Known Issues
-
- For users using CloudApp: If CloudApp auto-upload is active, CloudApp sometimes uploads broken screenshots because DotSnap already moved the screenshot into a different folder. Since CloudApp became very slow since the past few months, this issue occurs more often than expected.
-
- Since Dropbox introduced an option to move screenshots automatically to your Dropbox folder, DotSnap runs into some issues here as well.
How DotSnap works
DotSnap works in the background and is compatible with your default Mac screenshot shortcut. It essentially just moves your files to the folder you set inside DotSnap as well as renames the file according to your setting in DotSnap. If you haven't activated the TimeStamp option, files with the same name will get a unique number added to the end.
