The subject refers to a software application developed by Ambrosia Software, primarily designed for screen capture and recording on macOS. This utility allowed users to create screenshots of specific regions or the entire screen, and to record screen activity as movies.
This tool provided a valuable function for creating tutorials, documenting software issues, or simply sharing visual information. Its features included options for audio recording, customizable hotkeys, and various video encoding settings. Historically, it filled a niche in the macOS ecosystem before the operating system’s built-in screen recording capabilities became more robust and readily available.
