#### Screenshots, annotations and screen recordings for tutorials

Capcap makes step-by-step guides, bug reports and demo videos fast.

**Capture and annotate**

* Capture a region or the full screen with a global shortcut
* Add numbered steps, arrows, boxes, freehand lines and text
* Copy the image and paste it straight into chat, email or docs, or save it as PNG or JPG

**Record your screen**

* Record the full screen, a region or a single window
* Your voice and the computer's sound, kept in sync, with optional echo and noise reduction
* Draw on the screen while recording to point things out
* Pause and resume; a recording is recovered if the computer stops suddenly

**Share**

* Connect Google Drive or OneDrive: videos upload in the background with visible progress
* The share link is copied for you, ready to paste

Works on Ubuntu 24.04 or later with the GNOME desktop (Wayland and X11). Available in English and Tiếng Việt.

**First run**

* To record your voice, allow "Audio record" in App Center → Capcap → Permissions, or run: sudo snap connect capcap:audio-record
* The first time you capture or record, Ubuntu asks which screen to share. Keep "Remember this selection" ticked so it asks only once.
