Field notes
The workflow starts with a pasted, dropped, or opened image and ends with a clipboard copy or PNG save. The page documents shortcuts for both Mac and Windows, and lists pixelation or blackout for private details alongside arrows, shapes, labels, and numbered steps. It also explains how to install the editor from supported browsers for offline use.
