@lukaszmtw Congratulations! Very exciting improvements. What will happen with CleanShot users via Setapp?
Luke Oslizlo
@heliostatic yes, the app is available in Setapp already! :)

@lukaszmtw I can't imagine a day without CleanShot ever since I've started using it. It's super fast to quickly take a screenshot, highlight changes, and share with my team via slack, hangouts, or email. Such a time saver. Capturing the Gif is super cool. I used to use dropbox in order to store these Gifs. Now the X version took care of that, and that's Awesome! I bet everyone should have it. 🀟🏻

There's so much opportunity in the space of taking Mac OS features and 10x-ing them. What's hard is the execution. The new CleanShot goes above and beyond its predecessor in terms of finesse and thoughtfulness. Best $29 you'll spend this month.

@shawnroos Thanks a lot Shawn! πŸ™Œ

Instant purchase. Both cleanshot and pixelsnap have been two apps that live inside my menu bar providing that much needed extended function that feels native to mac os. They key feature that sold me is the rolling screen shot. Now you don't need to stitch anything together anymore and it's really something that will come handy every day. Although you need to create an account to use their cloud, they have opted to make this available as a one time purchase. No subscription needed unlike flexibits who went for the "milk your user base" route. great product and devs that I would recommend to my friends.

Impressive product @lukaszmtw, congrats! I'm interested in buying CleanShot but would love to see more FAQs. My main question would be if it's possible to use Dropbox instead of your Cloud solution. Thanks!
Luke Oslizlo
@thedaviddias1 assuming you use the desktop Dropbox app, you can set up CleanShot to save the files in your Dropbox folder.
David Dias 🌴
@lukaszmtw I was too excited and bought 2 licences :D I just saw the option to save on any folder. That's awesome! I believe it may replace Kap...
David Dias 🌴
@lukaszmtw last suggestion and maybe I missed the option, but would be nice to have a way to change the name of the file before saving it... Like http://www.kerlmax.com/products/... in same way :)
Luke Oslizlo
@thedaviddias1 you can already set up that in Preferences: https://cln.sh/mjFd :)
David Dias 🌴
@lukaszmtw OMG! Ok, I'm sold. Your app is more than amazing! Be proud and thank you for the hard work πŸ‘!

This is a truly awesome utility for IT professionals who have the need to constantly take screenshots and share them. There is a copy feature, annotate feature and so many more which I absolutely love.
Luke Oslizlo
@torchaj Thanks a lot! I'm really glad you love using CleanShot. 😍

I've been using Cleanshot for a while now and Cleanshot X makes it better in every single way. From beautiful new features like the scrolling capture - which is unlike any other similar feature I've seen - to improving the overall feel of the app (love the new video configuration options). Cleanshot X is probably the last screenshotting/recording tool I'll ever need. If you don't have it already you should absolutely get it now!
Luke Oslizlo
@_pretzelhands Thanks a lot for the review! I'm really stoked to see people enjoying using CleanShot as much as we do!
Karol
New features are so useful! I really like the scrolling capture πŸ–Ό
Luke Oslizlo
@pankarol_ Thanks! πŸ‘Š I'm using the scrolling capture nearly every day too.
valdy
The best screenshot app that I have ever used!I am a designer and for me,this is the most important tool,so I tried a lot of them and only one is still installed on my computer.
Luke Oslizlo
@valdy awesome to hear that you’re enjoying using it!
Samuel Beek
@lukaszmtw What an amazing powerful product. I've been interested in screenshots for a while, it seems like a new medium for communication. I even wrote an article on it https://medium.com/@SamuelBeek/t.... Your tools seems to have tackled a lot of my frustrations and ideas for taking and sending screenshots on the desktop. I was wondering what next steps are: Where is this product moving, will it be more of a utility or a platform around screenshots? will you make more communication features or capture ones?
Nikita
Lovely update. One thing I wish you could bring though is pressing cmd (or option) key to start dragging the image from annotate screen instead of pressing the `Drag Me` button. Is much nicer UX to just hold a modifier key and start dragging the image.
Luke Oslizlo
@nikitavoloboev It's already on our to-do list! :)
Nikita
@lukaszmtw Awesome to hear. I thought ability to reverse the arrow direction was to be released with the new version too. That is instead first click will be the arrow end and then drag away to size it. Rather than the current of clicking and then dragging to where the arrow should point. I would love to have the option for the first arrow as default (super used to it from Annotate)
Nikita
@lukaszmtw Also is it possible to add an image from Annotate screen to clipboard? I would really love that.
Luke Oslizlo
@nikitavoloboev We have all that. :) 1. You can adjust the arrow direction in Preferences: https://cln.sh/p0YX 2. You can copy the image right away by pressing ⌘ + C or clicking this button: https://cln.sh/rv99

Just bought this. The Scrolling Capture feature is worth it by itself. Well done!
Ashim Adhikari
I wished you offered free trial. Just watched the demo video and the app looks promising.
Luke Oslizlo
@masterashim feel free to give it a try and I'm sure you will love it! (we also have a 30-day money-back guarantee so no worries if you don't 100% like it πŸ˜‡)
Israel Vicars
@masterashim You can trial it through Setapp's free 7-day trial (https://setapp.com). @lukaszmtw said it will be available there later today.
Luke Oslizlo
@masterashim @israelvicars yep! It should be live there now.

TL;DR: Simply no other tool can match the level of Cleanshot. Fast, intuitive and doing features at hand when you need 'em. Been using Cleanshot for the past year and it's one of those tools I can't live without. The quality of product is top notchβ€” and so is the support from Luke and PaweΕ‚. (well done guys)
Luke Oslizlo
@morajabi Thank you Mo! 🀩
Titus Decali
I've had cleanshot for over a year and it really is a great piece of software. I use it at least 10 times every single day.
Fioralba Duma
Please how can I make a scrolling screenshot?
Yevhenii Peteliev
Niicee! Looks very useful. I can't wait when I try it :) Congratulations!
Luke Oslizlo
@peteliev give it a try and I'm sure you won't regret it! :) (we also have a money-back guarantee, but not many people need to use that πŸ˜›)
Aragvel
Love the UI. Great job!
Burak Goc
Nice job! πŸ‘ πŸ‘
Chrissy
This looks like a really nice update. I use CleanShot through SetApp, is CleanShot X coming to SetApp?
Luke Oslizlo
@chrisssycollins thanks! It will be live in Setapp today! πŸ₯³
Yu-Cheng Wang
Looks pretty good! Does the CleanShot Cloud has storage limit?
Luke Oslizlo
@yu_cheng_wang It doesn't, but for free the screenshots expire after 30 days. We'll be launching a PRO account with advanced features and adjustable expire time. :)
