How does Slide Catcher Pro work?

Load a video file (MP4, MOV, or M4V), set your preferred time range and crop area, and click Extract. Slide Catcher Pro automatically detects unique frames, removes duplicates, and lets you export them as a clean PDF.

What video formats are supported?

MP4, MOV, and M4V. Works great with screen recordings and presentation captures.

All processing happens locally on your Mac. No data is sent to any server. No account required. No tracking. The app runs in Apple's App Sandbox for additional security.

What happens if I cancel my subscription?

PDFs you've already created are yours to keep. They're saved locally on your Mac. You can manage or cancel your subscription anytime in System Settings → Apple ID → Subscriptions.

Does it require an internet connection?

No. All processing happens offline. An internet connection is only needed for subscription verification through the App Store.

Can I choose which frames to include?

Yes. After extraction, you can review all frames in a grid view and deselect any you don't want before generating the PDF.

How is Slide Catcher Pro different from cloud-based slide extractors?

Most video-to-slides tools are cloud-based and require uploading your video to external servers, often with file size limits (100 MB–2 GB), duration limits, and credit-based pricing where each extraction costs credits. Slide Catcher Pro runs entirely on your Mac — no uploads, no file size limits, no duration limits, and no per-extraction charges. You also get features no cloud tool offers: time range selection, ROI cropping, and adjustable duplicate detection with fine-tuning options, all with unlimited retries at no extra cost.

Can I extract slides from just a portion of a video?

Yes. Use the timeline bar to set a precise start and end point before extracting. This is a feature unique to Slide Catcher Pro — other video-to-slides tools require you to process the entire video or trim it separately beforehand.

What if the extraction includes too many or too few frames?

You can adjust the duplicate detection sensitivity across four levels and further fine-tune extraction settings for precise control. Since everything processes locally, you can re-extract as many times as you like — no credits consumed and no reprocessing fees. You can also use ROI selection to crop out non-slide areas like webcam overlays or UI elements.

Are there file size or video length limits?

No. Since all processing happens locally on your Mac, there are no upload size limits and no video duration limits. The only constraint is your Mac's available storage and memory.

Can I use it with videos from online courses or streaming services?

Slide Catcher Pro is designed for videos you own or have permission to use. It processes local files only (MP4, MOV, M4V) and does not bypass DRM or any access restrictions.

Does it support Windows or Linux?

No. Slide Catcher Pro is a native macOS application that requires macOS 14.0 (Sonoma) or later. There is currently no Windows or Linux version.

Terms of Use

Effective Date: 2026/2/1
Last Updated: 2026/3/3

Please read these Terms of Use (“Terms”) carefully before using Slide Catcher Pro (“the App”). By downloading, installing, or using the App, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, do not download, install, or use the App.

1. Description of the App

Slide Catcher Pro is a general-purpose video frame extraction and PDF generation tool for macOS (“the App”). The App allows users to extract still image frames from video files and compile them into PDF documents.

The App is a neutral tool, comparable to a camera, scanner, photocopier, or screen capture utility. It performs a purely technical function — extracting image frames from video data — without regard to the nature, subject matter, or ownership of the content being processed.

All processing occurs entirely on the user’s device. The App does not upload, transmit, store, or share any user content to any server, cloud service, or third party.

The Developer reserves the right to modify, update, suspend, or discontinue any part of the App, including features and functionality, at any time and without prior notice, where reasonably necessary.

2. Acceptance of Terms

By using the App, you affirm that:

You are at least 18 years of age, or the age of legal majority in your jurisdiction, or are using the App under the supervision of a parent or legal guardian who agrees to these Terms;
You have the legal capacity to enter into a binding agreement;
You accept and will comply with these Terms.

3. User Representations and Warranties

By using the App, you represent and warrant that:

You own or have obtained all necessary rights, licenses, consents, and permissions to process any video files you load into the App, and to extract, reproduce, and use frames from such video files;
Your use of the App and any content processed through it complies with all applicable laws, regulations, and third-party rights, including but not limited to copyright, trademark, trade secret, and other intellectual property rights;
You will not use the App to infringe upon, misappropriate, or violate any third party’s intellectual property rights, privacy rights, or any other rights;
You are solely responsible for determining whether your use of the App with particular content is lawful in your jurisdiction;
You understand that the App is a general-purpose tool and that the Developer makes no representations regarding the legality of any particular use of the App;
You acknowledge that the Developer has no knowledge of, access to, or control over the content you choose to process with the App.

4. User Responsibility for Content

You bear sole and exclusive responsibility for all content you process using the App. This includes, without limitation:

Determining whether you have the legal right to process a given video file;
Ensuring that extracting frames from a video does not violate any applicable copyright, licensing agreement, terms of service, or other legal restriction;
Obtaining any and all necessary authorizations, licenses, or permissions from rights holders before processing their content;
Complying with all applicable laws governing the reproduction, distribution, display, and use of the extracted content;
Any and all consequences, damages, claims, or liabilities arising from your decision to process specific content.

The Developer does not and cannot monitor, review, approve, or control the content processed by users. The Developer has no obligation to verify the legality of any user’s content processing activities. The Developer does not monitor, review, or access user content and cannot verify how the App is used.

5. Prohibited Uses

You agree NOT to use the App to:

Reproduce, distribute, publicly display, publicly perform, or create derivative works from any copyrighted material without proper authorization from the rights holder;
Circumvent, disable, or interfere with any digital rights management (DRM), copy protection, or access control measures;
Process content that you do not have the legal right to access, copy, reproduce, or modify;
Distribute, sell, license, sublicense, or publicly share any output generated by the App from content to which you do not hold the necessary rights;
Process content in violation of any contractual obligation, including but not limited to non-disclosure agreements, licensing agreements, or platform terms of service;
Violate any applicable local, state, national, or international law or regulation;
Use the App in any manner that could give rise to civil or criminal liability;
Reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or otherwise attempt to derive the source code of the App;
Use the App in any manner that could damage, disable, overburden, or impair the App.

6. Nature of the App as a Neutral Tool

The App is a general-purpose image extraction tool. It is designed and intended for legitimate uses, including but not limited to: extracting frames from your own recorded presentations, processing videos you have created, and working with content for which you have obtained proper authorization.
The Developer does not encourage, promote, induce, or facilitate the use of the App for any purpose that infringes upon third-party intellectual property rights. The Developer does not intend the App to be used for copyright infringement.
The App is substantially capable of commercially significant non-infringing uses. The existence of potential misuse does not alter the App’s nature as a neutral tool.
The Developer does not have actual knowledge of any specific infringing activity by any user. The Developer does not monitor user activity, does not receive user content, and has no technical means to detect infringing use.

7. Intellectual Property

The App, including all source code, object code, graphics, user interface, design elements, and documentation, is the exclusive property of the Developer and is protected by copyright, trade secret, and other intellectual property laws.
This license does not grant you any rights to the Developer’s trademarks, service marks, trade names, or logos.
Your content remains yours. The Developer claims no ownership rights over any content you process through the App or any output generated by the App.

The Developer may modify subscription features or availability at any time and without prior notice, where reasonably necessary. Pricing and billing are determined and processed by Apple in accordance with Apple’s policies.

9. Disclaimer of Warranties

The App is provided on an “AS IS” and “AS AVAILABLE” basis, without warranties of any kind, either express or implied. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Developer disclaims all warranties, including but not limited to:

Implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement;
Warranties that the App will meet your requirements or expectations;
Warranties that the App will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free;
Warranties that the results obtained from use of the App will be accurate, complete, or reliable;
Warranties that any output generated by the App will not infringe the rights of any third party; and
Warranties regarding the legality of any particular use of the App or its output in any jurisdiction.

You acknowledge and agree that you use the App at your sole risk. The Developer does not warrant or guarantee the legality of any specific use of the App.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law.

10. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Developer (and its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, and licensors) will not be liable for any:

Indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages;
Loss of profits, revenues, data, goodwill, or other intangible losses;
Claims by third parties arising from or related to your use of the App, including intellectual property infringement claims;
Damages resulting from your processing of any content through the App;
Damages resulting from unauthorized access to or alteration of your data; or
Any other damages arising out of or related to your use of, or inability to use, the App,

whether such damages are based on warranty, contract, tort (including negligence), strict liability, or any other legal theory, and whether or not the Developer has been advised of the possibility of such damages.

In no event will the Developer’s total aggregate liability exceed the lesser of: (i) the amount you actually paid to the Developer for the App in the twelve (12) months immediately preceding the event giving rise to the claim, or (ii) USD $100.00.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law.

11. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Developer, its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, contractors, agents, licensors, and suppliers from and against any and all claims, demands, actions, damages, obligations, losses, liabilities, costs, debts, and expenses (including but not limited to reasonable attorney’s fees and court costs) arising from or related to:

Your use or misuse of the App;
Any content you process, extract, generate, distribute, or otherwise handle through the App;
Your violation of these Terms;
Your violation of any law, regulation, or third-party rights, including but not limited to intellectual property rights, privacy rights, and publicity rights;
Any claim that your use of the App or any output generated by the App caused harm or damage to any third party;

This indemnification obligation shall survive the termination of these Terms and your cessation of use of the App.

12. Copyright Infringement Claims

For U.S. users, notices may be submitted in accordance with the DMCA.

The Developer respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects users to do the same.
The Developer is not a hosting service, content platform, or intermediary. The App processes content locally on the user’s device. The Developer does not host, store, cache, transmit, or have access to any user content at any time.
Because the Developer has no access to user-processed content, the Developer cannot remove, disable access to, or take down any content processed by a user on their own device.
If you believe that your copyrighted work has been processed in a manner that constitutes copyright infringement, your claim is against the individual user who processed the content, not against the Developer or the App.
If you wish to report a concern regarding the App itself, you may contact us at: slidecatcherpro@gmail.com

13. Termination

These Terms are effective until terminated by either party.
You may terminate these Terms by ceasing all use of the App and deleting all copies from your devices.
The Developer may terminate your license to use the App at any time if you breach any provision of these Terms.
Upon termination, you must immediately cease all use of the App and destroy all copies in your possession.
Sections 4, 6, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12, 14, and 15 shall survive termination of these Terms.

14. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Japan, without regard to its conflict of law principles.
Any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or relating to these Terms, or the breach, termination, or invalidity thereof, shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Tokyo District Court (東京地方裁判所) as the court of first instance.
Before initiating any legal proceedings, both parties shall attempt to resolve disputes through good-faith negotiation for a period of not less than thirty (30) days.

15. General Provisions

Severability

If any provision of these Terms is found to be unlawful, void, or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, that provision shall be deemed severable from the remaining provisions and shall not affect their validity and enforceability. The unenforceable provision shall be replaced with a valid, enforceable provision that most closely matches the intent of the original provision.

Entire Agreement

These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and the Developer regarding the App and supersede all prior or contemporaneous agreements, understandings, negotiations, and discussions, whether written or oral.

Waiver

The failure of the Developer to enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. Any waiver of any provision of these Terms will be effective only if in writing and signed by the Developer.

Assignment

You may not assign or transfer these Terms or your rights hereunder, in whole or in part, without the Developer’s prior written consent. The Developer may assign these Terms without restriction.

Notices

Any notices to the Developer should be sent to slidecatcherpro@gmail.com. The Developer may provide notices to you through the App or via the email address associated with your Apple ID.

16. Changes to These Terms

The Developer reserves the right to modify these Terms at any time. When we make changes, we will update the “Last Updated” date at the top of this page. Changes may be made without prior notice, except where notice is required by applicable law. Changes will become effective immediately upon posting at this URL.

Your continued use of the App after the posting of revised Terms constitutes your acceptance of and agreement to the revised Terms. If you do not agree to the revised Terms, you must stop using the App.
