ScreenStash

You screenshot everything โ€” recipes, receipts, Wi-Fi passwords, gift ideas, workout plans. Then they vanish into your camera roll, never to be found again. ScreenStash gives every screenshot a home. ORGANIZE LIKE IT'S FUN Import your screenshots and file them onto visual boards with one tap. The Stash button learns where things go โ€” receipts go where your receipts live. Made a mistake? Undo is always one tap away. AN INBOX THAT REACHES ZERO New screenshots land in your Inbox. File them, and they leave the pile. The pile only shrinks โ€” so you always know what's left to sort, and clearing it feels great. SEARCH THE TEXT INSIDE YOUR SCREENSHOTS ScreenStash reads every screenshot with on-device text recognition. That recipe from March? Type "chicken." The beach house Wi-Fi? Type "wifi." Everything you've ever saved, instantly findable. BOARDS THAT SORT THEMSELVES Six smart boards automatically group receipts, recipes, travel documents, codes & Wi-Fi, places, and shopping โ€” no filing required. Adjust anything by hand. CLEAN UP YOUR CAMERA ROLL After importing, ScreenStash offers to delete the originals from Photos โ€” only with your confirmation, and only after every screenshot is verified safe inside the app. Reclaim gigabytes. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No accounts, and no server of ours ever sees your screenshots. Text recognition runs on your iPhone, and your library stays on your iPhone. The one thing ScreenStash measures is which ad brought you here and whether it led to a subscription โ€” that's how a small app knows where to spend. It's a device identifier and a purchase event, never your screenshots or anything found inside them. iOS asks your permission first, and declining changes nothing about how the app works. FREE AND PRO Free is the full app: search, boards, one-tap filing โ€” and a daily import allowance that never runs out. 100 screenshots land the day you install, then 50 more every day. Forever. Free. Sitting on years of screenshots? ScreenStash Pro imports your entire library at once โ€” plus auto-import, smart boards, and iCloud backup to your own private iCloud. One $19.99 purchase. No subscription, ever. Yours for life. Requires iOS 18 or later.
