The Screenshots library

Find, reopen, copy and tidy up every screenshot you have taken.

Every screenshot is saved to your library as soon as you take it. Open Screenshots under Library in the BestShot sidebar to see them all, newest first.

The Screenshots library with three screenshot cards, a search box and an Import button

Each card shows the screenshot's name, its size in pixels and when you took it. Type in Search screenshots to find one by name.

Note

BestShot never deletes a screenshot permanently. Anything you remove goes to your computer's Trash or Recycle Bin, so you can get it back.

Rename a screenshot

New screenshots are named with the date and time, such as "Screenshot 2026-10-16 at 10.02.11". To rename one, open it in Screenshot Studio and click its name at the top left. Press Enter to save the new name or Esc to cancel.

Where screenshots open

By default each new screenshot opens in a new tab of the BestShot window. To get just a small thumbnail you can click to edit, change Settings → General → After a shot to Show thumbnail only.

For editing, see Edit a screenshot in Screenshot Studio.
