Free for Windows 10 and 11

Every screenshot, clipped to a clothesline.

Hangshot catches every screenshot you take and hangs it across the top of your screen. Drag one into any app, pin the keepers, and let the rest dry off into the basket. Always at full resolution, never touched.

Features

1:1 pixels

Thumbnails render at your screen's real pixel size, so text stays sharp at 125% and 150% scaling. Originals are never touched.

Drag anywhere

Pull a card off the line and drop the original into Discord, Chrome, WhatsApp or a folder.

Out of your way

Tucks up while you work and hides in fullscreen games. Ctrl Alt H hides it.

Stays on your PC

No account, no cloud. The only thing it asks the internet is whether there's an update.

How it works

Three steps. One time.

  1. Download

    Run Hangshot-Setup.exe. It installs in seconds and starts with Windows.

  2. Say yes once

    If Windows shows a blue warning, click More info, then Run anyway. The app is new and not code-signed yet.

  3. Snip

    Press Win Shift S. Your screenshot drops onto the line.

FAQ

Quick answers

Is it really free?

Yes. No ads, no account, no trial.

Does it upload my screenshots?

No. Everything stays on your PC. The only thing it asks the internet is whether there's a new version.

Where do my screenshots go?

Where they always go, usually Pictures\Screenshots. Snips that were only copied to the clipboard are saved as lossless PNGs in Pictures\Hangshot.

It covers my browser tabs.

It tucks up by itself after a few seconds. Push your mouse to the top edge to pull it back. You can also move it, shorten it or switch monitors in Settings from the tray icon.

Mac or Linux?

Windows only for now.
