Is it really free?

Every tool is free for 3 days, with no account and no card. After that, Hangar is a one-time payment from $45, with updates for the version you buy. There is no subscription.

Can I export with a transparent background?

No. Every export has a full background: Ambient, a gradient, a wallpaper, your own image or a solid color.

Can each screenshot get a different background?

Not in one export. One look applies to the batch. Export one group, change the settings, then export the next.

Can it match my brand colors?

Yes. Pick a Solid background in your brand color or use your own image as the wallpaper. Gradients can also be drawn from the shot’s own colors.

What shapes can I export?

Auto sizes to your shot, or choose a fixed ratio like 1:1, 4:3, 16:9, 4:5, or 9:16 for the platform you are posting to.

Can I round the corners and add a shadow?

Yes. Set the corner radius on the shot and choose a soft, heavy, or floating shadow, with padding around it.

Does anything get uploaded?

No. Your files are processed on your computer and never sent anywhere. Hangar sends anonymous usage counts to improve the app, never file names or contents, and you can turn that off in Settings.
