Questions

Asked, and answered.

Is there a Screenpresso for Mac?

Not that its own site shows. Its download page is for Windows 11, and the features page lists Windows only. VizShot is a separate app by a different developer.

Can I keep Screenpresso on my PC and use VizShot on my Mac?

Yes. They do not get in each other’s way, and VizShot runs on the PC too if you want the same app on both.

Does VizShot run on Windows as well?

Yes. It is the same app on both, and you can use your key on two computers, in any mix.

What happens after the 14 days?

You get 14 days with every feature. After that, VizShot keeps taking screenshots, but saving, uploading and recording need a key.

Do I need an account?

No. Install it and start. You only give an email address when you buy a key.
