LongShot

Screenshot, double-tap the back of your iPhone, done. No ads.

Visit

iPhone's built-in full-page screenshot only works in Safari and a few apps. For chats, comment threads, receipts, and most apps, you're stuck sending five separate screenshots.

LongShot fixes that with the least possible friction: take a few overlapping screenshots, double-tap the back of your iPhone (via a Shortcut), and the stitched image is in Photos. You never open the app. If you do open it, the result is already waiting in preview.

It verifies that screenshots actually overlap before merging, so you don't get ghosting. Everything happens on your device: no uploads, no account, no ads, no analytics SDK. Built by a solo developer. iOS 16+.

Hi! I'm the developer. I built LongShot because I kept sending people 4 screenshots of one chat and hated it. Two things I cared about: it should just work without picking or aligning anything, and nothing should leave your phone. The part I'm proudest of is that it verifies the overlap before stitching, so you don't get ghosting. With a Shortcut on Back Tap you don't even open the app. Happy to answer anything about how the overlap detection works.
