WireView is a Mac utility for capturing iOS screens.

That’s the bulk of it.

Version 1.1.2 · March 8, 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.
Never leave the keyboard. Copy, save, record, open in Preview — it’s all right here at your fingertips!
Works with all your devices. Switch between connected devices from the menu bar without replugging anything.

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.
