One of the most popular applications in the app store for Mac is CleanShot X. This popular tool whose main function is to take screenshots at a higher level than the rest, it has just been updated with some interesting news. It is a very interesting application to have, not only because of its capacity, but also because of its regular updates.
CleanShot X adds a number of powerful features for capturing and recording screens on Mac. The update that came in December last year almost completely redefined the tool and the update now makes it considered as probably the best tool in its field. . version 4.1, It has improved recording functions, a new blur option for private information and some other things that make it very interesting.
The app adds a new feature thate helps ensure that sensitive information is not visible on your screenshots. We already know that this function could be performed, for example, by pixelating confidential information with the use of other images. But why bother if now CleanShot X can also blur that information. There’s also a new “safe blur” option that randomizes the blur pattern to make everything even more unreadable.
Another improvement with this new update of the application, is the ability to lock the aspect ratio when you select the recording area. This makes it easy to record screenshots in a specific aspect ratio, such as 16:9 for YouTube uploads.
The rest of the new functions are:
