Your captures, on every device you own. PrintScreen.ly keeps your screenshots and recordings in one place across your Mac, your PC, and your phone. Capture on the desktop, then open this app to browse, organize, mark up, and share everything from your iPhone or iPad — already synced and ready. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Browse your full capture library, synced from your computers • Open any screenshot or recording and view it full-screen • Mark up screenshots with arrows, boxes, highlights, and text • Pull text out of a screenshot and copy it with one tap • Record your iPhone or iPad screen and keep the recording in your library • Create a shareable link and send a capture to anyone • Keep a shared clipboard moving between your phone and desktop • Organize, rename, and clean up captures on the go GOOD MOMENTS • Grab a screenshot off your desk while you're away and send it from your phone • Annotate a bug report on the couch and share the link in a message • Copy a phone number or address straight out of a screenshot • Show a client a recent capture without opening a laptop • Tidy up your library while you wait in line EVERYTHING STAYS IN SYNC Sign in once and your library follows you. A capture taken on your Mac or PC shows up here, and anything you mark up or share stays consistent everywhere. The web dashboard shows the same library in any browser. MARKUP THAT TRAVELS Add arrows, boxes, highlights, and text on top of any screenshot, right on your phone. Your edits save back to the library so the marked-up version is what you share. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your library is tied to your account and only you can see it. Shareable links are created on purpose, one capture at a time — nothing is public unless you choose to share it. PRINTSCREEN.LY PRO Pro unlocks the full app — your synced library, markup, text capture, sharing, and cross-device clipboard. Signing in is free; using the app requires Pro. Start with a 7-day free trial, then subscribe monthly, go annual to save, or pick up Lifetime as a one-time purchase. One sign-in unlocks PrintScreen.ly on your Mac, your PC, and your phone, plus the web dashboard. SIGN IN Sign in with Apple, Google, or email. The same sign-in works on the PrintScreen.ly app you install on your computers.

Verdict

The call

Floating Clock's advantage is iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
