drop a screenshot — everything happens on your device

A raw screenshot looks like what it is: a rectangle cut out of a screen, with hard edges and no context. The polished product images you see in launch posts and documentation are the same screenshots with four things added: a coloured background, padding, rounded corners and a soft shadow.

Drop your screenshot and adjust those four. The background frames the image, the padding gives it room, the corners and shadow make it look like a window floating on the page. Download a PNG ready for a social post, a slide, a README or a blog.

The screenshot is processed on your device and not uploaded, which matters because screenshots are full of things you did not mean to publish: tabs, names, notifications. If yours shows something private, hide it first with the Blur and Redact tool on this site. A practical tip: capture the screenshot at full size rather than zoomed out; the framing adds polish, not resolution.
