Screenshot is a digital image of what can be seen on a computer screen, television or other image output device. People use screenshots for many different purposes, but finding screenshots after shooting may not be easy. Mozilla has developed a solution to that problem.

ScreenshotGo is a screenshot management tool, allowing you to capture, organize, search and share text from screenshots on your phone. Although Mozilla has developed ScreenshotGo, it is not related to its browser. So you do not have to install Mozilla Firefox on your phone to use this application.

How does ScreenshotGo work?

ScreenshotGo automatically collects any screenshot you take on your device. After you record the image, there is a message at the top asking if you want to go into the application and arrange a screenshot into a collection. You can turn off this Ask to Sort option in the settings.

When you open the application, your last 5 screenshots will be at the top, with a button to view all photos. Below that, there is a list of collections. Collections are folders for you to create groups for similar images. The application comes with collection folders that have been made for shopping, news, articles and chat history. You can also create your own collections. When you open a gallery, the screenshots will be displayed in a grid, consisting of 3 columns.

Organize each screenshot into collections or tap and hold to select multiple photos at once. Click the icon at the top of the folder with the arrow and select the collection you want to use.
