| Integrations | The GNOME Shell extension is installed automatically when applicable and provides preview windows and recording overlays. | The support page documents command-line use from scripts and batch files for repeatable capture or conversion workflows. |
| Privacy | The privacy policy says captures remain on the device unless users choose to share them, and that screenshots, recordings, clipboard content, keystrokes, and captured media are not collected. | For Windows software purchases, Hyperionics says it retains information such as email, postal address, and purchase history for support and license purposes and does not sell or share it. |
| Support | The download page directs users to Discord for installation help, bug reports, and feature requests, and also links to GitHub issues. | Hyperionics provides support by email and directs users to its FAQ, license recovery tool, and legacy support forum; the forum no longer accepts new signups. |
