Quick screen capture for Gifs — Mac & PC

Taking screenshots as gifs can really help when explaining things in documentation and emails. It can also help brighten up otherwise really dull documents.

Currently I’m using Giphy’s newer tool called Capture. It’s mac only but offers a few more frills like start/end trimming, animated captions and more file-save options.

My favorite application for this has typically been Licecap. It’s barebones but bulletproof; it works always.

Do you have a favorite for quickly capturing gifs?
