Screenshots have been around since the 1960s when engineers and scientists from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology came up with the idea of a new image type that captures a computer screen. Then, students have been using them to capture, annotate, and share lecture notes for self-study at a later time. Social media users have been grabbing comments and images, and then sharing and reposting them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Screenshots became popular for good reasons. Humans are visual creatures<\/a>. A picture doesn\u2019t just leave a lasting impression; it often makes communication easier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That\u2019s true at work, too. While instant messaging apps<\/a>, video conferencing software, and project management tools have revolutionized the workplace, simple screenshots can transform everyday workflows and team communication<\/a> as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How exactly? And which screenshot apps are the best?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here, I will examine both. Read on for the 10 best apps to instantly capture your screen. And then get a few best practices to get the most out of your screenshots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Is a Screenshot?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A screenshot, sometimes known as a screen grab or screencap, is an image displaying the contents of your device\u2019s display at a given time. By capturing your screen and producing a copy, screenshots preserve what you see exactly as you\u2019re seeing it, which you can either share with others or reference for later use. Screenshots also act as digital evidence that you\u2019re seeing what you actually look at on the screen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
