WireView is a Mac utility for capturing iOS screens.
That’s the bulk of it.
Version 1.2.1 · April 17, 2026 ·
Features
Always ready.Plug in your device. That’s it. No setup, no AirPlay, no latency.
Grab anything off the screen.Apple calls this “Live Text,” but it’s actually a small man that lives inside your computer and he has to transcribe everything very quickly. He’s quite good at it.
Works with all your devices.
Switch between connected devices from the menu bar without replugging
anything.
Pro Tips
Design QA without the round-trip.
Crop to a specific component, ⌘C, paste straight into Figma. No intermediary
files, no export dialog, no Slack uploads. The fastest way to get device pixels
into your design tool. I used to Xerox my phone screen and scan it in; this is way better.
Copy text off the device.
Live Text + ⌘C to grab error messages, URLs, or strings visible on screen
during debugging. Faster than typing it out or AirDropping a screenshot.
Multi-device version testing.
Switch between devices from the menu bar without moving your hands —
useful when you're checking the same flow across iOS versions.
The clock disappears.
WireView fakes status bar indicators and clock for clean,
consistent captures. Always 9:41, full signal, full battery.
Send right to your app of choice.
Set “Open in” to CleanShot X, Preview, or Pixelmator and ⌘O lets you annotate immediately.
