| Integrations | The GNOME Shell extension is installed automatically when applicable and provides preview windows and recording overlays. | Shottr URL schemes can be used by Raycast extensions and Alfred workflows and can integrate with the Shortcuts app. |
| Intended users | The maker says ApexShot is built for Linux users and describes its team pilot research as aimed at Linux-heavy companies and open-source organizations. | The maker describes Shottr as a screenshot tool for designers, front-end engineers, mobile developers, and people who care about pixels. |
| Platform limitation | Video recording is not supported on Fedora; the download page says recording actions show a notification and exit. | The maker says Windows or Linux support is unlikely because Shottr relies on low-level macOS APIs and its codebase is not portable. |
| Telemetry | Anonymous aggregated usage statistics and optional crash reports can be disabled in the app settings. | Diagnostic telemetry can be turned off in Preferences; the policy says telemetry may include performance, error, feature-use, device, and app information. |
