Take More Screenshots

ShareX

I use ShareX[0] to screenshot all my work. I have it set up so that CTRL-SHIFT-F6 makes a screenshot of a region and it's automatically uploaded to some shared hosting server. It's a lot of fun to see work back from years ago! [0] https://getsharex.com/.

Tropy

Tropy is an application to turn photos into documents and organize the items via collections. It’s free and open source. My partner’s research involves collecting images and they find it works well. https://tropy.org/.

Shottr

Can’t pass by without recommending my https://shottr.cc (app for Mac.) I’ve set a dedicated folder for screenshots and save there literally everything now — purchase receipts, important chat conversations, work in progress, reminders to myself. Agree with the author, screenshots are under-appreciated.

TimeSnapper

This looked interesting but my antivirus didn't like it as it detected "SWF.Exploit.Kit.Rig.tht.Talos" when downloaded from http://timesnapper.com/.

Time Sink

I've been happily using [Time Sink](https://manytricks.com/timesink/) by Many Tricks to do this for about a year now. It does not automatically merge into a timelapse, but this is accomplished easily with ffmpeg.

Apse

A paid tool in this direction is APSE (https://apse.io) which bills itself as a personal search engine that OCRs intermittent screencaps. I loved the idea, but in practice it lacked polish. I agree that additional metadata like foremost application filepath/url would take this to another level.
