Magnify.Snap v1.1.0
Fast screen magnifier for Windows and Linux. Lives in the system tray; one press of the middle mouse button zooms the screen to 200%, another press snaps it back — while the screen stays fully interactive.

Highlights
- Instant zoom toggle on the middle mouse button (rebindable to any mouse button, key or combination)
- Zoom level 125–800%, smooth zoom animation
- While zoomed, the view follows the cursor at the screen edges (speed and edge zone are configurable)
- Fully interactive screen — click, type and work as usual
- Follows the system theme (System / Light / Dark switch in settings)
- Optional start at sign-in; single instance; always restores 100% on exit
Notes
- Windows: the bound mouse button is suppressed so it doesn't leak into other apps
- Linux: drives the GNOME magnifier (gsettings) or the KWin Zoom effect (qdbus); global input capture is guaranteed on X11
