PixelSnap v2.6.3 for Mac
PixelSnap 2 by Make the Web is a screen measurement utility for designers and developers: measure distances and objects on screen, add alignment guides, and export measurement screenshots—across any app.
Version 2.6.3 refines guide placement and snapping behavior for faster, more precise layout work.
What’s new in v2.6.3
- Arrow-key guide tuning: fine-tune guide position with the arrow keys while adding a new guide
- Smarter snapping: improved guide interactions and more reliable snap behavior
Recent releases also added macOS 26 Tahoe compatibility (v2.6.2), screenshot padding preview (v2.6.1), and session restore, guide snapping to areas, and Shift-constrained resizing (v2.6).
Key features
- Measure distance between UI elements; hold dimensions on screen and copy values to the clipboard
- Measure objects by dragging a snap rectangle; measure multiple objects at once
- Snappable guides with distances between guides and alignment to screen elements
- Screenshots of measurements; integration with CleanShot X
- Design tool integrations: Sketch, Figma, Adobe XD, and Affinity—real dimensions regardless of canvas zoom
- Crosshair mode, tolerance for shadows/low contrast, global hotkeys, light/dark UI, Retina and multi-display support
