Overview
SnapGrab is a simplified screenshot tool that takes screenshots using MediaCapture intents. Using our floating button service, you can start the service and then navigate to any other app as usual, when you press the floating button, we'll grab a snap and save it!

How private is it?
Since the photos captured with SnapGrab are saved in the devices local app directory in an encrypted form, photos captured are secured and hidden. Attempts to view the photo without knowing the key won't work.

How does it work?
SnapGrab uses media capture intents introduced in one of the earlier versions of android, using these media capture intents, we analyze the screen and capture screenshots manually.

How do you use it?
⭐Start the app
⭐Grant access to the requested permissions
⭐Accept the Terms of Use/Privacy Policy
⭐On the home tab, click 'Start Service'
⭐Click 'allow'
⭐Click the floating blue button
⭐Go to the 'SNAPS' tab
⭐Export/Delete the photo.

Does it require root access?
NO! We made sure our service is offered on all non-rooted devices to ensure privacy and security

What is the 'Cloud Encryption Keys Service'?
Instead of offering free cloud storage for your screenshots, we offer a method of encrypting the photos you capture and hiding them in a secret, secure location on your device, however the keys used to encrypt the photos are stored on our servers. This offers a 2 way protection, to view the encrypted photos, you must know the password AND have the device where the photos are hidden in your physical possession.
