Mac screenshot and screen recording app with annotation tools and shareable links
A macOS app for taking, annotating and sharing screenshots. Includes screen recording, OCR text extraction, cloud storage and one-click shareable links. Free
Overview
Sowiks is a native macOS screenshot and screen recording app built by Vasyl Holiney in Chernivtsi, Ukraine. Take screenshots in nine different modes—area, window, full screen, scrolling, fixed size, self-timer, collection, OCR text, and screen recording—and they open immediately in a built-in editor with 13 annotation tools including arrows, shapes, blur, text, step numbers and more.
After editing, turn any screenshot into a shareable link in one click with optional password protection and expiration dates. The app automatically compresses screenshots and offers 1 GB of cloud storage on the paid Solo plan. Key features include OCR text extraction, screen recording to MP4 or GIF, collections for combining multiple screenshots, and private share links that never expire unless you delete them.
Window capture and the full annotation editor are free forever. The 7-day trial unlocks all features, and after that, purchasing Solo ($19.99 one-time) provides access to all capture modes, OCR, cloud storage, share links, and screen recording.

Frequently looked up
- Q1How do I crop a screenshot on Mac?
- Take a screenshot with Sowiks and it opens straight in the editor. Pick the Crop tool, drag the handles around the part you want to keep, and the rest is trimmed away. No need to open Preview or Photos to crop a screenshot on Mac.
- Q2How do I extract text from an image on Mac?
- Use the OCR tool in Sowiks: drag over any text in a screenshot or image and it's copied to your clipboard, ready to paste. It's the fastest way to extract text from an image on Mac without retyping.
- Q3Is there a free trial?
- Yes—7 days with everything unlocked, starting with your first capture. No card and no account are needed. After it, window capture and the full editor stay free forever. Solo at $19.99 (one-time) keeps the other capture modes, OCR, cloud storage, share links and recording.
- Q4What happens to my files when the trial ends?
- Nothing for three days. After that your cloud files stop being shown and the links to them say the file is no longer available, though nothing has been deleted yet. Buying Solo brings everything back. Two weeks later the files are erased for good.
- Q5Does Sowiks work on Windows?
- Sowiks is a native macOS app and requires macOS 15.5 or later. There is no Windows version yet.
