Screenshot Annotator

A free screenshot annotator that runs entirely in your browser. Draw arrows and boxes, blur sensitive details, and add text, with nothing uploaded.

Runs in your browser · nothing uploaded

Drop, paste, or upload a screenshot

Tip: press Ctrl/Cmd+V anywhere on this page to paste a screenshot from your clipboard.

Drawing tool

Everything happens on your device. Your image is never uploaded or sent anywhere.

Add an image to start annotating.

A screenshot usually needs a bit of markup before it is useful to someone else: an arrow pointing at the bug, a box around the setting, a blurred name or account number. This tool adds all of that directly in your browser.

Drop in an image from a file, a drag, or a straight paste from your clipboard. Draw over it with arrows, boxes, highlights or text, blur out anything private, then download the result. The image never leaves your device.

Questions about the annotator

How do I blur part of a screenshot?
Pick the blur tool, drag it over the area you want to hide, and that region is blurred directly on the image.
How do I annotate a screenshot without downloading software?
This tool runs in your browser. Load an image, draw on it, and export. Nothing to install.
How do I blur out a face in a screenshot?
Use the blur tool over the face the same way you would blur any other detail, then export.
Is there a free screenshot annotator that does not upload my image to a server?
Yes. The image is loaded and drawn on entirely in your browser and is never sent anywhere.
