Mark it up without leaving

⌘E opens an editor that works in layers. Nothing you draw gets baked into the image until you export.

Pick a tool, then draw on the shot

How it works

1
Tap an annotation to select it, then drag to move it
01

What you draw stays an object

Arrows, rectangles, lines, the pen, text, numbered steps, spotlights, and pixelation are all vector objects. You can select, move, recolor, and delete them, and text stays editable text until you export. A shot reopened from history loads its annotations back exactly, so you can move yesterday's arrow today.

Grab the handle under the file and drop it on the canvas
02

The canvas is editable too

Crop to a fixed ratio or freely, round the corners, add a background, or expand the canvas to place a second photo beside the first. Bring in another image with 'Add Image' on the toolbar, or just drag a file onto the editor and it drops in. A frame sets the composition, and the photos inside it each move, resize, and rotate independently. Placing a subject you've cut out onto a new background finishes in the same canvas too.

Undo works two ways

⌘Z steps back one change at a time, while the revert button on the toolbar jumps straight back to the original you had when you opened the editor. After background removal, a crop, and four annotations, one button beats pressing ⌘Z ten times. That revert is itself one undo step, so pressing it by mistake is a single ⌘Z away from fixed.

When you'd use it

Explaining a screen

Point things out with arrows, numbered steps, and spotlights, without opening a design tool.

Redacting before you share

Pixelate just the account number and leave the rest readable. The covered pixels never leave the canvas.

Turning two shots into one

Expand the canvas and place a second shot beside the first, so you can hand over one image instead of two.

Questions about this

Does what I draw get burned into the image?

Not until you export. It stays an object you can move and delete, and reopening a saved shot loads it back exactly as it was.

Can I edit a shot from yesterday?

Yes. Reopen it from history and the editor picks up right where it left off.

Does the pixelate tool really erase the pixels?

In the exported image, yes. It renders from the edited canvas, so the covered part never makes it into the file you share.

Mark it up right where it is
