TetherShot - One hotkey. Any phone. Screenshot on your Mac instantly.

by•
Every phone screenshot on Mac is a workaround — until now. TetherShot: native macOS app. Connect iPhone or Android over USB/Wi‑Fi, hit ⌘⇧7, frame saved to folder + clipboard. No account. No upload. No AirPlay hacks. Why bookmark it: • iPhone USB + Wi‑Fi + Android ADB in one app • Pixel-perfect — actual device frame, not a mirror • Menu bar + global hotkey from any app • 100% local. Zero telemetry. MIT open source • Homebrew, signed DMG, or npm For devs and creators who screenshot phones daily.

Hey Product Hunt 👋 — I'm Apoorv, maker of TetherShot. TL;DR: I got sick of broken iPhone screenshots on Mac, so I built a native utility that captures iPhone + Android in one keystroke. Local. Free. Open source. The backstory: I screenshot my phone constantly — bug reports, tweets, docs, design reviews. Every path sucked: → QuickTime / AirPlay? Screen goes black when you capture. → Cloud tools? Sign up, upload your screen, wait. → ADB scripts? Works, but not a Mac-native workflow. So I built the thing I actually wanted: ⌘⇧7 from anywhere → PNG saved + copied to clipboard iPhone over USB or Wi‑Fi. Android over ADB. Same app. Close the window — it keeps running in your menu bar. No login. No servers. Your screenshots never leave your Mac. It's MIT licensed, installs via Homebrew or a signed DMG, and I'd genuinely love your feedback: 1. Would you use this for iPhone, Android, or both? 2. Is ⌘⇧7 the right default hotkey? 3. What's still missing? I'll be here all day answering every comment. Try it and tell me what breaks 🙏 → →
