Tamofy
point it out

macOS takes good screenshots. What it doesn't do is let you say something about one.
Tamofy is that part. Drop a picture in, point at what matters, and send it - usually before you'd have finished describing it in words.
GETTING A PICTURE IN
• Drop a file on a window, or on the menu bar icon.
• ⌃⇧A - a new window from whatever is on the clipboard, from anywhere. Capture a region with macOS own shortcut, press ⌃⇧A, and you're drawing.
• ⌃⇧T - a blank canvas, from anywhere.
• Open…, Open With from the Finder, or ⌘V into a window that already open.
MARKING IT
Every tool is a single key. No modifiers, no chords.
A - Arrows that bend in the middle, with a head that keeps its shape
T - Text with an outline that stays readable on any picture
S - Boxes, squares, ellipses and lines
D - Freehand drawing
H - Highlighter strokes and straight bands
N - Numbered pins that fill the lowest number not in use
M - A magnifier: a small circle on the detail, a larger one showing it
P - Pixelation, for what shouldn't be shared
C - Crop
So is every colour. 1 to 8 are red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, white and black, in the order they sit on the palette; 0 opens the colour picker for anything else. [ and ] step the thickness down and up.
Hold Control to constrain - angles snap, boxes square up, a move locks to one axis.
Hold Option to drag out a copy.
Hold Command to grab a mark while a pen is in hand.
SET UP THE WAY YOU WORK
• The tools sit in a rail down the left edge, or in a bar that floats over the foot of the picture. Settings picks between them, and sizes the floating one.
• ⌥⌘T takes the tools away entirely when the picture wants the whole window. Nothing is lost: every tool, colour and thickness still has its key, and the pointer carries the tool it is holding, drawn in the colour it will draw in.
• Every one of those keys can be changed. Re-record any tool, colour or thickness key in Settings, and the three shortcuts that reach Tamofy from inside another app as well.
GETTING IT OUT
• Drag the picture straight out of the window into a message, a document or a folder. Nothing is written until the other side takes it.
• ⇧⌘C puts a PNG on the clipboard.
• ⌘E writes a PNG to your Pictures folder. Export As… asks where.
• ⌘S saves a Tamofy document that reopens with every mark still selectable and movable. Send the PNG, keep the document.
CLOSED IT BY MISTAKE
⇧⌘T brings back the last window you closed - picture, marks, position and zoom intact, and still knowing the file it came from.
⌃⇧R does the same with Tamofy in the background. It survives quitting and restarting, because what was closed is written to disk.
ALSO WORTH KNOWING
• PNG, JPEG and HEIC open. A saved document keeps the picture in the format it arrived in.
• Undo everything, including a crop and a pixelation, until you deliberately flatten it.
• One window per picture, no tabs - marking up means comparing what you just did against the next thing.

THE TOOLS HAVE A SECOND HOME
They can now sit in a bar that floats over the foot of the picture, instead of the rail down the left edge. Settings -> Editor switches between Classic and Modern look and sizes for modern one.
And they can go away entirely - ⌥⌘T hides whichever bar you chose, for when the picture wants the whole window - every tool still has its key, and the pointer shows which one is in hand.
COLOURS ARE ON THE NUMBER ROW
1 to 8 for the palette, 0 for the picker. There is a Colours menu under Tools that shows which key is which, with the current one ticked.
KEYS YOU CHOOSE
Every tool, colour and thickness key can be re-recorded in Settings -> Editor.
