About
Screendrop is a menu bar app that combines screenshots, screen recording and Loom style video sharing in one native tool. Captures land in a floating preview stack where you can copy, pin, annotate, upload or delete them, and the editor adds smart redaction, wallpaper backgrounds, perspective effects and progressive blur. Recordings can include camera, microphone and system audio as separate tracks, with smooth zooms, keystroke captions, on-device transcription and a notch teleprompter. Sharing runs through your own Cloudflare account, and Apple Shortcuts and Siri can trigger captures. Needs macOS 26.4 or later.
