What’s New in Snagit 2025
Learn how Snagit's new features automate tedious tasks to make communication fast, efficient, and effective.
Automatically Create Step-by-Step Guides
Need to quickly document a process or workflow? Snagit’s Step Capture automatically grabs screenshots as you click through a process on the screen. Snagit quickly turns the screenshots into an editable visual guide with numbered steps for you.
Use Step Capture to:
- Help your staff get started with a new process or software.
- Show a customer how to submit a claim or make a change to their account.
- Provide informal training to address repeated questions.
- Document a software bug for developers to reproduce.
See Automatically Create a Step-by-Step Guide (Step Capture).
Automatically Redact Sensitive Information
Combing through screenshots to remove personal or confidential information is tedious and time consuming. Let Smart Redact do the work for you!
Smart Redact identifies and automatically covers sensitive information, such as contact information, credit card numbers, Social Security numbers, faces, and more.
To access Smart Redact in the Editor, select Blur tool > Smart Redact.
Tip: Customize redaction color in Snagit 2025.1.0 for Windows!
Now you can change the color of Smart Redact solid shapes to reduce the intensity or match your brand colors while maintaining data security. In the Smart Redact panel, click the Shape Color dropdown to open the color picker.
You must have Snagit for Windows version 2025.1.0 or later. To check for the latest update, in Snagit Capture select Help > Check for Updates.

Automatically Remove Background Noise
No need for a professional audio recording setup when you record video with Snagit! Say goodbye to background noise, such as fans, nearby conversations, dog barks, and keyboard taps.
Snagit automatically filters out background noise when you record video, so your audience can focus on you.
Choose a Virtual Webcam Background (Mac)
Keep the focus on you – not what’s behind you. Choose from any of Snagit’s built-in virtual backgrounds for your webcam recording. Or upload an image of your own to use as a background!
To access virtual backgrounds from the video recording toolbar, select Webcam Options > Virtual Backgrounds.
Note: Virtual backgrounds are not supported on Macs with Intel processors.
To learn more, see Record a Picture-in-Picture Video.
Remove the Background from an Image (Mac)
The Remove Background option on Snagit for Mac automatically removes the background from photos and still images, even when the background is not a solid color.
Right-click or control+click an image in the Editor and select the Remove Background option.
To learn more, see Remove a Background.
Customizable Share Link Button
The Share Link button in Snagit Editor is a quick and easy way to share your image or video capture with anyone. If your organization prefers, your IT admin can customize Share Link to send captures to OneDrive or Google Drive rather than the Screencast default.
To learn more about Share Link, see Get a Shareable Link.
IT admins can refer to the Snagit Deployment Tool Guide on our Enterprise Deployment and Rollout Resources page.
Apply a Gradient (Mac)
Add more color to your captures and annotations. Now you can add a gradient to an image background or use as a fill color for the Shape, Callout, and Fill tools.
