DumpPixels reads screenshot text on-device and saves it as an editable, searchable note. You confirm, and the screenshot goes to Recently Deleted. Biggest shots first. Nothing uploaded, no account. Scan and save free; clearing is a $19.99 one-time unlock.





Hi Product Hunt, I'm Seamus. I make small iPhone utilities under Pronounced GIF LLC, and DumpPixels is my second app on the App Store (after PhotoFloor).
Why I built it: most of my Photos library isn't photos. It's screenshots of text. Receipts, boarding passes, door codes, addresses, error messages. I kept every one "just in case," because I needed the words. The only thing holding the words was a full-size image.
So DumpPixels does one job:
1. It reads the text in a screenshot on your device. Nothing is uploaded, and there's no account.
2. You edit the text and save it as a small local note.
3. You confirm, and the screenshot goes to Recently Deleted. The note stays, and you can search it.
Choices I made on purpose:
- It never auto-deletes. Every clear goes through the iOS delete prompt.
- The biggest screenshots come first, so the heavy ones go first.
- It doesn't rewrite your text with an "AI summary." You get the words that were there.
- Scanning, OCR, and saving notes are free, so you can see whether it reads your screenshots before you pay. Clearing images is a one-time $19.99 unlock. No weekly or monthly plan.
Product Hunt offer: code PRODUCTHUNT gets the unlock for $9.99 instead of $19.99, for the first 500 people through Oct 17. Redeem here: https://apps.apple.com/redeem?ct...
One honest note: if iCloud Photos is on, a delete applies to every device in that library.
What would help me most: screenshots where the text comes out wrong, anything confusing in the clear flow, and whether $19.99 once feels fair.
Thanks for looking.
Seamus
