LarsBoris@sixcolors A screenshot app is something I didn't know I wanted. I hate screenshots (and wallpapers) being in Photos, they don't belong together IMO. I doubt Apple would ever do something like that though.
Nit@LarsBoris @sixcolors I actually like the integration. With the Screenshots ‘Media Type’ within Photos now (I pin it so it’s near the top) you can search just screenshots for things like receipts or specific text. And create Reminders.
I also use screenshots as a quick way to crop pictures.
I guess if they kept the media type section I could ignore a dedicated app. Win-win for both types of users.
I also just saw I somehow have over 13,000 screenshots.
@NitP @sixcolors it’s not a big deal, but I never go to the app to see photos and screenshots. It’s one or the other (usually the former). Ever just browse through your photos from a few years ago in your library and run into a bunch of screenshots? They don’t belong in my photo library.
Another pet peeve with photos, it making a wallpaper a “featured” photo. But this goes back to Apple needs a new Aperture.
@LarsBoris @sixcolors Yeah, I guess it’s down to usage patterns.
I wouldn’t really ever just scroll my library so wouldn’t bump into screenshots. Usually search or use the map. I’m also obsessive about having Albums for events.
It also reminds that Smart Albums still aren’t a thing on iOS. Could easily filter out screenshots (and receipts, documents etc.) to create scroll friendly view of actual photos.
