First launch

Snapt is not code-signed yet, so the system warns you the first time you open it.

  • Windows. SmartScreen shows "Windows protected your PC". Click More info, then Run anyway.
  • macOS. Open the .dmg and drag Snapt to Applications. On the first launch macOS says it cannot
    verify the developer. Open System Settings → Privacy & Security, scroll down and click
    Open Anyway. If macOS says the app is damaged, run
    xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Snapt.app in Terminal. On the first capture,
    allow Screen Recording in the same settings page and restart Snapt.
  • Linux. Install the .deb with sudo apt install ./snapt_*_amd64.deb, or make the AppImage
    executable with chmod +x snapt_*.AppImage and run it. On GNOME, install the AppIndicator
    extension to see the tray icon. On Wayland, bind snapt --capture to a key in the keyboard
    settings, since apps can't register global shortcuts there.

Snapt starts in the tray (menu bar on macOS). Press PrtSc (Cmd+Shift+9 on macOS) to take a
screenshot, select an area, draw on it with the panel next to it, then press Ctrl+C to copy or
Ctrl+S to save. The shortcut, folder, format and language are in Settings… in the tray menu.
From 1.1.0 on, Snapt checks for new versions once a day and offers to update itself.
Press Ctrl+Shift+C to copy the text in the selection; on Linux this needs tesseract-ocr.

More about Snapt, with answers to common questions, on the website.
