More reliable on two monitors

  • Print Screen freezes the monitor your mouse pointer is on, whichever window is active. Swoop now reads the pointer the moment the capture starts, so a busy moment in the app can't make it fall back to your main monitor.
  • If the pointer is off every screen, Swoop picks the closest screen instead of the main one.
  • Tested on a 125% and a 100% monitor side by side.

Swoop for Chrome is unchanged apart from the version number.

Updating from 0.1.4: just run the new Swoop-setup.exe. It closes Swoop, installs over the old version and keeps your settings.

Install

  • Chrome and Edge: unzip swoop-chrome.zip, open chrome://extensions, turn on Developer mode and choose Load unpacked.
  • Windows: run Swoop-setup.exe. It installs for you only, with no admin rights. The installer is not code-signed yet, so SmartScreen may warn: choose More info, then Run anyway.
  • Linux and Mac: coming soon.
