BetterShot 0.5.0

on GitHub

A complete introduction to screenshots, video, and permissions; a simpler capture bar; clearer editors; and a more flexible screenshot deck.

Highlights

• Native onboarding: Welcome, Permissions, Shortcuts, and First Capture guide new users through setup with practice edits
• Shared soft gradients: Ten backgrounds (Blush, Peach, Mint, Powder Blue, Butter, Lilac, Sage, Coral, Aqua, Mauve) across both editors and Settings
• Screenshot deck: Keep up to five captures in a floating stack with Copy, Delete, Pin, Edit, and drag-out actions
• Save captures when ready: New Capture setting keeps screenshots in the deck until saved
• One capture and recording bar: Area, Fullscreen, Window, OCR, Color, Timer, and Recording in one bar
• Adjustable recording areas: Drag/resize the selection, confirm with Return or double-click
• Direct redaction tools: Blur and Pixelate visible in both editors with Crop Only or Full Frame coverage
• Cursor styles: Recorded, Dark, Light, Dot, and native Hand artwork with Natural/Smooth motion
• Faster local exports: Video exports reuse unchanged rasters; image exports cache full-resolution PNGs
• Custom clip speeds: 0.25x-8x playback rates with two decimal places
• Export toast: Now appears in a separate panel at the screen top instead of covering the preview
