Nine41 icon

Screenshots that look like Apple shot them. Always 9:41.

Drop an iPhone or iPad screenshot on Nine41 and Apple's clean 9:41 status bar replaces the real one, in the right light or dark variant, in one drag. Use it on your Mac or right inside Photos.

Drag. Done.

No dropdowns, no device pickers, no lining things up by hand at midnight before a submission.

  1. Drop a screenshot

    Drag it in, paste it, or open it.

  2. Nine41 detects the device

    It works out which iPhone or iPad the screenshot came from.

  3. Nine41 clears the old bar

    It analyses the status bar, removes its items and fills in the background.

  4. Nine41 adds the new one

    New status bar content suited to the device and the background colour is applied.

  5. Save or copy

    Save the file, or copy it to the clipboard.

Detection

It knows your device

Nine41 identifies the exact iPhone or iPad from the screenshot itself, so there is nothing to configure before you drop.

Automatic

Light or dark, handled

Light or dark status bar content is applied based on an analysis of your screenshot. Prefer to choose the colour yourself? Set it in the options.

Native

A native Mac app

A native AppKit app, built with Apple's own frameworks. No web views, no cross-platform layers.

Menu bar

Lives in your menu bar too

Keep Nine41 in the menu bar and drop a screenshot on its popover for a quick fix. Closing the window leaves it running quietly, and it can open at login.

Photos

Right inside Photos

Open a screenshot in Photos, choose Edit, and Nine41 is there as an extension. Swap the bar, save, and you never leave Photos.

Customize

Customize the status bar

Choose the time, 12 or 24-hour, and which parts of the real bar to keep, such as Focus, a call or the app name.

Safe

Your files, your rules

Overwrite the original, save a copy, or save the new file and move the original to the Trash. PNG, JPEG and HEIC come back in the format they went in.

Options

Replace it or remove it

Prefer no status bar at all? Remove it instead. Set any time you like, keep the parts of the real bar you want, and watch a live preview before you save.

Free to start. Unlock it once.

No watermark, ever. A watermarked screenshot is no use to anyone.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Nine41?

Nine41 is a Mac app that replaces the status bar in an iPhone or iPad screenshot with Apple's clean marketing bar: 9:41, full signal, Wi-Fi and battery. Drop a screenshot on it and it works out the device and the light or dark variant for you.

When is Nine41 available?

Nine41 is coming soon to the Mac App Store.

Is Nine41 free?

Nine41 is a free download. You get 3 free exports to start, then 1 free export per day. A one-time purchase, Nine41 Pro, unlocks unlimited exports, and Nine41 Pro is included with an active Screenshots Pro Premium subscription. There is no watermark at any tier.

Does Nine41 upload my screenshots?

No. All processing happens on your Mac. Nine41 never uploads, stores or sees your screenshots. The Photos extension only works on the photo you choose to edit, and Nine41 doesn't read the rest of your library.

Will Nine41 overwrite my original screenshots?

Only if you choose to. Nine41 can overwrite the original file, save a copy, or save the new file and move the original to the Trash. It keeps the original format and quality, so PNG, JPEG and HEIC files come back as the same type.

What does Nine41 need to run?

A Mac running macOS 26 or later. It works on screenshots from iPhone and iPad.

Is a new iPhone or iPad supported?

New devices are added in an update, so your screenshots from the latest hardware are ready when Apple's are. If a device is missing, tell us at studio@loveform.ca.
