About JustShowMe: Annotate, Snip & Record
STOP EXPLAINING. JUST SHOW ME.
JustShowMe is the ultimate private screen recorder and screenshot annotation tool. Effortlessly draw on and capture your screen, record high-quality tab video, and add professional image markups without ever creating an account.
Perfect for developers, QA testers, and designers who need a fast, local-first alternative to Loom or Awesome Screenshot, or a modern browser-based alternative to Snagit or Skitch.
π‘οΈ PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Most tools force you to sign up and host your captures on their servers. We don't.
β’ No Accounts: Start using it the second you install it.
β’ Zero Cloud: No uploads, no backend, no third-party tracking.
β’ Offline Ready: Everything runs locally in your browser.
β’ Security Minded: Content scripts are only injected when you click the icon. Your browsing session is never observed without an explicit action. A lightweight service worker handles coordination but has no access to page content.
β¨ FEATURES (FREE FOREVER)
We don't hide basic tools behind "feature walls." Get the full toolkit for free:
β’ Pro Drawing Suite: Freehand pen, highlighters, arrows, shapes, and text labels.
β’ Smart Tools: Numbered Step Markers, Blur/Redact for sensitive info, and a Laser Pointer.
β’ Full-Page Capture: Automatically scroll and capture entire webpages at HiDPI resolution.
β’ Precision Snip: Crop specific regions of your viewport instantly.
β’ Video Recording: Record your tab (up to 60s) as MP4 or WebM with a 3-2-1 countdown.
β’ Design Guides: Toggle alignment grids and measurement tools to point out UI issues.
β’ Clipboard Ready: Automatically copied for instant pasting into Slack, Jira, or GitHub.
π οΈ HOW IT WORKS
1. Click the JustShowMe icon in your toolbar.
2. Annotate using the floating toolbar.
3. Save via Full-Page, Snip, or Record.
4. Paste your result directly into your workflow for bug reporting or visual feedback.

π WHAT'S NEW (v1.7)
- Element picker: click what you mean instead of drawing a box around it
- Selector export (extension): Point at any control and get CSS, XPath and framework locators β three ranked candidates, one click to copy
- Measure or snip an element: Hover a button to measure its width or height, or snip it exactly, with no dragging
- All like this: One pick selects every matching element on the page
- Before/after compare: Capture two states and show them side by side, each pane labelled with its own URL. Your comparison survives reloads and navigation.
- Spotlight tool: Dim the page and cut out only what matters β several spotlights at once, a choice of shape, soft edges, and a magnify + glow style
- Annotation motion: Marching dashes, draw-on retrace and pulsing emphasis to hold attention during a live call. Solid or dashed on any annotation. Saved images and exports stay still.
- Snap to grid: Shift+G snaps annotations to a lattice with a cell size you pick. Hold Ctrl to place freely.
- Any colour you like: A custom picker sits alongside the nine presets, and the row now shows which colour you're actually drawing with.
- Multi-monitor, fixed (desktop): Drag the toolbar to any monitor, choose which screen to record, and keep annotations in place on full-screen saves. Blur, the magnifier and secondary windows all land on the right display.
- Toolbar rework: Picking a tool opens its style controls straight away, and you can take action buttons off the bar entirely.
- Settings, tidied: The toolbar gear now holds just the two things you change mid-task β which action buttons sit on the bar, and the snap grid size. Everything else moved to the options page, where it's grouped and easier to find.
- Accessibility polish: Focus rings appear instantly on every control, and hidden toolbars stay out of the tab order.
- Various bug fixes: GIFs now export at full device resolution and honour auto-copy, Pro no longer stays gated after activation, and the desktop toolbar registers your first click.
π WHAT'S NEW (v1.6.3)
- Accessibility Tooling that gives you visual representations to share with you teams
- Added Focus Path Recording: A new feature to track and visualize keyboard focus paths through a page
- Added Accessibility Scan: Integration with axe-core library for scanning accessibility issues
- Multi-select copy/duplicate/delete added
- resize annotations
π WHAT'S NEW (v1.5)
- Sketchpad, enhanced (extension): One button now opens it three ways β an in-page panel, a full blank tab, or a screenshot of the page ready to annotate. The blank and screenshot tabs even work on browser and PDF pages where the overlay can't run. Handy when a page pop-up blocks the in-page text tool.
- Editor window (desktop): Annotate any capture in a dedicated window before saving or exporting.
- Export panel: Copy your annotated image as an image, Markdown, or HTML β or save it straight to a file β from one place, on both platforms.
- Various bug fixes: Colour picker in the editor, desktop magnifier, Full-page capture fixes and general stability.
π WHAT'S NEW (v1.4)
- Custom Shape tool: Draw multi-point polygons and custom shapes β in both annotation overlays and the Sketchpad
- Annotation fixes: Cleaner arrow and circle rendering, no more stray keystrokes reaching the page
- Sketchpad polish: Smoother freehand drawing and a batch of stability fixes
- Security hardening: Reinforced app security
- Various Bug fixes
π WHAT'S NEW (v1.3)
- OCR text extraction: Extract text from screenshots with on-device OCR (no upload)
- Object fill options: Added solid as a fill option for Rectangle and Circle annotations
- Eβ¦
