What it is
Apowersoft Free Screen Capture captures visible screen content, including selected regions, active windows, drop-down menus, webpages, video frames, and gameplay. Users can start with the camera icon or Print Screen key; the tool detects application windows as the pointer moves over them. A quick editor adds lines, arrows, text, shapes, or blur to cover sensitive information. Captures can be saved as JPG, PNG, TIFF, BMP, GIF, or PDF. Sharing options include copying to the clipboard, emailing, uploading to Screenshot.net, or sharing to listed social networks; uploads receive links, and the product page says free cloud space is provided. The web-based tool does not need Java Applet, but first-time users must install a launcher. It is listed as free, with a free plan for unlimited screenshots after launcher installation. The listed platforms are web, Windows, and macOS. Apowersoft Free Screen Capture is headquartered in Hong Kong, and the maker was founded in 2010.
