v1.1.0

The macOS screenshot thumbnail for Linux and Windows, and now a lot more. Made by Shaurya Shakya.

Install

  • Windows (Scoop): scoop bucket add snapfloat https://github.com/shaurya-8055/scoop-bucket then scoop install snapfloat
  • Windows (by hand): download SnapFloat.exe below and run it (SmartScreen: More info → Run anyway; the exe isn't code-signed)
  • Linux (any distro): download SnapFloat-x86_64.AppImage, chmod +x it and run it. On GNOME, log out and back in once.
  • Ubuntu/Debian from source: git clone https://github.com/shaurya-8055/snapfloat && cd snapfloat && ./install.sh

New in 1.1

  • Mac-like drag: the thumbnail lifts off and follows your cursor; a cancelled drag slides it back
  • Markup: arrows, boxes, highlighter, text, numbered steps, crop, blur
  • Hide private info: one click blurs emails, phone numbers, OTPs, card numbers
  • Copy text: all of it, or just the part you drag a box over (OCR, needs Tesseract)
  • Beautify, Combine all into one, Shift+drag to send every screenshot at once
  • Recent screenshots in the tray, delayed capture, flick to dismiss, smaller files
  • PrtSc / Shift+PrtSc capture by default (given back to the system if you turn it off)
  • Built-in uninstall, owner-only temp folder, start at login

▶ 70-second video tour with voiceover

Known limitations

  • Windows support is new and has had little testing. Please report problems.
  • KDE and other Wayland desktops: thumbnails work, but they open where the desktop puts them, not in the corner.
