You can paste screenshots directly into a lot of programs. Maybe people don't realize the many screenshot - keyboard shortcuts and modifiers that MacOS has?
For example, ⌘ + shift + 4 gets you a cursor you can drag and save a screenshot that saves to your desktop. If you add the control key to that it copies the screenshot, and then you can paste it into apps like iMessage, Messenger, Slack, JIRA, Preview etc. Adding the spacebar switches from a dragging screenshot to a camera icon that you can click on any window to get a screenshot for the whole window.
Using 3 instead of 4 gets you full screen screenshots, and again using the control key copies the screenshot instead of saving it to the desktop.
@shimmb Macbook user for 6 years, didn't have a clue. Thank you!

@shimmb Yeah, I was trying to understand what the advantage of this app is and why it is being upvoted so much; Especially at a cost of $9.99 and the fact that I can do almost anything this can do using the built-in features of the OS...
You can also change where screenshots are saved and the file format using some Terminal commands.
I still don't see what the appeal of this app is.

@shimmb I had no clue about the spacebar and ctrl options. Great tip, thanks!

My thoughts, as well. Though, this does give you easy access through the menubar, which is nice!
Report
@shimmb Agree, the Mac's keyboard shortcut for screenshots is much easier to use.

I was about to ask "Why are you different from Quickshot?", then I realized you are the same people :D
So, my question is: I already bought quickshot, why should I upgrade (and pay another 10 bucks) for Screenie?
Quite misleading to have a "download" button with no prices shown and then give the user a $9.99 paywall afterwards. Otherwise seems like a nice product.
@peedutuisk Sorry that you thought it was misleading, we absolutely never intended that! We love Product Hunt and want you guys to love the app too! For ProductHunt only we're giving you guys 90% off with the offer code "PH" on our site, keep giving us your feedback we love it!
@ohadaviv@peedutuisk Sorry, this is definitely not supposed to happen, it was a problem with the overlay provided by our payment service. We've already fixed it on the site, and made the overlay appear like it's actually supposed to and the close button work correctly. Thanks so much for noticing that, we appreciate your feedback!

@jshchnz Kudos, Josh. I actually rediscovered Screenie when I saw the Pearl app featured today, thought about how many screenshots I take at work and decided to buy this. Then I looked for a promo code in this thread and found my own dismissive comment. I'm a changed man ;) Just purchased it.
Hi Product Hunt! We really appreciate your feedback and are always looking at ways to improve our product and our pricing structure! We're glad you like Screenie and we want you to be able to see how awesome it really is, so type in "PH" for 90% off to get the app for just 99¢!
@jshchnz great app. you should mention the discount in the description OR have this comment pinned

@jshchnz I'm considering trying it out. But where should type the "PH" into?
Report
Nice simple idea, but is there really value here at $9.99? I'm not sure that pricing model is right when with a couple of extra clicks I can do the same for free
This seems like it could improve workflow and I appreciate your discount for Product Hunters. That being said, a price point of $9.99 seems hefty. How did you reach you reach this price point?

I just purchased the tool. But does not it allow me to send screenshots taken into clipboard ? It supports only those screenshots that are taken as a file? If not, pretty useless.
