About Penbar
Draw straight on your screen while you present, teach, or record.
ScreenPen lives in the menu bar and stays out of the way until you need it. One shortcut and the whole display becomes a canvas: sketch over any app, circle the button you are talking about, then clear it and carry on.
DRAW ON ANY APP
• Pen, highlighter, straight lines, arrows, rectangles, ellipses and text
• Five quick colors plus a custom color picker, and adjustable line width
• Undo, redo and clear all — every tool has a keyboard shortcut
• Auto-erase wipes your marks after a few seconds, so nothing is left behind
WHITEBOARD
• Switch to a blank canvas when the desktop gets in the way
• Export the board as a PNG
CURSOR HIGHLIGHT
• A colored halo follows the pointer so viewers can keep up on a call
• Click ripples make every click visible in a recording
SPOTLIGHT
• Dim everything except the area around your pointer and pull attention to one spot
ZOOM
• A live magnifier follows the cursor for small text and fine detail
BUILT FOR PRESENTING
• Global shortcuts for every mode, all reassignable
• Works across multiple displays
• No Dock icon and no windows in the way — just a menu bar icon
• Launch at login, and it reopens with your last tool
PRIVACY
ScreenPen does not collect, store or share any data. No accounts, no analytics, no third-party services, no network access. Screen content is processed on your Mac and is never recorded or transmitted. Zoom is the only feature that asks for Screen Recording permission, and only so it can magnify what is already on your display.
