Glint is a screenshot tool that lives in your menu bar. Select an area, mark it up, then copy it, save it, or pin it on top of your windows. It can also stitch a long scrolling page into one image.
Press Control-Option-A, or click the Glint icon in the menu bar and choose Capture Area. Drag to select an area, or click once to select the window under the pointer. Press Return (or double-click inside the selection) to copy it, Command-S to save it, and Esc to cancel.
macOS requires this permission for any screenshot app. Open System Settings → Privacy & Security → Screen & System Audio Recording, turn Glint on, then quit and reopen Glint.
Another app may already be using the same key combination. Click the Glint icon → Preferences and record a different shortcut.
The first time you save, Glint asks you to choose a folder and then keeps using it. You can change the folder and the format (PNG or JPEG) in Preferences.
After selecting an area, pick a tool from the toolbar under the selection, or press 1–9: rectangle, ellipse, line, arrow, pen, highlighter, mosaic, text, and numbered steps. Choose a size and color in the row that appears. Command-Z undoes, Shift-Command-Z redoes.
Select the part of the window that scrolls, click the up-and-down arrows button in the toolbar, then scroll down slowly inside the frame. Click Copy or Save in the small panel when you reach the end. If the panel says it lost track, scroll back up a little and continue more slowly.
Click the pin button in the toolbar to keep the screenshot floating above your other windows. Drag it to move it, scroll over it to zoom, right-click for more options, and double-click it or press Esc to close it.
Yes. Drag inside it to move it, drag the handles to resize it, or nudge it with the arrow keys (hold Shift for larger steps). Right-click to start over.
The interface follows your macOS language: English and Simplified Chinese.
Glint collects no data and never connects to the internet. See the Privacy Policy.
