If the receiving app accepts image attachments, use its Share or attach control to send the screenshot directly. If it cannot accept images—or you need a reusable URL—upload the screenshot to a hosting destination and send the resulting link. Before uploading, check the image for private details.

Choose the right way to share

  • Send the image directly: Best when the recipient’s chat, email, or other destination accepts image attachments. On Android, you can share a saved screenshot through Photos or Gallery.
  • Send a URL: Useful when the destination accepts links but not image attachments, or when you want a hosted link to reuse. The link’s access and lifespan depend on the destination; do not assume an upload is private or permanent.
  • Pick the right link: Some services can link to a post containing multiple images or to an individual image. Choose based on what you want the recipient to see.

Share a screenshot from Windows with ShareX

ShareX is a Windows application that can capture a screen or selected area, edit the image, upload it to a chosen destination, and copy or share the resulting link. Its upload destination is configurable, so choose the one you intend to use. ShareX

  1. Capture the full screen, a window, a monitor, or a selected region.
  2. Open the image in the editor if you need to crop, annotate, blur, or pixelate it. See the ShareX image editor documentation for its editing tools.
  3. Inspect any redactions closely at high zoom. For highly sensitive details, cropping them out is safer than relying only on a visual cover.
  4. Upload the image to your configured destination. ShareX can copy, open, shorten, or share the resulting link.
  5. Paste the URL into the intended chat, ticket, forum, or document. If access matters, check that the recipient can open it; the destination’s access rules determine who can view it.

Get a short link with Lightshot

Lightshot describes a desktop workflow in which you select an area, edit the capture if needed, upload it to its server, and receive a short link to share. Its page lists Windows, Mac, and browser options, but the footer’s copyright range ends in 2022; check the current download and compatibility details before choosing it. Lightshot

Share a saved screenshot on Android

To send the image through another app, open Photos or Gallery, find the screenshot—often in a Screenshots album—and tap Share, then choose the receiving app. The exact controls can vary by device. Google’s Android screenshot instructions also describe scrolling screenshots on Android 12 and up on most screens that allow scrolling. Sharing through an app does not by itself create a public web URL.

Share an Imgur post or an individual image

Use the post link when you want someone to see the whole post. If the post contains several images and you want to point to just one, copy that image’s URL or use its image-specific share option. Imgur’s help page describes copying a post link or image URL on desktop; in its Android and iOS apps, use the share icon for a post or long-press an image or GIF for image-specific options. BBCodes are available only on desktop. Imgur’s sharing instructions

Check for private information before sharing

A screenshot may include account identifiers, names, addresses, notification previews, or private messages outside the area you meant to capture. Review the entire image before sending or uploading it. If editing sensitive information, zoom in to confirm the redaction fully covers it; when practical, crop the information out instead of merely covering it. A hosted link should not be treated as private or temporary unless the destination’s current documentation confirms those properties.
