some antivirus flags it for the same reason — a known false positive for anything bundling a Python runtime. The checksum above lets you confirm you got exactly the file published here.
2.The Print Screen key. You can assign it, but on a stock Windows 11 the bare key rarely reaches any app, because the built-in Snipping Tool takes it first. Free it under Settings → Accessibility → Keyboard, or just use Shift + Print Screen, which works untouched.
3.Where things go. Screenshots land on your Desktop, following it into OneDrive if that’s where yours lives. Settings sit in %AppData%\Snipshot. Uninstalling from Settings → Apps takes all of it away and leaves your screenshots alone.
4.About the video. It’s an animated demonstration of the real thing, drawn to the app’s own dimensions and colours so the interface is legible at this size. The mail window stands in for whatever you drop into.
