TetherShot
Pixel-perfect iPhone screenshots, straight to your Mac
TetherShot turns iPhone screenshot capture into one Mac keystroke. It grabs the actual device frame over USB or local Wi-Fi, saves a pixel-perfect PNG to your chosen folder, and copies it to the clipboard. Use the native app, optional menu-bar controls, or ⌘⇧7 from anywhere. Unlike mirroring-and-cropping workflows, it captures the frame directly and keeps everything local. No account, telemetry, cloud upload, or servers. Free, MIT-licensed, and built in Swift for macOS.
Hey Product Hunt! 👋
I built TetherShot because capturing an iPhone screen from a Mac still takes too many steps. QuickTime can mirror a phone, but it does not provide a fast screenshot-to-folder-and-clipboard workflow, and many wireless approaches depend on cloud services.
TetherShot captures the actual iPhone frame over USB or local Wi-Fi, then saves it directly to your chosen folder and copies it to the clipboard. You can capture from the native Mac app, optional menu-bar controls, or with ⌘⇧7 from anywhere.
It supports per-device folders, launch at login, and automatic updates—without an account, analytics, cloud uploads, or external servers. Everything stays on your Mac.
TetherShot is free, open source, and MIT-licensed. I would love feedback on the capture workflow, USB/Wi-Fi reliability, and what would make it more useful for developers, designers, support teams, and app makers.
