What do you think about Snip? Do you have a favorite screenshot taking app? Tell us in the comments below.Microsoft Snipping Tool (Snip & Sketch) is a lightweight and highly useful pre-installed application inside Windows 10 and Windows 11 operating systems, enabling users of all ages to quickly and reliably capture regions of desktop space as static screenshots. Also, you can use this great and useful application as a program on your computer and desktop/laptop!

Snip is available now in beta and you can download it now from Office Mix. The tool is very basic, but includes all you need for basic screenshot taking and more. You can annotate screenshots and create narrative videos with Snip using a keyboard and mouse, but you’ll find that it works best on tablets, such as the Surface Pro 3, and touch capable laptops. Snip also features its own taskbar with three buttons to take a screenshot, to open a whiteboard, and a button to take a picture using your computer’s camera. Other tools available with Snip include: a pen with different sizes and basic colors for annotation, an eraser, the ability to copy the screenshot to the clip board, and a few other options. If you want to embed or share a link, the video or screenshot will get uploaded automatically to Office Mix. Once you’re done with the screenshot or video, you can simply save it or share it with other people.
