## About

ScreenOtter combines screen recording, screenshot capture and editing in a native Mac app. It records at up to 60 fps, adds automatic zooms, and offers camera layouts, face tracking, background blur and removal, voiceovers, music, and on-device captions. Record an area, window or display from the menu bar or a keyboard shortcut, then export video up to 4K or a looping GIF.

Its screenshot editor includes arrows, text, numbered steps, blur, pixelation, spotlight and customizable backdrops. Captures can also be previewed for dragging into other apps, and text can be copied from screen content. ScreenOtter requires macOS 15 or later; its listed launch price is $29.
