JPG Export: Save Disk Space During Long Capture Sessions

Based on user feedback about disk space filling up during long screenshot capture sessions, we've introduced JPG export to help you capture more while using less storage.

The Problem We Solved

Many users reported running out of disk space during extended screenshot capture sessions. A typical session capturing hundreds of screenshots could easily consume several GB of storage with PNG files.

The Solution: JPG Export

🎯 Customize compression level – Adjust the compression level
