What's great
This app is worth every penny just for how much time it saves on styling. It’s important to me that screenshots look polished: CleanShot automatically adds a nice background (padding) and shadow, hides desktop icons, and standardizes the window size. What I used to do manually in Figma now happens automatically. The result is ready to be sent to Slack or pasted into a presentation immediately - it always looks professional.
What needs improvement
vs Alternatives
Because of the attention to detail and aesthetics. It’s the only app that understands that a screenshot is a form of visual communication. The ability to automatically round corners, add padding, and drop shadows saves me hours of work in Figma. Plus, it works incredibly fast and feels like a native part of macOS, not third-party software.
What's great
I used to constantly have to resize my browser window or switch emulators one by one, but here I see the site on all the necessary screens at once. Synced scrolling and clicks work perfectly: click a button on one device, and the action happens everywhere. For those keeping an eye on layout quality across different breakpoints, this tool is indispensable.
What needs improvement
When running a large number of virtual devices simultaneously, the app starts consuming a lot of RAM, which is noticeable even on a powerful laptop. Performance optimization for heavy sessions would be a welcome addition.
