If anyone is testing: try searching for things like "receipt", "IBAN", or any word you remember from a screenshot — that’s where it becomes really useful.


Thanks!

It works by scanning your screenshots on-device and extracting text from them.

Once indexed, you can search any keyword (like IBAN, message, product name, crypto, etc.) and instantly find the screenshot that contains it.

Everything stays on your device — nothing is uploaded.

I built it because I had thousands of screenshots and couldn’t find anything when I needed it.

Would love to hear your thoughts if you try it!


Hey, this seems really cool and functional.

Great idea, i feel this can be used in many use cases. One limitation I find is image searches like searching for screenshots that dont have text.


Hi HN,

I built this app because I had thousands of screenshots (IBANs, messages, crypto trades) and couldn't find anything when I needed it.

This app scans screenshots and lets you search text instantly.

No cloud, everything works on-device.

Would love your feedback
