SimpleShot

Wrap screenshots in beautiful gradient backgrounds.

SimpleShot result

macOS screenshots look raw. Tools like BetterShot add nice backgrounds but come with features you'll never use. SimpleShot does one thing — gradient background with padding — and does it fast.

Take a window screenshot with ⌘⇧4 + Space, open SimpleShot (it auto-loads from clipboard), pick a gradient, tweak padding, hit Copy or Save. Done.
