You’ll also find some other nifty settings for screenshots in that Options menu, including the ability to toggle thumbnails on and off, whether or not to show the mouse cursor in screen recordings and shots, a timer delay to start the recording, and more. You can also preemptively change where a recording is saved by pressing Command + Shift + 5 on your keyboard and then clicking “Options”. Right-click (or control + click) the preview that appears in the bottom-right corner of the screen immediately after ending the recording, and you’ll find sharing options available.

Sure, if you need to do any fancy editing or add any whizbang effects, you’re probably going to need to look elsewhere.
