LoopSnap v1.0.0 — Initial Release

First public release of LoopSnap, a native macOS screen-to-GIF recorder.

What's included

• Region capture — drag to select any area of any display before recording
• Live preview — see the last captured frame in real time inside the recorder window
• HUD overlay — a frameless, click-through overlay sits above the selected region while recording
• Timeline editor — scrub through every frame, delete unwanted ones, and preview playback before exporting
• GIF export — single-click export; GPU-accelerated frame processing via CoreImage
• Cursor capture — toggle whether the system cursor is included in the recording
• Adjustable FPS — choose the capture frame rate before you start

Requirements

• macOS 13 Ventura or later
• Screen Recording permission (System Settings → Privacy & Security → Screen Recording)
