Screenshots, hung out to dry.

Every screenshot and recording you take hangs on a line at the top of your screen. Out of sight, always within reach.

Everything is one gesture away.

No windows to manage and no buttons to hunt for. Pick a moment to see how it goes.

Built for how you actually work.

Hangshot keeps your captures handy without asking for attention.

Capture and record, built in

Drag out an area, grab the whole screen, or record a video encoded on your graphics card. It lands on the line and on your clipboard, flying in from right where you took it.

  • CtrlAltSAn area, or a click for the screen
  • CtrlAltFThe whole screen, at once
  • CtrlAltRStart or stop recording
  • PrtScnIf you like, instead of Windows' own tool

Side by side

Drag one capture to the left edge and another to the right to compare them.

Drag it where it's going

Along the line, it changes places. Into an app, it sends a copy and stays on the line. Into a folder, it moves there and leaves the line. To the Recycle Bin, it's gone. And pictures or videos dragged from a folder to the top of the screen hang on the line.

Any folder you choose

Hangshot picks up screenshots and recordings from any folder you choose, so captures from the tools you already use hang too. Press and hold any of them to mark it up in Paint.

  • Win+PrtScn
  • Your Screenshots folder
  • Any folder you add

Private by design

No account, no network, no analytics. Your captures never leave your PC.

Your Pictures folder, finally clear

Let Hangshot handle your screenshots and they skip your Pictures folder entirely. Only what you drag out is kept. Your Windows setting comes back the moment you turn it off.

Speaks your language

English, Spanish and French, light or dark, and every shortcut is yours to change.

Stays out of the way

It hides over full-screen games and videos, and never shows up in your own screenshots, recordings or screen shares.

Hang your first screenshot.

Free for Windows 10 and 11. One file, nothing else to install.
