What Is Screen Capture Plus?

Screen Capture Plus is a fast, private screenshot tool for Windows. Press Print Screen, drag to select, and your capture is ready in under a second.

It is inspired by the speed of simple capture tools but built for modern Windows 10 and 11, with on-device OCR, a full annotation editor with blur and pixelate, a searchable local history and remappable hotkeys.

Developers capture UI bugs, support agents annotate tickets and students pull text from slides, all without an account. Your screenshots never leave your machine unless you share them.

A Faster Alternative to the Snipping Tool

Windows includes the Snipping Tool, and it is fine for occasional use. If you take screenshots every day, speed and editing matter: Screen Capture Plus opens a capture in under a second, keeps every shot in a searchable history, and adds OCR and destructive blur, so hidden details are really gone when you share the image.

Screenshot Tips

  • Use numbered step badges to turn a screenshot into a mini tutorial.
  • Blur emails and passwords before you post a screenshot online.
  • Use OCR to copy error messages instead of retyping them.
