Screenshot and share your fluid

Capture a frame

Tap Screenshot on the dock. The site downloads a PNG of the current frame. Pause first if you want a still composition.

The download happens on your device. Nothing uploads and no account is needed.

Pause when the shapes look right instead of tapping Screenshot mid-swirl. Raise Quality first on a desktop if the image needs to hold detail at a larger size.

Share a starting point

Copy link writes preset and quality into the URL. Someone else opens the same starting mode. Their strokes still happen on their device.

This matters for anyone comparing notes, like two people on a call trying to describe the same look. Instead of explaining which slider to raise and which to lower, you send a link and both screens start from the identical setup.

The link only sets the starting point. Once the other person opens it, their own strokes, their own pauses, and their own screenshots are entirely their doing. Nothing you painted travels with the link.

Mode pages help

Send ink mode or water mode when you want the other person to land on a tuned feel without hunting chips.

A mode page locks its preset by default, so the look stays put before they paint. Mode pages also carry tips and FAQs for that look. The same pattern works for fire mode or calm mode.

Record a short clip

When one frame is not enough, press Record on the dock and press Stop when you are done. The clip saves locally so you can post it or drop it into an editor.

Recording captures the canvas exactly as it renders on your screen, including whatever preset and quality are active at the time. Lower quality keeps the file size and encoding load lighter, which matters more on a phone than on a desktop.

A short clip usually communicates more than a screenshot when the point is motion itself, like how a swirl rolls or how fast dye fades. Pick a steady mode rather than a chaotic one if the clip needs to loop cleanly.

What a shared link contains

A copied link carries only the preset name and quality setting. It does not carry your strokes or any personal data.

There is no hidden tracking parameter. The link is a short query string the page reads on load to pick a preset and quality level. Anyone can read that string in the address bar.

The Privacy Policy covers what stays local, including hosting logs and what the site collects on a normal visit.
