QuickCapture
Built for speed
A native Rust capture core does the work; nothing else runs until you ask for it.

Features
Everything after the screenshot
Capture is only the start. QuickCapture helps you share, explain and find it later.
Multi-monitor & high DPI
Capture one screen, a single window or every monitor at once. Mixed scaling and negative coordinates are handled in real pixels, so every capture is sharp.
Pin to screen
Keep a capture floating above everything — zoom, change opacity, click through it while you work.
Annotate in seconds
Arrows, boxes, text, numbered steps, stamps, speech bubbles, spotlight, magnifier, torn edges and crop. Every edit stays editable — reopen it any time.
Auto redact
One click finds e-mails, phone, ID, card and account numbers — and faces — and blurs them. Blur really destroys the pixels.
Scrolling capture
Capture a whole web page, chat or document. QuickCapture scrolls for you and stitches it seamlessly.
Copy text from anything
Grab the words in any image or video with Windows' built-in OCR. Links, phone numbers and dates become one-click actions.
Step recorder
Work as usual; every click becomes a numbered screenshot with “Click ‘Settings’” written for you. Export a how-to in seconds.
Screen recording (MP4)
Record any area as a small MP4 with system sound, your voice and an optional webcam corner. Pause, resume and trim — all on your PC.
GIF recording
Record a short moving demo and paste it straight into chat or e-mail. Tiny files, crisp UI colours.
Presenter mode
Zoom into the screen live, draw and type on it, switch to a whiteboard or blackboard and run a break timer — made for demos and classes.
Interval capture
Take a screenshot every few seconds automatically. Unchanged screens are skipped and everything lands in one collection.
Find it later
A private library of every capture: search by app, window title, tag — even the text inside the picture.
Collections
Group captures into projects in one click and export them as PDF, Markdown or a web page.
Compare & bug reports
See before and after with a slider and pixel diff. Package screenshots, environment and text as a bug report ZIP.
Automation
“If the screen says error, redact, tag and save to the Bugs folder.” Workflows run after every capture, locally.
Live Text
Select words right on the picture and copy them, like text in a document. Works on every capture in your history.
QR codes & barcodes
Read QR codes and barcodes (EAN, UPC, Code 128…) in any capture, offline. Links open with one click; everything else is copied.
Beautify for sharing
Add a gradient background, padding, rounded corners and a soft shadow in one click: ready for social posts and slides.
Your hotkeys
PrintScreen or any combo you like. QuickCapture never steals a shortcut that another app already uses.
12 languages
The app, installer and help come in 12 languages and follow your Windows language automatically.
A clean, fast image viewer
Make QuickCapture your default image app: PNG, JPG, GIF, WebP open instantly with no ads — zoom at the pointer, ←/→ through the folder, copy, pin or edit in one key.
Toolbar mode
Shrink the window to a slim floating capture bar that stays out of the way. Start with Windows, always on top, Explorer “Edit with QuickCapture”.
A more capable capture toolbar
Toolbar mode now has one-click video (MP4) and GIF recording, the step recorder, last region, colour picker and pin-from-clipboard. More opens fixed-size, horizontal scrolling and interval capture, presentation mode, pin management and the QR generator.
Recording controls on screen
While recording a GIF or video, a slim bar at the top shows the time with Pause and Stop buttons — no shortcut to remember. It never appears in the recording.
Automatic, verified updates
New versions install by themselves while you're away — only after the size, SHA-256 and code signature check out. No personal data is sent, and you can switch to notices only.
Send from your phone
Scan the QR code in QuickCapture with your phone's camera, pick screenshots or photos in the page that opens, and they land on your PC's clipboard a second later. iPhone or Android, your own Wi-Fi only, no cloud, nothing to install on the phone.
AI background removal
One click keeps the person or object and makes the background transparent. The AI runs entirely on your PC — images are never uploaded (one-time component download).
Colour picker
Pick any pixel on screen with a magnified loupe. Copy HEX, RGB or HSL, keep a history and check WCAG contrast as you go.
QR code generator
Make QR codes for links, Wi-Fi, contacts, e-mail or phone numbers, offline. Pick colours and size, then copy or save as PNG or SVG.
Tables from screenshots
Recognised text keeps its structure: tables paste into Excel, Sheets and Word as real cells, or copy as CSV, Markdown, layout text or paragraphs.
Save the way you want
PNG, JPEG, WebP, AVIF, BMP or TIFF with quality, size limits and metadata removal. PNGs are optimised losslessly in the background.
Pins, supercharged
Zoom at the pointer, rotate and flip, snap to screen edges and other pins, click through, and bring your pins back after a restart.
Settings backup
Export your settings to a file, preview every change before importing, and roll back from automatic backups at any time.
Watermarks & branding
Add a text or logo mark at one of nine positions or tiled across the image — by hand in the editor or automatically on every save.
Drag and drop anywhere
Drag a capture straight from the preview, library or viewer into Explorer, chat, e-mail or a document. The target always gets a copy.
Clicks & shortcuts in recordings
Show click ripples and shortcut badges in GIF and MP4 recordings so viewers can follow along. Password fields are never shown.
Clean desktop
Hide desktop icons and switch to a plain wallpaper while you record, then get everything back — even after a crash.
Faster editing
Style presets on the number keys, crop ratios and exact sizes, canvas expand, align and distribute, smart guides and a shortcut cheat sheet (?).

Privacy
Private by design
Your screen is yours.
Captures, history and text never leave your PC. The only thing QuickCapture sends on its own is a once-a-day version check with no personal data — and you can turn it off.
No account, no cloud
Nothing to sign up for. Captures, history and recognised text stay on this PC.
You decide what is kept
Turn off window titles or stored text, exclude banking and password apps from history.
Signed and verifiable
Installers are code-signed by PROJECTTEAMFORYOU with SHA-256 checksums for every build.
Frequently asked questions
Is QuickCapture free?
Yes. QuickCapture is free to download and use on Windows 10 and 11.
Does it upload my screenshots?
No. There is no account and no server. Captures, history and recognised text never leave your PC unless you share them yourself.
Will it replace the PrintScreen key?
Only if you want it to. QuickCapture never steals a hotkey: if Windows or another app already uses PrintScreen, it tells you and lets you choose.
Which languages does text recognition support?
It uses the OCR built into Windows, so it reads every language you have installed in Windows settings — Korean, English, Japanese, Chinese and many more.
Does it work with several monitors and high DPI?
Yes. Every monitor, mixed scaling and negative coordinates are handled in physical pixels, so captures are always sharp.
How do I uninstall it?
Use Windows Settings › Apps like any other program. Your saved images stay where you saved them.
Does QuickCapture show ads?
Never. No banners, pop-ups, hidden shopping links or tracking. The app only captures.
How do I make PrintScreen open QuickCapture?
On Windows 11 the PrintScreen key opens Snipping Tool by default. Open Settings › Accessibility › Keyboard and turn off “Use the Print screen key to open screen capture”. QuickCapture detects this and offers a one-click shortcut to that page on its home screen.
How do I make QuickCapture my default image viewer?
Open QuickCapture › Windows integration › Image viewer and choose “Set as default…” (or tick the box on the installer's last page). Windows then shows its Default apps page for QuickCapture — pick it for PNG, JPG, GIF, WebP and the others. You can undo it any time with “Unregister”.
