Permissions

FoxSnip requests permissions per feature. Missing one disables only what depends on it.

For: area / window / full screen, scrolling capture, region record preview/export.

Without it: no screen pixels — capture and region record fail.

Grant: System Settings → Privacy & Security → Screen Recording → FoxSnip. Restart or capture again if status is stale.

For: Shift + control pick during window capture.

Without it: whole-window capture still works.

For: region record pointer/keyboard HUD (Plus / Pro).

Without it: recording works; no key/mouse overlay.

FoxSnip is screen-first; mic/camera are mainly for shared platform / FoxClip. Skip if unused.

  • Missing from privacy list: trigger capture or remove/re-add FoxSnip.
  • Granted but not detected: quit FoxSnip fully and relaunch.
  • Multi-display issues: ensure Screen Recording is granted for your local GUI session.
