ShotBox

ShotBox lets you easily markup screenshots as you take them!

ShotBox is a fantastic little utility that pops up when you take a screenshot, allowing you to quickly preview your screenshot, mark it up, and then drag it into other apps!

@joshparnham I love it! Ever single Apple created "Markup" I've hoped someone would build an app that allowed simple markup of screenshots.

@ryan_roberts1 Thanks mate! I completely agree – when I saw the iOS 11 beta I thought it just made perfect sense to integrate with ☺️

@joshparnham Loving it so far! Very handy tool. Got two questions: would it be possible to autosave a screenshot when no edit is needed (much like the iOS 11 behaviour) and can you add a function to markup a screenshot by dragging it on top of the Manu bar icon?

@joshparnham any chance of making it into an IPhone app too?

@t55 Would you be able to clarify what you mean by "autosave"? The screenshots are currently saved to the desktop and you can close ShotBox and select "Save" to keep them. I'm also working on some features now so that you can close the window quicker and have it automatically save the screenshot without needing to press "Save" ☺️ I'll also look into whether I could support screenshots being dragged onto the menu bar icon – great suggestion!

Doesn't work for me :( Installed it and used both commands. The screenshots are instantly saved to the desktop but no window pop up. Tried several times, restarted the app. Anything I can do? thanks! :)

@justin_schueler I'm sorry to hear that mate! Did you see the window asking you to grant access to your Desktop folder when you first opened the app? (ShotBox needs to be able to access the Desktop through the macOS sandbox )

@justin_schueler @joshparnham Need to be able to change folder afterwards. I forgot dropbox moves my screenshots into its own folder.

@justin_schueler @iamchristruman Unfortunately that didn't make it into the v1.0 but it's definitely coming! In the meantime you can run `defaults delete com.joshparnham.ShotBox` in your Terminal and relaunch the app for it to prompt you again for your screenshots path. Proper ability to change your screenshot path in the UI is coming soon 👍
