Important information for PRO users

This release is a new major version of Screenpresso. We upgraded from major version 1 to major version 2 after ten years of existence!

You continue to get free upgrades for the year after buying your license key.
When this maintenance period expires, you can choose between:

Skipping the updates and remaining on the version you already have. Your actual license for Screenpresso PRO remains valid lifetime for the version 1.
Accepting the updates and switching back to the free version. You can purchase a new license at any time.

Thank you for supporting us. We are working hard to make Screenpresso a tool that you like.

Enhanced screenshot engine

Performance improvement and better looking with the animated magnifier during region selection.

New capture magnifier

Zoom in/out is now possible using the mouse wheel during the capture region definition.
When using multiple monitors, the fullscreen capture mode only captures the monitor with the mouse cursor in it.
You can now grab the mouse cursor and move it during post-production using the built-in image editor:

Mouse cursor edition

To capture the mouse cursor, press the [PrintScreen], then press the M key before defining the capture region. If you want to include the mouse cursor on every new capture, open the Screenpresso settings on the Screenshot tab and select Capture mouse cursor.
The cursor can now also be captured using Capture last region, Capture active window and Capture full screen.
