Reticle

A simple screenshot and annotation tool for Apple Silicon

App Store

Screenshot tools used to be small, fast, and out of the way. Reticle is a modern return to that: press a global hotkey, drag out a region, mark it up with arrows, shapes, and text, then copy it to the clipboard or save a PNG. Menu-bar only, no account, and nothing ever leaves your Mac.

Features

Region capture — Drag a crosshair over any part of the screen, with a live pixel readout so you can hit an exact size
Markup — Lines, arrows, rectangles, ellipses, and text labels — in any colour, at three stroke weights
Copy or save — Command-C flattens it onto the clipboard; Command-S writes a PNG wherever you choose
Global hotkey — Start a capture from anywhere with Command-Shift-9, or record a shortcut of your own
Menu bar only — No Dock icon and no window — it stays out of the way until you press the key
Correct on every display — Captures at each display's true resolution, including setups that mix Retina and non-Retina screens
Nothing leaves your Mac — Sandboxed with no network access at all — no account, no uploads, no telemetry
