Shottr can be used for free for as long as you want. Most of its features are available to free users; the main caveat is that the app will ask you to consider buying it every once in a while. Shottr generally provides a better overall experience in the activated version, and I plan to add more features and raise its price in the future.
Can Shottr upload the image online and copy link?
Shottr has the upload feature, but it needs to be activated. Here are more details on how it works.
Which macOS versions are supported?
Shottr runs on macOS Catalina (10.15) and up.
When and why does Shottr contact Shottr.cc?
After launch Shottr contacts https://shottr.cc/api/version.json to check for an update. It won't download a new version, but will notify you with a red icon in the toolbar. Shottr needs an internet connection to validate and activate the license. It also sends home telemetry to help me find bugs, measure performance and gauge popularity of certain features. Telemetry does not contain any personal or identifiable information. It's not used for advertising or retargeting purposes, and is never sold to the third parties. There's an option to turn off telemetry collection in the app Preferences. Earlier versions of Shottr included Google Analytics code, but it was removed in v1.5.1.
