Gyazo is an app that allows users to take screenshots of images and GIFs on their screens and then share them. The software was created by Toshiyuki Masui & Nota Inc.

What are the key features of Gyazo?

Images: One of the central features of Gyazo is the ability to take screenshots. Once you capture the image of your choice, Gyazo will create a unique link through which you will be able to share it.
Animated GIFs: Taking screenshots of still pictures isn’t Gyazo’s only feature: it can also capture animated GIFs. Moreover, users are also free to choose the length of the GIF, meaning that you don’t have to capture everything if you don’t want to.
Videos: In addition to the above, the Gyazo app allows users to capture full HD videos - this is very suitable for people with an online community, as it makes direct sharing easy and accessible. With Gyazo, capturing means uploading.
Interface: Another good advantage of Gyazo is its easy-to-use interface. Capturing images and videos from your screen is possible in two clicks. Also, everything you capture is automatically saved to your Gyazo account.

How to use Gyazo?

As mentioned above, Gyazo is very simple to use. Once you install the app, you have to click on the shortcut or icon to capture the elements of your choice. For GIFs and videos, you can even pause and relaunch the capture and stop it at the right moment. The app will next upload the result to your account and a window with the link to copy will appear. After that, you will only have to share this link to the app of your choice.

Is Gyazo free?

You can download and use this app for free. There is also a paid Pro version that costs $4.99 a month.

Is Gyazo safe?

It seems that the app has no history of security issues or abusive data collecting. As always, we recommend reading the official Privacy policy before installing: users have reported that Gyazo requires access to cameras.
