Mockup Editor is a free tool for easily adding arrows, callouts, etc.

I used Balsamiq to create layouts. I use the trial version, so I have all the screens in one layout instead of several files. I want to send the export of these layouts to my team so that they can comment on them. They should be able to easily add arrows, callouts, text, etc. I know that you can do some of them in Balsamiq, but this is not done for these types of comments. I used Paint.net and added them to separate layers, but this is not the easiest to use application for some non-technical people. I like the editor in Snagit , because it easily allows you to lay out an image, but this is a paid application, and I'm looking for a free tool (which works on Windows).

This tool does not necessarily need a screen capture tool, as there are many options available , but it will not interfere with the tool.

What I would like to easily do is:

  • Add arrows to show which button was pressed to go from one screen to another.
  • Add callout text to offer suggestions for changing a section or moving an item.
  • Use different color / size markup elements

I found Pencil , but it is like overkill - I do not need full image editing, just an opportunity for someone to quickly and easily provide feedback.

Perhaps you can try ForeUI , if you like it, write me an email at vivi [at] foreui.com, I can send you a license for free :-)

Not free, but if you already have MS Office with OneNote, it is great for things like this imho. I think there is a free reader there, as usual.

If you really need quick and easy feedback, use a pen and paper.

Print screens and pass them on to those who need a user interface application in the team. Let them mark their heart and give them to you. I know that it makes me sound like a ludd, but this is really the most effective way.
