Why switch to Snipper

A fresh, modern interface

Snipper brings a clean, dark-mode-friendly UI to the capture-and-annotate workflow Greenshot users already know.

Ghost Tray sharing

Keep recent captures floating and drag them into the app you need, rather than saving and re-opening files.

Smoother annotation

Blur, arrows, text, and shapes in one focused window, then export a clean finished image.

Actively maintained

Regular updates and a clear Pro roadmap, with one-time pricing and no subscription.

Greenshot is a solid, free, long-standing tool that many people rely on. Snipper is for those who want a more modern interface and the Ghost Tray sharing workflow alongside the familiar capture and annotation tools.
