Description

How much time do you waste retyping text from your screen? Screenshots, video tutorials, presentations, messages, IDE errors — everywhere there's text you just can't copy.

ScreenTexto fixes that: select area → get text. No hassle.

Real-life scenarios:

For developers

Capture an error message in your IDE (Xcode, VS Code, PyCharm…). No more painful multi-line selection. ScreenTexto extracts the full text instantly. Paste → search → fix.

During video presentations & webinars

Speaker shows a slide with a link, a number, a name. Don't pause and retype. One click — text is yours.

On sites & apps with copy protection

Copy disabled? No problem. Select area → get text. Works everywhere.

Studying or working with PDFs/images

Textbooks, manuals, video subtitles, memes — all become editable.

All screenshots are saved to a folder on your Mac

You always know where to find them — open via Finder anytime. No hidden storage, just your file system.
