macOS Screenshot Organizer
Organize screenshots automatically. Find any one fast.
DropShot lives in your menu bar and processes new screenshots in the folders you choose: it reads text, creates clear filenames, and builds a local search index. Everything stays on your Mac.
Search recent screenshots, preview them, and drag them back into your work.

Why DropShot
The hard part is not saving screenshots. It is finding the right one later.
DropShot processes new screenshots locally on your Mac: it recognizes text, creates readable filenames, and builds a searchable library. No more digging through the desktop or random folders.
Screen Shot, IMG, and temporary images pile up together, so you end up relying on thumbnails and memory.
Screenshot text is indexed locally, filenames become readable, and useful captures are easy to recover.
Core Features
Four things handled quietly in the background.
Keep taking screenshots as usual. DropShot handles the organizing, naming, and searching afterwards.
Read text inside screenshots
Text recognition runs on your Mac, so both Chinese and English text can be searched later.
Rename files clearly
DropShot names screenshots with app, keyword, and date details, so folders stay readable.
Bring in clipboard images
Images copied from tools like WeChat or Lark can be imported, organized, and deduplicated.
Find screenshots from the menu bar
Open the shelf or library, then filter by text, app, or date without leaving your current task.
Workflow
Choose your folders once. Let DropShot handle the rest.
DropShot does not change how you capture screens. You keep taking screenshots, copying images, or dragging files in; it turns those materials into a searchable local library.

Recognize and rename automatically
After a new screenshot is saved, DropShot reads its text and creates a clear, repeatable filename.
-
03
Search and preview anytime
Open the screenshot shelf or library from the menu bar, then find images by text, app, or date.
Privacy First
Your screenshots stay on your Mac.
DropShot does not require an account and does not upload screenshots to a server. Text recognition, thumbnails, search indexes, and settings are processed locally.
The app privacy details state that no user data is collected.
Images, recognized text, and indexes remain on your Mac.
Within the macOS sandbox, DropShot only processes folders you select.
