As a kid, whenever we went to the Apple Store I'd run to the back to play the demo games on the iMacs. Now, in an absolutely crazy, full-circle moment, my own game @BlackboxPuzzles is one of those games on thousands of iPads in hundreds of Apple Stores around the world.

So so so stoked to release my very first Mac app! Nameshot: A tiny app that solves a big problem: naming your messy stash of "Screenshot 2025-12-15 at 06.59.24" nonsense entirely on device via Apple Intelligence. Your first desktop Tidy-up is on the house and I would love to hear all your feedback! RTs appreciated! nameshot.app

Thanks! I will let you know it that is the case :) I made a little Substack note about Nameshot substack.com/@stinie/note/c-…

Well, first of all, feel free to yell at @Apple for their craptastic App Store search.

I often send Dropbox links, so I replace the spaces between words with a period so the DB URLs aren't littered with %20. So I'd want that as an option.

There’s already a setting to do hyphens or underscores! Would that work?

Congratulations, that's really cool! I built something similar for my own use. It automatically renames screenshots, and with a keyboard shortcut, it moves all the screenshots from my desktop to a specified folder. Very handy. I take a lot of screenshots.

Nice! Why not just change the folder your screenshots go to?

Maybe 30 generic SSs I had, and it at least came close to what I'd have used on....maybe 10 (?). The AI just isn't good enough, though. e.g., these are all the same Audi A3 Sportback (and I often want to look through screenshots for A3 or Golf or Sportwagen).

Thanks! This is helpful feedback to have. It’s really built for screenshots more than photos. I can see how some of these angles would be tougher to figure out without context, maybe there’s some way to understand these photos kind of go together… is this your main use case?

free? 5.99 aint free in my book

Your first clean-up of your desktop or any folder of 9999+ screenshots is free, and then all renames are free for 7 days once you first use the app.

Loved Big Walk so much that as a memento of 100%ing it I 3D printed all our friend's in-game characters to give them which was a fun surprise. The light ball even lights up with a coin battery! (you should grab a group of friends and play it)

Thanks for your support Fabio! Would love to hear what you find missing if anything so I can add it!

You’re charging for something that is free on Mac ?

macOS doesn't automatically name screenshots as you take them, can't rename entire folders, and doesn't learn from your corrections, plus a bunch more. For some that may be worth a one-time lifetime purchase but doesn't have to be for you :)

Oh the other best part in case this wasn't clear—It works WITHOUT wifi. The app doesn't even have a network entitlement! No analytics either. This is the peace of mind I expect from apps like this!!

i'd keep timestamps alongside generated screenshot names so capture order survives renaming

You can set this in settings!!

100% same. Some of the most fun I've had online in years and it's crazy to see them get skewered for this.
Feel bad for the Big Walk devs, it's probably game of the year for me. Really remarkable to see how people outside of the programming industry are unaware how much it's completely flipped on its head over the last ~18 months

joined anthropic a few months ago! had a lot of fun working on whiteboards—enjoy :)

With Claude Whiteboards, talk through a messy plan and Claude lays it out on a board your team can edit. With Claude Sheets, ask for a tracker or a budget and you get a working spreadsheet you can all keep building. In beta on paid plans.

I've been wanting a tool like this for ages. Some improvements I'd make but a great V1 and instant buy. Great work @warpling

yeah, it does the name grabbing but for example I like taking quick screenshots of family when im on FaceTime with them, and in that case it sort of tries to describe smth like "girl smiling at someone"

Yeah I have been seeing that too. I'll look into what I can do!

I’ve been needing this! I’ve had Claude do it on a few, but never wanted to give full folder access.

This is great, and I love the idea. The only problem I see, is I’d rather have Nameshot rename the file when I download it. Arc used to do this. Or do it when I take the screenshot and it saves.
