Light Shot

Light Shot is the fastest way to take a customizable screen capture on windows 10 or on any other pc or Mac and it’s 100% FREE.

I use this app every day and once you install it on your pc, it is automatically connected with your Print Screen (Prt Sc) key on your keyword.

You just click the Print Screen (Prt Sc) key on your keyboard and select the area you want to capture!

Once captured then you have the option to highlight the focus area, draw arrows and lines, add text, copy and paste, save it, print it, and share it!

Awsome ScreenShot

Awesome ScreenShot is another screen capture and screen recorder tool that I use a lot. It is very user-friendly and has a lot of features.

This app is an Extention that can be added to your browser and it is supported by Chrome, Safari, Firefox and Microsoft Edge.

You have to open an account and you have your own dashboard.

You can capture the Visible Part (it will capture only the screen not the bookmark Bar or browser bar), Full Page even the nonvisible areas (eg. the entire home page of a website), and Selected Area.

It has features like highlighting the focus area, drawing arrows and lines, adding text, copying and pasting, saving it, print it, and share it, and more options…

This app has a free plan as well as a paid plan for Individuals and Teams. You can do a lot with the free plan but if you want to upgrade to a professional plan it costs $6/month billed annually for Individuals and $8/month for Teams.

They have a refund policy within 14 days of purchase for a yeary subscription. No refund is available for a monthly subscription.

Snipping Tool

Snipping Tool is another screen capture tool for windows 10 that I didn’t know exist.

It is a default tool on a windows computers and you can find it in the Search bar on your PC by typing “ Snipping Tool “

Once you search for Snipping tool it pops up the Snipping toop window and you have to select New in order to capture the area you want.

This app has fewer features compared to the other apps mention above but it is very user-friendly and you can pin it to your computer Start bar in order to get quick access to it.
