* Display notifications - Lightshot displays notification every time you upload screenshot

Lightshot opens screenshot in a new tab, that is why we need it. * Read your browsing history - Chrome adds this line when we request tabs manipulation permission. * take screenshot and share it in few clicksĬlarification of the extension permissions: Simple interface, nothing useless and light weight.

Lightshot is the fastest way to take a customizable screenshot.

Select an area, edit your screenshot and upload it to the server. you need to explicitly allow it permissions on Windows OS to capture your screen, and it needs to be running with the capture keys configured (I set mine to Command Shift 9, but I don't recall the default) in order to have it capture.Simple and convenient screenshot tool. Surprised to read all the reviews from people saying they couldn't figure out how to open it. Pretty strange.ĭefinitely recommend this for anyone needing a quick snipping tool with markup support though. To be clear, the link loads just fine, it's just that the only thing in the loaded image is the lightshot logo. The actual capture doesn't seem to be there. The only issue I'm seeing currently is that no matter what I've selected to be captured, uploading the screenshot to the cloud and copying the link results in just an image of the lightshot logo. After installing it on my M1 Windows, I found that the features are pretty much all there and despite feeling a little clunky compared to the windows version, it got the job done.

I've been using lightshot on windows for a couple years now and have loved it.
