I also really like that when you make a screencap, it automatically copies the share link, saving me one step. > > **Cons**: I think I like the least is that the canvas is limited to the photo itself; I cannot use the markups outside of the photos, and hard when there is text on the other side I cannot block since I need that info. > > I was looking for a way to easily and effortless mark up documents and pictures to send messages to my team about changes that needed to be made on documents, videos, pictures, etc. ----- ### "One of the best "small" apps I own" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *17 February 2022* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: When I first saw this I thought "why would I pay to take screenshots?" but oh boy, is it so much more than that\! I literally use it several times a day. It's like it's part of my operating system. I love the speed of it, the ease of annotation (and blurring of private information on screenshots too). So easy and fast to share things with people. > > **Cons**: CNAME setup with SSL is unusually tricky so I've never got around to setting that up. > > Literally makes my life easier in a way I never imagined for such a "simple" app. I have a feeling one day it will be standard in all operating systems but for now, more than happy with Markup Hero. ----- ### "Great app but highlighter too heavy" — 5.0/5 > **Nicola** | *12 June 2022* | Primary/Secondary Education | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: Colours, easy to use. It is bright and I like the simplicity > > **Cons**: Highlighter too heavy. I require the highlighter to make sentences clearer for primary students but then after I have used the highlighter I can barely see the writing > > Good but what I need it for is not as effective as I would like ----- ### "A powerfull every day tool for everyone whatever your business is" — 4.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *15 April 2021* | Entertainment | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: No learning curve at all. you log in, you upload your document and ... you start immediately to annotate or crop or ... in less than 5mins Also web app is very quick , no latency. Didn't experience any bugs at all. I didn't try yet to work on several pages document. this is my next move. i got it on AppSumo as a lifetime deal. but even the regular subscription plan is a great deal (4$ /mo) > > **Cons**: no cons. one small request : i'd wish the document keep its original file name once task is done and it's exported so we don't need to rename it again once we download it (all exported marked up documents are named "markupheroxxxxx.pdf" > > i use it every day for quite everything : - docs or screenshot i want to annote for my partners - content i want to enrich for my students (i give training for time to time) - invoices or bills i need to annotate for my accounter .. I use it with Google Chrome. didn't try with Firefox This works smoothly. You can keep an history of all previously annotated document ----- ### "Simple and strong solution for screenshot & annotations" — 5.0/5 > **Mert** | *28 August 2020* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Markup Hero helps me and my team quickly take screenshots, annotate, and keep each other updated with our SaaS product development \& marketing efforts. I switched to it from MacOS's default screenshot service because: - I often save screenshots and then have to delete them to keep my desktop in order, - It's hard to add annotations, arrows on it, - And it's definitely hard to upload images. With Markup Hero, your screenshots are instantly uploaded and you can add text, shapes, etc in seconds and share them. > > **Cons**: Nothing so far. I know this is a startup yet and the team is working hard to make Markup Hero better. > > \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\], one of the \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\], has been really helpful and responsive. I really hope to see Markup Hero at the top of the category soon :) ----- Page: 1 / 4\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/233014/markup-hero?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/233014/markup-hero) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
