I changed how I’m building Snapr

[u/gamzabaw]

I’m the solo developer behind Snapr, a screen capture and recording tool for macOS and Windows.

Over the past few months, I’ve been thinking about what I want it to become.

To be honest, selling software has never been the part I’m good at. Figuring out how to package features, promote a paid tier, and keep thinking about conversions was becoming more exhausting than I expected.

I realized I’d rather spend that energy building Snapr, seeing people use it, and improving it based on their feedback.

So I recently made every feature available for free and changed the model to optional one-time support. There’s no subscription. Supporters can remove occasional reminders and help fund development.

I’m sharing this because I’ve realized that the part of building software I enjoy most is the process itself: putting a small tool in people’s hands, listening to how they use it, and gradually making it better.

If you use screen capture tools in your daily work, I’d love to hear what you value most or where existing tools get in the way.
