I run a creative agency. I have ADHD. And for years my camera roll was basically a second brain that had completely lost its mind.
I screenshot everything. It's how I think. References, UI patterns, color palettes, articles I mean to read, ideas that hit me at 11pm, things a client says that I know will matter later. If it's worth remembering, I screenshot it.
The problem is iOS gives you one folder and zero memory. So everything just... piles up. Thousands of images with no context, no organization, no way to find the thing you saved three weeks ago when you actually need it.
I'd spend ten minutes scrolling trying to find a single reference. Sometimes I'd give up and just screenshot it again.
That's not a storage problem. That's a retrieval problem. And for someone with ADHD, retrieval is everything.
So I built ScreenCap.
It's a privacy-first iOS app that turns your screenshot library into something you can actually use. You organize into stacks, add notes and URLs to images, batch select, export to PDF, and browse by calendar so you can trace your own thinking over time.
Nothing goes to the cloud. No account required. Everything lives on your device. That part was non-negotiable for me — I didn't want to build another app that hoovers up your data to survive.
The core idea is simple: your screenshots are already doing the work of capturing your world. ScreenCap just gives them somewhere to live.
I wrapped TestFlight beta last week and pushed to the App Store. Two days in, 16 downloads with zero paid distribution. Just people who felt the problem when they read about it.
If you live in your camera roll — designers, researchers, writers, students, ADHD brains, visual thinkers of any kind — I'd love for you to try it and tell me what's broken.
Happy to answer anything about the build, the decision to go privacy-first, or what's coming next.
