Yoink for Mac, my app that drastically simplifies drag and drop, is now available in v3.6.104, fixing a bunch of bugs and minor issues. Also, in addition to being available on the Mac App Store and Setapp, it is now available for purchase directly from my website (joining ScreenFloat and DeskMat).

What is Yoink?

Yoink is a temporary place for your file drags. Whether you want to collect images from a website, text snippets from a document, or move files around in Finder, Yoink offers a “shelf” you can place them in so you can move freely to the files’ actual destination. It can hold virtually anything you can drag and appears whenever you start to drag something. It’s also highly customizable to fit your needs.

What’s New in Yoink v3.6.104?

It isn’t a sexy release, but a good one nonetheless, fixing a bunch of bugs and minor issues, like the shelf sometimes not appearing in different spaces, and improved Force Touch handling.
It now also shows release notes in-app and allows for completely voluntary in-app tipping. The app remains a one-time lifetime purchase, and the update is free for existing customers.

ScreenFloat v2.3 – a major update to your Mac’s Screen Capture All-Rounder – is now available, offering a new Recording HUD, “Edit Markers”, GIF creation, and more!

“Outstanding App”

Chuck’s Review @ Mac App Store

What is ScreenFloat?

ScreenFloat is your Mac’s Screen Capture Power Tool.
Capture screenshots and recordings that float above other windows, allowing you to reference anything on your screen, anywhere. It’s like Picture-in-Picture, only for screen captures.
It keeps your Desktop clutter-free, as every capture you make is stored in its Shots Browser, where you can manage, organize and find your shots. They’re also synced across your Macs over iCloud.
Easily copy the non-copyable, as ScreenFloat recognizes text, barcode and faces in your shots, which also allows you to effortlessly redact sensitive parts of your screenshots.
Add non-destructive annotations, redactions and markup, crop, “fold“, resize, or de-retinize your shots. Quickly pick colors.
Mute, trim and cut your recordings with the aid of “edit markers” you can place while recording.
Create shareable and embeddable links for your captures using iCloud, ImageKit.io or Cloudinary.com.
And so much more.

A screenshot is just a screenshot. Until you use ScreenFloat.

What’s New in ScreenFloat 2.3

Aside from many minor improvements and bug fixes (like new double-click actions and better compatibility for multi-audio-tracks in other apps), here are this version’s highlights.

Recording HUD

The Recording HUD allows you to mute and unmute audio, pause, resume and stop your recording, and place “edit markers”.

Edit Markers

Edit markers you place while recording help you cut your video later on.
They’re highlights on the recording’s timeline and show you places of interest.
ScreenFloat places edit markers automatically when you change audio settings, pause your recording, and when you switch apps or spaces.

GIF Creation

Create GIFs from your recordings by cropping, trimming, and adjusting the quality.

Better Data Usage / OCR

Instantly use, copy or redact clicked data like links, emails, addresses, numbers and QR codes.

Custom File Naming Scheme

Change shots’ titles to accommodate your needs.
You can also make use of this for exports, where the scheme can be completely custom, too.

Continuity Markup

In addition to ScreenFloat’s Markup functionality, you can now use Quick Look to annotate your shots, which is especially useful if you like to use your iPad and Apple Pencil to do so.
In ScreenFloat fashion, this has been custom built to also support non-destructiveness.

Smaller Improvement Highlights

  • Fullscreen captures are now easier to do – just press the respective keyboard shortcut a second time
  • “Add Border” drag-out option to prevent “bleed” into the background (video)
  • Redactions are now custom-fitted to their underlying content
  • Randomize filename when dragging floating shots (image)
  • New double-click action to quickly add numbered list items, checkmarks or x-marks (video)
  • New double-click action to quickly redact data like emails, links, addresses, etc (video)
  • “Add Tag” double-click action now supports multiple tags (image)
  • Annotations can now have shadows

A note on in-app purchases: These are completely voluntary tips you can give me to support me and the development of my apps beyond the one-time purchase price. No additional functionality can be unlocked by giving tips. Your one-time purchase gives you to the complete functionality of ScreenFloat.
