Frequently asked questions
How do I take a screenshot of one window on a Mac?
Press ⌥⇧Z, or press ⌥Z and click the window. NeatShot keeps the window's rounded corners and shadow.
Can I blur sensitive information?
Yes. Use blur (B) or mosaic (M) on any part of the capture. Both are burned into the exported image.
Can I edit a screenshot later?
Yes. Captures open as editable .enshot projects, so annotations stay movable until you export.
