Characteristics

Captures

Monosnap has two capture modes: the first captures the entire screen (or screens). The second mode captures an area or window of the screen. In the latter mode, a magnifying glass appears, showing the size of the selected rectangle and the pixel color under the cursor.

Image editor

After taking a screenshot, Monosnap opens its editor with tools like a pen, line, rectangle, oval, arrow, text, and blur. It also has a tool to remove unnecessary details if they weren't removed while capturing a screenshot.

After the capture

There are several options to proceed with screenshot, available from settings:

Cloud storage

Using cloud storage requires registration with Facebook or email. All uploads can be accessed via the web, and images can be sorted into folders. There is currently no limit on cloud storage.

However, there appears to be a limit on the traffic generated by accessing uploads, and the user can be banned afterward.
