I take a lot of screenshots in my role as PM – taking screenshots of apps I’m working on, collecting UI inspiration or documenting bugs.

Since 2015 I’ve collected about 10.000 screenshots and I often want to check a dialog or edge-case. But finding the right old screenshot takes forever.

Enter Screenie 2: it performs optical character recognition on your screenshots so you can simply enter the text that might be in the image and it works really well!

It’s also just a really convenient way to quickly grab a screenshot you’ve taken earlier: you can assign Screenie to a global shortcut (I used ⌃ + s) to quickly drag your screenshot off the pane, or the last image you took off the menu bar item.

It’s a cool, simple utility in the tradition of the best macOS apps and available directly from the developer’s website.

You can donate to the developers there as well, which I highly recommend you do.
