Not the person you’re replying to but CleanShotX [0] is my favorite tool for this. Yes macOS has improved their screenshot annotation tools but they suck compared to CleanShotX. I take way more screenshots now to covey information and it’s invaluable to quickly explain a UI. I make guides for work or my clients with it all the time. I use it to highlight the button they need to click, label “1”, “2”, “3”, for the order of operations, pixelate data that isn’t important or I want to hide, and more.
Yes I could open the screenshot in a photo editor or similar but it’s so quick to do in CleanShotX that in literally less than 5 seconds I can: take a screenshot, highlight what I’m talking about, and have the image sent off to my coworker. Being so fast it reduces the friction to 0. I highly recommend it.
