macOS screen recording captures your cursor moving around, but it never shows when you click. Viewers are left guessing whether you tapped a button or just hovered over it. macshot adds a visible click highlight so every interaction reads clearly.
macshot's screen recorder records MP4 or animated GIF at up to 120fps, captures system audio, and lets you annotate on screen while recording. When you're done, trim and export in the built-in video editor.
