Screenshot Organizer watches for new macOS screenshots, creates a useful filename from visible text when possible and moves each file into the folder you choose.

Quick answer

Open Smart Automations, configure Screenshot Organizer, choose the destination folder and switch the automation on. Existing images stay untouched.

1. Choose a destination folder

Select a dedicated folder for organized screenshots. A folder picker is safer and easier than typing a path manually.

2. Choose smart or fallback naming

Smart naming reads useful visible text from the screenshot on your Mac. When no clear text is found, Tapquence uses the fallback filename with the date and time.

3. Switch the automation on

Once enabled, Screenshot Organizer watches the standard macOS screenshot location for new image files. It does not reprocess the files that were already there.

4. Check the first result

Take a test screenshot and confirm the name and destination. If a filename already exists, Tapquence adds a number instead of overwriting the previous file.

What stays local

Screenshot text recognition and file handling run locally on your Mac. Still avoid taking screenshots of passwords or information you do not need to store.

Frequently asked questions

Does it organize old screenshots?

No. It is intended for new screenshots created after the automation starts.

What if the screenshot has no useful text?

Tapquence uses the fallback filename you configured.

Can it overwrite another screenshot?

No. A naming conflict receives a number so the existing file remains intact.

Next step

Keep the automation off until the destination and fallback name are correct, then enable it and create one test screenshot.
