Screenshot Viewer is a screenshot viewer mod for Fabric and NeoForge that lets you browse everything you have captured without alt-tabbing to a folder. It runs on the player's side only, so it belongs on your own machine and not on a hosting setup. LGatodu47 made it, along with the CatConfigMC library it uses for settings.

Settings are editable in-game through CatConfigMC, so you can adjust the mod without leaving Minecraft.

- A button in the pause menu opens it too.
- A key binding can be configured as a shortcut.

Questions about Screenshot Viewer.
3 questions
How do I open the screenshot screen?
Use the button on the title screen or in the pause menu. You can also configure a key binding as a shortcut. Once the screen is open, click a screenshot to enlarge it, then use the buttons on the left and right to move to the next or previous one.
Can I install Screenshot Viewer on a multiplayer host?
No. The mod is required on the player's side and is unsupported for hosting. Install it on the machine you play on, alongside Fabric or NeoForge, because a mod runs only with the loader its build was made for.
Does Screenshot Viewer work with Forge?
Older Forge releases of the mod exist, but they ended in May 2024. Current work continues on Fabric and NeoForge, so pick one of those loaders if you want the newest release of the mod.
