The way to take a different number of screenshots using our iPhone or iPad is one of the easiest to execute, since we would only need to take use of the "Home" button combined with the one that will help us turn off the mobile device.
You will hear a small click immediately, which will indicate that the capture made on this iOS mobile device has been done correctly. To verify this, you would only have to go to your photographs so that you can begin to see each one of them distributed in the camera roll. However, If we have photographs and screenshots interspersed, It would be very difficult for us to carry out a selective separation to host some of them in our Dropbox service. Advantageously, this is possible if we use a third-party tool called "Drop Shot", which we can manage with a few tricks that we will mention below.
How does "Drop Shot" work on my iPhone or iPad?
In the first instance we are going to assume that we have a large number of photographs and screenshots saved on our mobile device with iOS, being practically difficult (not impossible) to separate all of them selectively. Now, since many people usually want to have these screenshots in their Dropbox cloud service, what we will do with "Drop Shot" once we install it will be just that, that is, upload only these latest images without the need to touch those that could instead be photographs.
For us it could be something completely incredible although, for the developer of this application it is not, who assures that his proposal (Drop Shot) has the ability to recognize which images are screenshots and which are photographs.
Link “Drop Shot” to our Dropbox service
Perhaps it is worth making the following recommendation, since Both Dropbox and Drop Shot need to be installed on our mobile device with iOS. It is also recommended that we have logged in with the respective Dropbox credentials, to avoid having to do so later when we go to use our tool in question.
When we execute "Drop Shot" we will be able to notice the presence of a screen very similar to the screenshot that we have placed at the top and where we are being asked link this tool with the Dropbox service. This will not take much time and when the process is finished, the tool will show all those images that belong to a screenshot. As we suggested a little above, "Drop Shot" has the ability to find only this type of images, leaving photographs aside. Here our work is practically completed, since we would only have to send all these image captures to Dropbox account or also, make a selection of only those that we want to send to said cloud service. When you have proceeded in this way, you can now close the application, since everything will be done in the background and without your intervention.
Save space consumed by these screenshots on iOS
When the entire process is finished we will receive a message through an additional screen, which comes from this "Drop Shot" mobile application.
The capture that we have placed at the top is the one that you could be seeing at a certain time; you would be asked right there What do you want to do with the images that have already been uploaded to Dropbox?Well, if you wish and to save some internal storage space, you can order all these screenshots to be deleted immediately. If you want to add a few more, you can use the second button. To verify that all images have been correctly uploaded to your Dropbox service, you only have to log in with your credentials, at which point You will see that a new folder was created, which has the name "Screenshots" and where all those image captures that we previously uploaded are saved.
