Words out of any picture
Press Ctrl+Shift+0 on Windows or ⌘⇧0 on a Mac, drag over the text, and the words are copied.

Asked, and answered.
Is VizShot a copy of Snipaste?
No. It is its own app, made to stay simple: capture, markup, recording and share links, the same on a PC and a Mac.
Can I keep Snipaste and use VizShot too?
Yes. They do not get in each other’s way, so you can keep Snipaste for pinning and use VizShot for the rest.
Can I use one key on my Mac and my PC?
Yes. You can use your key on two computers, in any mix of Mac and Windows.
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.
